Bought this for my wife since well be spending the winter in a cooler place that usual so we cant wait to try it.
Jacket feel & looks great and it made extremely well.
I love it but Im 52 and the sleeve length is at least 5 too long. I will have to have altered.
I really wish Patagonia would make Petites because this is a problem for me.
Otherwise its a wonderful warm jacket.
This is the best, most versatile jacket ever... I bought one years ago and it is still going strong! I just wanted a new color. Great for mildly cool days, drizzle, surprise rain, snow, freezing temps. Never too hot and rarely not warm enough for any type of weather. I just wish it were offered in petite as the cut is more for a long waisted person... Read More.
This is a great jacket. I purchased it for the MN winter/spring days when I don't need a parka, but want more than a sweater. It is a great addition to my Patagonia collection. I couldn't be happier!
I cant believe I went so many years without one of these! This jacket is so lightweight, warm, and best of all packs into a square. Perfect for hiking in cooler weather. Plus I love the color. Definitely recommend!
I LOVE nanopuff-I have my original jacket from the very first year(orange, BTW), a black jacket that I take everywhere, and added a hoody for cooler days-so far so good. I consider Nanopuff essential to life.
I bought this jacket for a hike to Mt. WHITNEY (the tallest mountain in the 48 continental USA) I cant stand cold weather, everyone was complaining about how cold it was except ME. They were all wearing other brands. The hood is perfect! It cover your ears and part of your face. Best purchase ever.
I was super excited to wear this jacket for everyday use. However after barely a month of moderate use the seems started to come apart and the thread is dangling out all over the place. The stuffing is now shifting around because the seems have not held. I was hoping it would last much longer like the micro puff and down jackets, but this was a maj... Read Moreor let down.

Super warm
Great transition piece for Michigan climate year round
Flew to Seattle for a 3.5 day hiking road-trip with this jacket packing in my backpack (the only "luggage" I wanted to limit myself to). Was perfect! kept me warm the entire time! Wish it was waterproof! But no complaints other than that.
Nice, warm, super comfy and I like how it can be packed small and stored even on a warm day in a beach bag, just pull it out as the temperature drops and stay for a sunset.
My first Primaloft jacket and first Patagonia product. The warmth to weight ratio is surprising at first. Very light very warm.

These jackets are just the right amount of puff, keeping me not too hot and not too cold. My old ones have been in almost every state and I'm looking forward to many adventures in the new one!
Thank you, THANK YOU for making this magnificent jacket in size XXS!!!! I just wish I could find this size in stores. I'm happy to have discovered it on your website, though.

I love Patagonia and I get all my jackets pretty much from here...I usually get a small (I'm a little over 5' 6" and between 115-120 pounds) and this definitely runs large! I like to bundle up and wear a hoodies or layers, so I think I will keep it, but I think the XS would have fit better.
I love it. It is really warm and the color is amazing. I got mako blue. Quality is nice and it's really lightweight. However I got it at the end of winter and it is already hot where I live so I didn't get to test it out all the way.
I was so excited to purchase this puffer! Love the bright teal color and comfort/ warmth for So Cal winter.

too fragile
Fit, style, warmth for weight great. Not super breathable but didn't expect it to be.
Unfortunately the outer fabric tears so readily it seems I can't wear this jacket anywhere with out getting a new pull in the fabric and the stuffing then pokes out. I wear it under a shell when I ski but it still seems to tear even then (sometimes I thi... Read Morenk just from taking my shell off?). I understand the trade off for weight but a piece of gear shouldn't be quite this fragile. I owned a nano puff vest from Patagonia a number of years back that I wore for everything and it didn't have this problem, lasted a long time. I've worn mine about 5 months now and it's got so many tiny pulls I can't really wear it anymore. If the fabric were just a little tougher would give it 5 stars. (And for those hoping to find the right fit I am 5'5" 135 lbs and the small is perfect).

Bought for my daughter
and she loves it. Fits well. She is 5.5", 108 lbs. Easy to care for
I’m 5’9”/ 170lbs. Got a large size and was slightly big- exchanged for a Medium and fits very nice under sweater. California weather isn’t too cold, so this jacket is super nice to wear it during winter.
This is the perfect jacket for travel. It is warm but not bulky. The hood is readily available for getting caught in the rain or snow. It even has zipper pockets to carry boarding passes and ID at airport security. Love it!
I’ve loved my nano puff for maybe 8 years. Then I lost it. I’m not happy with the new design, too form fitting. I’m between a small and a medium for comfort but the sleeves are huge. Hope they receive this input and go back to a more boxy fit. It kinda kills the comfort and perfect weight of a nano puff coat to have it so snug.

