Warm and snug (and very packable) jacket. I have a down sweater and a nano puff, but this is my spring morning go to. It's super portable and light and just warm enough!
love this jacket. light as a feather but so perfect for spring cool weather in maine. in 50s, even 40s, it was perfect. the small fits a 115 pound woman well. trim but with enough room for a light weight fleece beneath if needed.
I love these light weight jackets. They are great to pack on a trip when you don't know exactly kind of weather you might deal with as they keep you warm but are easy to pack. They fit great too!
Great jacket. Super lightweight but warm. I usually wear a vest underneath so I don't need more than that for most of what Colorado weather throws at me. More of a straight cut jacket to the hips. Wouldn't mind a little flair at bottom to give a little more room but understand that the jacket can be a great layering piece under a shell an... Read Mored the flair might not be desirable.
Such an incredible, thin, light layer. Works great under my raincoat! My only concern is that the fabric is too thin and weak - mine already has a few small holes and I have not used it enough for that to be happening. I want to love this jacket so badly - it is perfect other than the durability.
Hi Zoe, thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We're really happy to hear that you've been enjoying the jacket and its worked as a layer under your raincoat. With that said, we're sorry that its developed some holes. We'd suggest using some tenacious tape to patch up the small holes so that the insulation doesn't start escaping from the jacket. Also, for bigger holes you can send the jacket to us for [repair](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html). Lastly, your satisfaction is always guaranteed so if you don't feel the jacket is holding up to your expectations you're welcome to [return](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html).

Surprisingly warm
I am pleasantly surprised at how warm this coat is given its thin and lightweight design. I live in a pretty windy area and have not once had an issue with the wind penetrating through this coat. Also, the pockets are nice and deep, so I'm not constantly worrying about my things falling out of them. I am loving it so far!
So lightweight it feels like you arent wearing a jacket, yet so warm at the same time!! I live in Colorado and spend 365 days a year outdoors, this jacket works well in a range of temps; fitted enough to work as a mid layer when its below 0 or on its own well below freezing. Im 60 tall and most womens specific jackets are too short in the arms; Pat... Read Moreagonia has solved that and the Micro Puff Hoodie fits like a dream. Love, love, love.
Love this jacket for all kinds of weather by itself or layered with a heavier jacket if needed. Packs nicely and is very light weight. I love that it covers my bum for cold walks with the pup!
This jacket is super lightweight, but don't let that fool you!!! The warmth, and wind blocking ability is beyond amazing. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars: for my petite frame the arms are long and somehow the bottom of the jacket tries to ride up.

If they had a petite small I'd exchange it (bought a xs) so i could fit a sweatshirt under it.

Initially I ordered a Medium. It is hard to figure out sometimes because I am in between sizes (S/M). Received the jacket and I liked it but the sleeves were super long and the overall fit was a bit too loose. Called Customer Service and in a couple of minutes a size Small was sent to me. The return was super simple and the size Small, which I rece... Read Moreived a couple days later, fits perfectly.
Ok, fit. Jacket fits great on its own or with a sweatshirt or light sweater underneath. Purchased with the hood that fits well just in case there are some rain drops or gusts of wind when checking out the surf. Also, a fantastic travel jacket as it is super light and compact.
Good on you Patagonia for another useful product that I will use for a longtime. (FYI-I my first synchilla jacket from the 80s is in great condition and I still use it). Saludos
Ill preface this with the fact that I HATE coats. Im the weird person who is always cold and hates the cold but also hates tons of clothing.

I bought it ... Read Moreafter buying my toddler a Patagonia coat this winter and realizing how amazing they are. Super happy with my purchase. You have a forever customer.
This is my 2nd micro puff jacket. I love it for active sports and casual wear. My favorite jacket. For traveling in Scandinavian countries, it is very light, wind resistant and versatile.
At first I was worried about its light jacket, will be cold in Lake Tahoe. But! Its super warm. I purchased S and XS. End up keep XS. Cant really fit sweat shirt inside. But enough for California. Customer service was super kind and awesome too. Will purchase another one for my husband.
For a light weight travel jacket, it's ok. But I don't think the appearance compares well to the other Patagonia products I own or have purchased. I may feel differently after a few more times of wearing it.
I love everything about this jacket! It fits perfectly. It is the perfect length, and it is super comfortable. The color is very pretty and it gives me just the right amount of warmth. I'm very happy with my purchase!
I operate a goat dairy in the mountains of NC. I am up early every morning to milk and feed the goats. My micro puff hood is the perfect jacket for my morning chores. Keeps me comfortable in a wide range of temps.
Keeps me warm during my night runs and afternoon walks. Pretty much take it everywhere I go. I am short and have a large front area that is hard to zip with with smaller sizes. The large fits along the chest area and is long everywhere else. With that, I like that I can easily fold the arms and torso to fit my unique needs. The hood also stays put ...

Warm but runs very small in the arms
Let me start by saying I have just about every variety of patagonia puff jacket, I love and abuse them all. I have an athletic, climber build and am a Med in every other patagonia jacket. However, this one is not designed for someone with shoulders or biceps. I swear I'm going to split the elbow if I move too quickly. Definitely a little bumme...

Light coat & still very warm
I bought this as a lighter coat to wear when hiking & it keeps me warm while not making me too hot during activity. I'm 5'2" and 145lbs and the Medium fits perfectly.
I purchased this jacket to replace my 10 year old Nano Puff. I was looking for a lightweight, insulated jacket for walking dogs, hiking and wearing around town. I read that this jacket is even lighter and warmer than the Nano, but I feel like the Nano is better insulated. I wore this jacket for a few hours in wet, mid-30s temps and was quite cold d... Read Moreespite having 2 long sleeve layers underneath. I also did not care for the fit as much since the arms and body are quite a bit longer than my Nano Puff. This jacket will probably work well for someone who wants a lighter weight coat but was not warm enough for my needs. I am exchanging for a different jacket.
I had a Nanno Puff jacket and needed to replace it. Spoke to your representative and they suggested I try this one. I usually dislike hoods. I play paddle all winter love the jacket and the hood is not in the way. Fits well with two layers underneath. Light but warm....Great addition.
I love this jacket. It's such a nice top layer and/or layering piece. It's a great weight and the arms are long enough for me which I many times have trouble finding. I also love Patagonia's dedication to the environment!
Much less puffiness than I was expecting. I know thats the point, but I was still so surprised! It keeps the heat in and a medium is great for layering or wearing alone. Ive been wearing it in the Tennessee mountain winter and just layering it over my better sweater if its on the colder side. If Im being active it definitely traps the heat.
I love this coat so much its the perfect warmth level for hiking and climbing and fits nice and close to the body for everyday wear. Cant think of any coat that compares in comfort warmth and style!
Nice warmth to weight ratio, fit in shoulders is off
I just got this jacket in the trash bag black color and mostly like it... I'm almost 5'9" so I like the length, much better length than my older ultralight down hoody jacket. I went for XL because some of the reviews mention it being tight in the shoulders and I found that to be the case too. Like strangely tight compared to the body... Read More of the jacket which is actually too loose for me. The upper arms are pretty tight too. There is no way I could rock or ice climb with this on but I usually use my nano air for that anyway. I'm keeping it because I wanted a black jacket and it'll work great under my ski jacket or hiking and just casual wear. Range of motion in shoulders is limited so nothing using the upper body for me. If you don't have broad shoulders then you may not have this problem!
This is a wonderful really lightweight jacket. I weight 105 lbs and probably should have gotten a small. The medium is quite roomy but will use a Patagonia vest underneath in really cold weather.
I wanted to love this coat, I did, but the proportions were just OFF. The seam line at the shoulder is very non-traditional, and the shoulders bunched up (like shoulder pads). It was hard to see this in the photos online. In addition, the length of the coat was too long for a petite frame (5'2"), and rode up while I was wearing the coat. ...

This coat is light, sheds Oregon spitting-rain well, and packs small. The arms and length are longer than similar jackets but I kind of like that.

It doesnt inhibit my peripheral vision at all which I really like. The only thing I dont like is the way the collar fits. It feels like it comes up too high and scratches under my chin. That is why I gave it only 4 stars instead of 5.
I love the fit and look but Im cold in it. Its nice that it isnt bulky, but it is too lightweight. I have a Patagonia sweatshirt that seems to provide more warmth than this coat. Just running errands around town Im cold in it. I love having the hat for all the rainy Washington state days but am overall disappointed. It feels thin and for the price ... Read Moredoesnt provide warmth. Cute but not practical.
I am looking for a lightweight down hoody in grey or beige. I bought the micro puff since you did not have lightweight down (down sweater) in grey. I hope youll have it next season so I can buy.
This jacket fits great and looks really good on. Kept me nice and warm during the unseasonably cold weather this year. Love that I can roll it up and put it in my purse.
Warm, lightweight, easy to pack. Arms 1/2 too long for my arms (although I have long arms and legs for my height) and body of jacket tends to ride up. Smaller size would be tight across my shoulders and chest.
I am just under 5'4" and found the jacket long in the sleeves. I have to roll my sleeves up. I probably should have ordered a large instead. It also falls above my thighs which is pretty long for me. Aside from that, it's a great jacket.
I love shopping at Patagonia. The products are fantastic! The customer service above and beyond! The integrity and philosophy of the company is admirable!
I have a few of the nano hoodies. This micro puff hoody is a little warmer and more stylish. I voted this as 'true to size' but I'm an athletic (ie bulkier w a chest) 5'7 ... and the M fits perfectly if not a little big so maybe it runs a bit bigger? But it fits me perfect so if you're on the fence between L and M, go M.
I've wanted this jacket for a long time and finally got one. I love it. It really is so light and a great layer under a shell for skiing.

I will say that the sleeve tore within the first two weeks when I brushed it against a wooden picnic table, leaving a 1-inch hole (easily patched with some tech fabric repair tape). So, yes, it's delicate. Just be aware of that and aim to use it with a shell or be very careful. I would NOT use this climbing.
I had the 2018 version of Micro Puff Hoody in XS. It was boxy, too big, drafty and left me not stoked to throw it on. Fast forward to 2021, I swapped out at store for latest version and got size XXS. I now LOVE it. It keeps me warm, it's a great closer-to-body fit, and looks MUCH nicer on me. I am now SUPER stoked and have been wearing it non ... Read Morestop. Thrown over a single wool base layer top, I am toasty warm in 20F weather. Couldn't be happier and so grateful I was able to swap out for new version and size XXS is now available! Yay! It's definitely warmer than the Nano Puff which I tried on in the store, and I love the "down"like synthetic structure of the Micro Puff. Feels airy like down, yet will hold up to wetter weather. I am now a super fan of the Micro Puff! Thank you, Patagonia!
I was looking for a thin jacket that I could fit under my larger Patagonia coat for extra warmth and head protection and this is it! I did buy on sale as my budget requires and well worth it.

We thank you for this insightful review on our Women's Micro Puff Hoody. We value your feedback and will consider it for future versions.

Perfect fit!
Love this coat! My zipper broke after 2 years. I brought the coat in to get the zipper repaired and they gave me a brand new coat! What a great company!
I ordered this in Gypsum Green which looks like the green in a polished seashell. The fit is great, the shoulders have a raglan cut and the arms have an articulated seam for ease of movement. It is wind proof and cozy warm with a single layer underneath in 40-50 degrees at the ocean. Pockets inside and out are super practical. Very, very happy with... Read More it!
This jacket is a great mid layer, or even an outer layer for moderate activity level. Hood fits over my ski helmet, yay! Very happy with it, so light and cozy.
I wrote one review of the Micro Puff earlier, but I hadn't yet tested it snowshoeing, hiking and running in 30-degree weather. It's been so exceptional I wanted to write another review after I bought a second one in another color. Not only does the hood work brilliantly to allow full visibility and mobility while dialing up the warmth, bu... Read Moret as I work out it continues to hold in all my heat, even as I sweat. I do sometimes layer this with a couple long sleeve wool shirts, maybe a vest, in the snow to stay warm when I am stationary for longer periods, but I continue to be amazed at how warm I stay -- even as someone who is always cold -- despite the feather-weight of the jacket. As a running jacket in the snow, it has been a little trickier b/c it does hold in so much heat and sweat that I get hot, but because it's so light to tie around my waist I do this as security in case I get too far from home and get cold. And, given the versatility and packability, it will come with me on every backpacking trip from now on.
I love this jacket except that the elastic trim that is around the sleeves and hood (a plus) is also around the bottom of the jacket (not a plus). I dont like the snug feeling as I ski and walk around my hips; is sometimes creeps up.
Thanks for the feedback on our Women's Micro Puff Hoody, we're sorry that the trim along the hem has been bothersome for you. If you're interested in sizing up, you can get started on an exchange [here](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html).

No need to say how great Patagonia's gear is, so I'll just talk about the fit. I'm 5'2, 120# and I originally ordered the medium. I have a big chest so I didn't want it too tight. It was too big so then I returned it and got the small. I almost wonder if the xs would have fit.

Love it. Im not sure how Patagonia changed it but fits better. Maybe a tad longer. Does not pucker in the chest now- zipper. Terrific layer. Works when slightly wet. So lightweight. Missing out if you dont use this!
I recently purchase a new micro puff hoody in size S in order to wear more clothes underneath. (I usually wear size XS)

I bought this for my wife because I have the mens version and love it. Looks great on her and she really enjoys it, but I was kind of disappointed how much insulation was in the jacket compared to the mens version. The insulation is very thin and its not nearly as warm as mine.

I bought this to replace my old size large Nanopuff thats too big for me now. I bought both in a medium to compare fit. The Micro Puff has an overall slimmer fit. Its also a bit longer.

Amazing warmth for such a light jacket!

Hello Juliane, we're truly sorry this didn't work out. For the Micro Puff, we developed a unique pattern unlike traditional synthetic jackets and it’s unfamiliar pattern lines can sometimes fit or drape unlike other similar fit products. You are most welcome to return it for a refund/merchandise credit if you'd like. Please also feel free to take a look at our [Nano Puff](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-nano-puff-hoody/84227.html), which uses a more traditional pattern block. We will continue working hard towards being inclusive to all body types.

Hey Morgan, thanks for sharing your feedback with us! We designed this jacket to make it the lightest, most packable jacket so it is not as warm as the Down Sweater Jacket.

Nice jacket - too tight
I'm a shorter, curvier woman and I've been wearing Patagonia for three decades. However, this jacket, like so many products are designed for taller, thinner women. This is too tight in the hips and snug in the arms. I tried large and it was just too big (but snug in the hips). I keep wishing that someday Patagonia will remember us curvier...

Super light-weight warmth & packable!
I bought the orange. I love the bright color & I will be able to layer this under my ski shell this winter.
I am very dedicated to the Patagonia brand and have many Patagonia jackets. I heard that this model has great warmth to weight ratio so bought a jacket on line. I was very disappointed with the cut/look of the jacket and decided to return it. I never got a chance to evaluate its warmth to weight ratio.
I was so excited to see this on sale, so I snapped it up immediately. I always wear a small and have tried the x-small but always found it too small. Sadly, that's not the case with this jacket. When I went to exchange it was no longer on sale even though the sale hadn't ended. Just bad luck, I guess.
Thanks for leaving us a review. Please reach out to our [Customer Service Team](https://help.patagonia.com/s/). They'll be happy to set you up with an exchange and price match what you originally paid.

Love this puffy
Great fit and great warmth for the weight. Used this jacket for cool evenings during two week-long backpacking trips in Alaska this summer. Looking forward to using it as a layer for skiing this winter. Definitely warmer than the Nano Puff jacket.
Great insulating layer! I swap it out with a Patagonia Down Sweater Vest for Spring skiing (in the Seattle area), other than that it's my go-to over my Cap Air base layers and under my ski shell. I highly recommend the Micro Puff Hoody!
I have this and the Nano Puff, both in size large. This is lighter and the warmth is comparable between the jackets, but it's the fit that's the thing that ruins this one for me. While the Nano hits at the hip and is cut like a true "regular" fit, the Micro Puff claims it's also a "regular" fit, however I find it ... Read Moreto run very long and cut more in the "trim" or "athletic" fit style. It's markedly trimmer when compared to the Nano and sits a full 3 inches below my hips. I imagine for someone taller than my 5'6" frame, this may work, but it's just too long for me to do much in without rolling it under. Love the lightweight, however the cut, or perhaps just the claim of a "regular" cut, forces this jacket to the back of my closet. But, maybe it will work for you if long and trim is what you're looking for.
I love this jacket! Its so warm for its weight and has a great athletic fit. I bought this for an early season desert kayaking trip that was forecast to be very chilly. It met and exceeded my expectations for coziness and comfortable fit. To top it off, the green color is beautiful. Im sure Ill use this a ton in winter as well; it packs down tiny a... Read Morend will be a fixture in my BC ski pack. Definitely recommend.
The micro puff works great as a light outer layer that can handle some rain and mist and still insulate. It works great as insulator under a rain jacket. I usually need a Tall size for arm length but the sleeves are perfect. The hood also fits well and works well under a rain jacket hood.
As a busy mom that's active with my kids: running, hiking, biking. This jacket is light weight and awesome. I like the pink color its so fun. It works great for our Montana summers when the evenings get cool.

Read Morend will be a fixture in my BC ski pack. Definitely recommend.
It is light like advertised, but in normal use, it gets puncture holes in the sleeves. The insulation is coming out of the puncture holes. It also does not breathe. I usually don't have a problem getting sweaty but I do every time I wear this skiing. So I've demoted it to around town use and taken it out of my backcountry ski pack.
We are so sorry to hear about the punctures in that jacket. Similar to down products, our Micro Puff insulation can sometimes come through the stitching and stitch holes. To fix it yourself in instances where it is small fibers, you can break them off. If it is a larger white clump of insulation, we suggest you try to pull it back into the jacket by pinching it from behind and pulling the fabric forward. You can also cut the larger white clump with scissors, but be extremely careful not to cut the fabric or the stitch. Nonetheless, you if you find your are unsatisfied with that jacket because of this and the breathability, you are more than welcome to [send](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html) it back to us. Thank you so much for the comments!

So light and WARM
I got this jacket to be a mid-layer under a shell for ski trips and to wear day to day at home. It fits great and is unbelievably light, for sure, but it is also amazingly warm considering the light weight. I love it and look forward to wearing it for years to come.
This is my go to jacket for everything. It's light and warm and packs down small. It also fits well and looks great. I almost never leave the house without it. I also have an older nano puffy. From what I can tell they are about the same for warmth but this one (micro) is definitely lighter. I do miss the internal zipper pocket (which the nano... Read More has). This one also feels like the fabric is more prone to tear but this is what you trade for the lightweight-ness.
Love this jacket, probably worn it everyday since I unwrapped it at Christmas!
I purchased a large feather grey Micro Hoodie and a Piki Green medium Nano puff vest to wear under it for colder days. Absolutely love the hoodie, I prefer the weight and fabric of the Micro to the Nano. Only item I'd mention is that while the sleeve length is really nice and long, the length of the jacket sits well below my glutes rather than... Read More at my hips like the models in the photos.
This jacket is awesome! So light you don’t even feel you have it on! Amazingly warm for its weight. Looks as good in the outdoors as in a bar, or to/from work. So versatile and comfortable.
Great warm jacket! This can be worn on its own or layered inside other jackets to gain extra warmth. The only downside is that the sleeves and shoulder area run small. If you have narrow shoulders and very small arm muscles, you'll be fine, but everyone else might want to order a size up.
Love this jacket! It is light weight, warm and stylish. I also really like that the outer layer is soft and not noisy like some other insulated products on the market. Great layer for a cold office or as a warm layer cross country skiing.
Great; but too lightweight and but not warm enough for my mountain living needs
As much as I liked this jacket, I ended up returning it because I'd misunderstood it's warmth factor. "Warmest for weight" turns out to be super lightweight and not as warm as I need. The Patagonia store sales woman who processed my return was very helpful and recommended a better choice for my mountain living needs.
I love this micro puff. It is very compact so great for traveling and very warm which I need in Alaska. I love the inside pockets! Very useful! Great jacket!
This is definitely a favorite. Light weight, packable, warm, but not too hot. Can use it alone or as a layer. On extra cold days I put it under a shell and have the hood up under my ski helmet and I am toasty warm all day. I grab it for those quick trips running errands or hiking, even use it as a sweater around the house.
Jacket is very light and very warm. I have been looking for a warm jacket that is down free because I’m allergic to down. This jacket is perfect for its warmth, style, fit and lightness.
This jacket was recommended to me by a friend due to Patagonia claiming it’s their lightest, warmest jacket. I am traveling frequently by air so I thought this would be much better than a thicker jacket to travel with and I was right! I received the jacket on a Thursday and I was taking it with me the next day to Toronto in December. I was very ple... Read Moreased with the jacket during the cold weather and snow. I went up in size from a large to an extra large to ensure I could wear a vest or sweater underneath in case I needed an extra layer. I didn’t have to worry about my torso and arms getting cold even after 6+ hours walking around in snow in Canada. The snow never soaked into my jacket and I was left dry all day. I went with feathered grey, which doesn’t look quite like the photo in my opinion, but I ended up liking it more in person because it was almost a shiny silver. I would recommend this jacket to all of my friends and family every time. I can’t wait to wear it again!
Please Please Please add XXL Women's to offerings in Women's Micro Puff® Hoody
My husband has a micropuff and it's wonderful. So light and so warm!
I would really like to have one of your Micro Puffy Hoodies but I want it to wear loosely over many other layers.
The XL fits fine but I want something oversize and am very hopeful that you will XXL to your line of hooded micro puffs in the near future.
Thank you.....
Thanks for going out of your way to make sure we received the items we wanted. Patagonia for me is the reference for retail quality, service and all round kick ass company. The world would be a better place with more Patagonia's
Super cold natured human here. I’ve been needing something to keep me slightly warm and I’ve found it. I was skeptical but took the leap when these were on sale and am beyond pleased♥️
I like it, but I need to wear a lot inside to stay warm. (Today was 47F with wind 13mph, I needed to wear t-shirt, fleece and soft shell under this Micro Puff Hoody...)
As for the size, I was glad I ordered XS and not Small. I am 5'2 and currently weigh about 112. But this XS is equivalent of Small for other brands (such as Marmot). It is quit... Read Moree big for XS. If I wanted to have a tight fit, I needed to go down to XXS, but I'm happy with this since I need to layer a lot.
Oh! My gosh!! When it arrived I opened my pkg put it on immediately PERFECT! Love, love this wonderful jacket fits so great! The hot pink is beautiful, M fit, I’m 5’ & 130 lbs. So happy I ordered this hoodie jacket. You did it again Patagonia thank you! Can’t wait to wear it when our weather is cooler. I’m down South in Louisiana.
The weight is perfect for all activities in Southern California. Wore it hiking this morning and to the soccer stadium tonight. Fit is slim but can still wear a sweater under it comfortably. Never too warm or cold. Love this jacket.
Patagonia jackets are my security blanket - especially during our New England winters. I know I will always stay warm when I wrap myself up in my micro puff. Love my new jacket!
Super lightweight jacket that is as sleek and breathe-able as it is warm and cosy. Perfect for a range of outdoor activities or commuting to and from work in chilly winter weather.
Great jacket! Makes a great midlayer because it’s so packable. It’s nice. I am 5’7” 115lbs and the small is perfect! I also own the micro puff vest! Amazing❣️
This coat is great. It’s light weight with good pocket space, a hood, and does a great job of trapping heat and keeping you warm. Great for trips to the gym in the cold without having to get completely bundled up! I do wish it came with a bag that it could fold into for trips, but that is very minor and does not take from the quality of the coat.
This is my second Patagonia jacket in two years. I liked the weight, warmth and fit of the first so much, I wanted a second with a hood for a trip to Europe. I realize it's not the EXACT same jacket, but both are size small and they fit very differently. The new jacket's arm lengths are about four inches too long. The body fit is also loo... Read Moreser, especially through the chest. I'm tempted to return it, but worried an XS will be too tight with any layers. Mostly puzzled about the weirdly long arm lengths.
After our sales rep showed us how quickly heat builds up putting your hands on either side of the material.. I decided to purchase one. Since then it has been my go to jacket for everyday and hiking. It's warm and not at all bulky. I bought a small, which in some brands is restrictive, and I can wear a sweater underneath and be comfortable!
Very thin and light weight, but surprisingly warm. Hood fits nicely around head and keeps out wind. Body is not super tapered, but it's nice that it allows room to wear layers of clothing. Great inside pockets.
I love this hoody. It is light, windproof, warm and I love the length. Sleeves are a little longer than what I am used to which is nice when it is really cold. Very happy with the purchase.
I was looking for a jacket that I could wear around town as well as something for the outdoors and this puffy does just that.
It has kept me warm while I'm waiting around for the bus or while belaying or while hiking around in the snow. It does a good job of blocking the wind and water out.

The size fits true to size, but the back seems to gap a bit and the shoulders are really tight when reaching forward. I am very use to my Nano Puff fit and feel so this one just takes some getting use to in comparison!
Love the lightweight warmth and quality.
I just wish the pocket placement was lower. They just feel like you have to bend your arms awkwardly to put hands in the pockets.
I also own a NanoPuff and that jacket has pockets I like.
Been wanting one of these for years now. Finally decided to go for it and honestly, been wearing it every single day since. I'm a Small to Medium depending on brands, went with a Medium on this jacket so I can put a few layers under and so happy for that. I also love the inside pockets, such a great use for small gear storage.
Great fit and super cute! It’s super lightweight and packs down small enough that I can throw it in my bag on chilly days to deploy as an outer layer if the temperatures drop. I also wear on super cold days and stay toasty warm. The hood is I credibly well designed and stays put no matter what I’m doing — even in strong wind (with no drawstrings!).... Read More Love how versatile this jacket is. Certainly feel like I’m getting my moneys worth.
I am 5’7” and normally wear a small but took a medium in this so I could layer up underneath on extra cold days. The medium is roomy but not sloppy looking. I can still wear under rain gear on wet days without feeling at all bulky.
I live in this jacket. I wear it all year round. This is my 3rd nano/micro puff. I have a sweater, a pullover and now the full zip. I wear it over thin and thick layers and under thin and thick layers. It is a "do everything" piece of clothing.
I bought a medium. I’m 5’ 2” and 135 Lbs — the coat was too long in the torso and bunched up. It was also a bit large fitting. It’s not as warm as I expected. The color is nice — 2019 blue. I plan to buy another one just the heavier version and a size small.
I do love my new micro puff hoody. It really does keep me warm, it is light as a feather and packs down to very little volume. I also think it’s quite stylish.
I recommended wearing it on fair weather days as I got a little wet here in San Francisco. It would be great wearing it under a hard shell on wet days.
I love this jacket and I recommend it to everyone I know! This insulation is truly amazing. I have a pretty narrow frame, so mine fits me perfectly but for it seems like people with more curvy/womanly frames like to size up so it fits around the hips.
I've never had a piece of clothing that is this warm and this lightweight/packable. It's extremely practical- perfect for climbing belays, under my ski shell, and dog walks. My only concern is that I didn't purchase one sooner.
Theres never been a more light weight jacket! Loving this jacket so far. Taking it with me backpacking Grand Canyon in December - will report back on warmth.
I love the weight and look of the jacket. I hate that I lost something out of one of the inside pockets, when I took the jacket off and left it in a public forum. There should be a zippered inside pocket for valuables.
This jacket is nice and warm, but I prefer the fit of the Nano Puff jacket much more. The Nano is more flattering and sleek at the bottom of the jacket. The Micro hits tighter at the bottom, creating a marshmallow effect. If you're deciding between the two, go with the Nano. You can wear either as your every day jacket in Montana. I also run i...

I bought this primarily for an under layer under a ski patrol uniform, but it is a great coat on its own. It has nice coverage and length, nice long sleeves, and a great hood. Both of my Patagonia nano and micro puff hoodies really fit nicely in the underarm area, so even if you are using it as an under layer, there isn't a bunch of bulk that ...

This hoody is BEYOND amazing. It's incredibly lightweight, but SO warm. I'll take this in a full onsie if it ever becomes available. Go ahead and buy two, because you aren't going to want to live without this.
Super warm. the hood covers my face a little too much, which is great for keeping you warm and cold air out but i can't even fit a scarf comfortably around my neck and keep the hood on.
I have a nano puff pullover and have been wanting a jacket and this was exactly what I was looking for. It does not have that snuggly feeling of down, but I wore it out in the rain with no worries.

I love this jacket so far, I live in San Diego and I am itching to actually need it because when I put it on now, I instantly warm up and need to take it off.
I have been using this below another, thicker, down jacket for my morning bike rides to work for the last two weeks (24-30 degrees). It fits perfectly underneath and adds the boost of warmth that I needed. Since it is thin and light, it doesn't create bulk and it stays put so I don't get a cold lower back.
This is a beautiful jacket. It is very lightweight but also warm. I the hood fits perfectly without a helmet. The jacket runs a little large because it is a regular fit and not a slim fit.
This jacket is comfortable and warm (without bulk), but the shape would not work for everyone. I am 5' 9" and weigh 160 lbs, so I bought a large so I could wear layers under it.

I found the fit of this jacket to be more comfortable than the down hoody. It fits smaller than the down hoody of the same tag size. It has kept me warm in 15°f weather for the two days I’ve had it.
This jacket tares easily. I tripped and caught my self on the grass, now the jacket has a free hotel soap sized gash on the arm.
Fantastic quality and truly very, very warm. For my body type I am usually a solid medium in most brands, but I tend to need a larger size for Patagonia.

Read Moreh this jacket at this size. All zipped up its honestly tight across my bust (34F in ThirdLove sizing), but not so tight that it bothers me. I do think anything more than a thin long sleeve would be uncomfortable underneath because it would be too tight. I would also be comfortable in a large for sure but the sleeves would most likely be too long, which happens alot -size up to fit the curves and then the shoulders and sleeves are way too big. So while the medium is a bit tight on the girls, the sleeve length is absolutely perfect, hits right at my wrists. I wear this jacket to work, for skiing, for hiking, etc...I can wear it outside all weekend and it still looks great to turn around and wear it Monday morning to the office. I am very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend.
I work outside for much of the day and even in the coldest weather, I was comfortable. I had lots of friends compliment the color and a few that followed up by buying one of their own!
Super warm for the thinness! Which is awesome :-)
The bottom of the jacket is a bit narrow for larger hips so go a size bigger if you want it to fit loosely in this area. The hood is a tight fit as well, this will be great when it is cold and windy, when trying it on in my house it was a bit intense.
Love this jacket! I got a small. It’s perfect. I’m 5’10” with long arms and a slender frame. It’s super light weight but nice and warm.

Warmer than you’d thin
Thin, packable, and rocket ship warm. Super impressed with this item and psyched to use it to its fullest. Does fit a touch on the baggy side, but I’m not complaining. Good for layering and still heats up well!
Have you recently changed the fit? I am a small person and it felt extremely tight in my chest area. I love this jacket for backcountry skiing but unfortunately had to return it because I couldn't move my arms around comfortably.
Hi Savannah! We're sorry to hear this was too tight. The unfamiliar pattern lines of the Micro Puff can sometimes fit or drape unlike other similarly fit products, which is why it fits tighter on some.

Lighter weight warms x2
The color, style and fit overall is good, although I would love a little more space in the hips. I fold it under to shorten in compensation.
I think I had hoped that it would be warmer. I used it with an R1 layer under it in 32 weather and was *just* warm enough. I will continue to use it as a useful layer in Sacramento "winters."
Thanks for your feedback, Toby! We're sorry this jacket wasn't what you were hoping in terms of fit and warmth. As part of its minimalist design and unique material, we developed a unique pattern for this jacket, which is why it might drape unlike other similar fit jackets. If you'd like a warmer version of the Micro Puff, we'd recommend the [Macro Puff](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-macro-puff-hoody/80115.html), and if you'd like a warmer jacket but for less cost, we'd recommend the [Down Sweater](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-down-sweater-hoody/84711.html).

Perfect Puff
This jacket is incredibly warm and unbelievably light. It packs down extra small, making it perfect for travel. I love this layer!
Great coat! Definitely on the lighter side but has been keeping me warm (with layers) between 20-30 degrees. Plan on using this coat for backcountry skiing and snowshoeing.

I am not certain how a jacket that weighs so little can keep you so warm but Patagonia has done it! Blue color is beautiful, the warmth is perfect for Vermont winters and outdoor activity, and the size just right for fitting a sweater or hoodie underneath.
This hoody is great I have already worn it hiking a handful of times. It is definitely a good piece to layer with and packs down small to fit in your bag.
The W's Micro Puff Hoody is exactly what my gear selection was missing! It is so light but really warm.

Switch from an Atom LT to the micropuff for my synthetic layer. I ordered it a few sizes larger than I normally wear because I wanted to fit layers underneath, but also wear it like a parka.

Light-weight and warm
Love this jacket and would recommend! The only thing I would change is that the bottom hem of the jacket is tight, right where a lot of women curve out. Maybe that tight hem is supposed to hit at the thinnest part of the waist, but for me it goes down to my butt. Definitely still love it though and I've been using it everyday since I got it!

So Lightweight and Warm
This jacket is so lightweight! It weird that it seems appropriate to wear in mildly cool weather AND pretty cold weather. Easy to layer
This jacket is really nice. I am 5'9", stocky at 190# and I am between a M and L. M is OK if wearing just a t-shirt under, L is better if you plan to add several layers under this piece. Super warm for how light and small it packs down.
This is the perfect light as air jacket . It feels great on the skin and keeps you warm. It has no bulk as an under layer and is more fitted and stylish than some of Patagonia’s other jackets. I also love the deep inner pockets and the hoodie that actually stays on your head in wind. I got a Medium for an athletic 145 lb 5’7” frame. I might have pr... Read Moreeferred Small for an even more fitted look but I didn’t want to take it off to send it back.
Err a little up for the bust but not for the hips...
I got it and I really like it so far. I was worried about the fit because the medium dimensions for waist and hips were fine, but it seemed like it might be too small though the chest. I went for it and found that it was fine in the chest, but if I was any hippier, it would be tight at the bottom.
Be aware, this coat is long. It covers my butt, a... Read Morend I’m pretty long waisted. The sleeves are long too (which I like) but on a shorter woman, it could be an issue.
It’s pretty darn warm, I wore it this morning in 35°F weather with just a teeshirt underneath and was very comfortable. The stitching holes are pretty large as others have commented. It didn’t seem to let the wind through too badly, but I haven’t had it long enough to really know.
I am a little concerned with the longevity of the material. I’ve already seem some little pills and I’ve not done anything too abrasive (grocery shopping and a hike). We’ll see how it holds up. Definitely not a good jacket for bouldering or climbing unless you have something that wears better on top.
The color is beautiful and it’s not as shiny as it looks in the photo on the model.
I’m not sure that my review can be updated, but so far, it’s pretty solid.
I thought the material would shiny like the old nano puff. It is a nice rip stop with a matte finish. Because it’s down like, I was warmer than I am in my Nano. The stitching looks solid.
I wanted to love this piece from its debut. First , I sized up from L it XL, and just dealt with it and the odd shoulders. After that, it’s a good stuff-able layer The zip front style without hood is too odd as it rises up at neck as others say It’s not the Nano Puff fit at all. I like the longer sleeves. Maybe Patagonia will remodel this to a norm... Read Moreal Regular fit .

Liked it so much I got a second one!
My favorite part about this jacket is how it totally covers my neck without feeling like it is choking me. Very warm but lightweight. I bought a second one in the pink which is a beautiful color1
Love the weight and the grey color. Fit overall is good and fairly true to size but I find the sleeve area around the elbow to be a bit tight. The sleeves are nice and long which I like. You have full range of motion without the jacket riding up. The hood and collar area are not the most flattering as the hood sticks out instead of laying flat but ... Read Morethat is just a fashion comment and has nothing to do with how awesome the jacket is. Has the look of down without the drawbacks, packs pretty small and compresses in a pack. I would say this is a great travel option for planes, trekking, and pretty much any activity once you get there. It would be be a great added layer for a cold sleeping bag so it is really versatile.
I purchased this because I find down jackets failing to warm me when I'm sweaty because the down gets wet. This jacket is warm and light. It is also very very small, in weird ways. The back -- shoulder to shoulder -- is very narrow and the arms, around the biceps, are as well. Maybe all Patagonia clothes have shrunk over the past few years. I ... Read Morehave a womens large in both an R1 and a Nano Air from years past. I based on the fit of those two, I could go down to a Medium, even with a few layers on underneath. But this jacket is so tight around the top, I might be more comfortable in a XL. Luckily I wouldn't be putting this on top of multiple layers. It's the same length and everything from the bust down fits like the older R1 and Nano Air.

just ok
fits a big snug, esp in shoulders and hips
pink color has dark lines underneath creating a sort of striped appearance
thin and lightweight which is great but kind of makes the jacket feel cheap
overall just not worth the price tag
Hi Jenna, we're terribly sorry that you didn't find the Micro puff up to par. If for any reason you are unhappy with our gear we would be glad to return or exchange it for something that better suits your needs. We'll reach out to you with more information on how to do that.

Great Layer!
I love this jacket! Definitely water-resistant enough for snowy conditions and the pockets are huge. I am usually a small or a medium in Patagonia women's stuff, and I got the large in this one. The medium probably fit the best aesthetically, but I have broad-ish shoulders and felt like I wouldn't be able to layer under the medium. So, ye... Read Mores the sleeves and hem are long for my 5'3" frame, but I appreciate the extra coverage.
I am big Patagonia clothng afficionado, can't wait to wear this jacket when the bad winter comes along. Keep in mind before odering this jacket, it runs little small. I usually wear small but for this I went for medium.
I love this new hoody! It is super lightweight and it packs down to nothing in my bag. I wore it on a recent hiking trip with fluctuating temperatures and it was the perfect layering piece with either a T shirt or a fleece underneath or under my rain shell. I could not be happier with this purchase!
I’ve got the Cobalt Blue. I think it worths pointing out that the blue color in photo on this site is the color in sunny days, under bright light. In other circumstances, the blue looks much more subtle, darker and less saturated, which is perfect for everyday wear. This hoody is extremely packable, which makes it very convenient to carry with any ... Read Moretime. It has become my life saver since I bought it. Love Patagonia!
Sleeves are way too long. I had to size up from my Patagonia Sweater jacket and now I have too much bulk at my low back since I’m short wasted. I plan on returning it.
Living in the PNW this is the perfect jacket! I can stuff it in my work bag for the week without taking up a lot of room and bring it up to the mountains on the weekend! It's so light that I often forget I have it with me. I am glad that I sized up (I usually wear a medium and I purchased a large) it does fit a little slimmer than I expected. ... Read MoreSo so happy with this purchase!
I was looking for a jacket that was light and warm enough to take on big high altitude treks. Having something that was compact and lightweight but would still keep me warm was important to me. I ordered the jacket and when it arrived, it was so much thinner than I expected! I thought "there's no way this thing is going to keep me warm en... Read Moreough", but it definitely works! I wore it on a hike last weekend where temps fluctuated between 40-60 from dawn until early afternoon. I had no issues with upper body warmth whatsoever. Especially with the hood on, I was very comfortable during some of the coldest parts of the hike. The only thing is that it doesn't breathe...I guess that's the whole point of an insulated jacket. During slightly warmer parts of the climb, the jacket turned into a sauna and the interior of the jacket became (and remained) damp from my sweat. Other than that one thing, it's the perfect jacket for cold weather sport activities!
Runs slightly bigger. I'm 5'0, 120 pounds and it's a bit roomie for me. It fits perfectly if I add a fleece underneath it.
The Micro Puff Hoody is amazing. It's an ultra light jacket that's super warm and snuggly. The hood on this jacket is what totally makes it for me--when I pull it up, it's like I'm tucked into a little sleeping bag. I wore it when I hiked the Tour du Mont Blanc last summer and it kept me nice and toasty. When it rained and sleet... Read Moreed, I wore it as a mid-layer under my rain jacket and it was awesome. I don't wear it when I'm rock scrambling because the shell is pretty thin and I think it might be a little delicate for that kind of activity. But it's super packable and light, and WARM!
I’ve seen jackets like this before but never was able to purchase this jacket with the hood! Size and fit were exceptional and can’t wait for colder weather :-)