Favorite puffy
Warm when it's freezing and still a comfortable layer when it's only cool outside. It's my most worn jacket for sure
I have an hourglass-y figure and this fit super baggy at the top (shoulders, chest, etc.) and too tight around the hips. :( Returned. The medium Radalie jacket is much better for my body type.
I've had a bright nano puff without a hood for over 6 years and it's still in fantastic shape but decided I wanted a I've with a hood. Love them both! They are great jackets and wonderful quality!!
<3! Avid outdoors enthusiast. Feels comfy, soft on sensitive skin, snuggly and toasty: like a sleeping bag. Slides on my skin/clothes making coldweather outdoor chores easy.

The jacket runs bigger than expected in the waist. Wish I could’ve tried sizes locally and picked the smaller version. Overall happy. Very happy I caught the Black Friday sale. I’ve been wanting one of these for decades.
I'm very impressed with the quality if this jacket. Not only does it fit well (flattering), but i love how it isn't "Michelin Tire man" bulky at all and yet it's very warm and cozy. I'm already planning on getting another Nano Puff in another color. It's worth the price.
Returned the medium size for large size. What amazingly professional customer service!! Wish other firms would learn from Patagonia on how to treat customers!!
My puffy hoody was little tight so they sent a larger size immediately, free return of course! They wee so accommodating and my experience was absolutely hassle free!
I live on a boat in San Diego. It gets cold here and night and my nano puff was perfect for the Outside marina party Last night and walking the dog in the early morning. It doesn’t take up much room in the closet or my luggage. The weight to warmth ratio is perfect!
This jacket fits perfectly (I am 5'7 and ordered an XS) and is really versatile. Living in Southern California, it gets cold in the mornings and this jacket is perfect for walking the dog before it warms up. Will also be taking this jacket hiking and traveling back to the east coast in the cooler weather!!
I’m 5’3 and 118 pounds. Runs small!!! I ordered a small based on the sizing chart. It’s too small to wear anything but a t shirt underneath. I’ll be exchanging in a store for a bigger size. Otherwise, it’s a great jacket!
This is my first "big" purchase regarding a jacket but it was definitely worth it. It's so small yet very effective at heat retention. Everything is great but if you would like to layer I would suggest going with a larger size. I am usually a L, but the fit is a little tight. I tried to layer the jacket with the Patagonia Women'...

Sizing is perfect-true to size (5 ft 3, 140 lbs). I’m in VA and with this jacket, I can stay warm with 39 F (a few minutes of walking makes it more warm!). But.

This recent purchase is a gift for my daughter, she simply wore out her old version over 5 years of constant wear. I also wear mine daily.

Honestly, I was skeptical that it is going to keep me warm at all. But lo and behold, I was quite toasty this morning when I put it on to run errands in low 50s weather!

I love this jacket! It is so warm and lightweight. It is good for intense cold as well as a light chill. I love that it folds into a little bag. It was a great purchase!
I love my jacket! Very light, looks great. The sleeves were a little long for me, therefore somewhat loose at the cuff. It would be a nice option for the future to add a petite version! Extremely happy with my jacket.
Last year I bought a hoodless nanopuff that was on the clearance rack at the store in Nantucket-after much hemming & hawing & yankee wallet-clenching-& am so glad. The weight and warmth is so hard to describe. I bought one for my sister & its her favorite as well. My 87 year old Mom was almost in tears when she opened hers (I got he...

Thank you for this fabulous product & I love the goodness of the Patagonia brand as a social whole. Keep on keepin' on!
This is my second coat of this style. I love the color of the classic navy. This coat washes well and deceptively warm for the weight and thickness. I appreciate Patagonia quickly exchanging when my first order came in with a defective cut (unusual for Patagonia). XS in this coat fits me at 5'3.5" and slender frame.
Hey Barb, we're sorry to hear this hoody wasn't for you. It was designed to be light and easy to pack, which is why that fabric is thin. Feel free to check out the [Radalie](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-radalie-jacket/27690.html) for a thicker, warmer synthetic option.

Lightweight yet warm
Jacket packs down nice and small for traveling. Nice and thin and can be warn under rain jackets. Although a lighter weight, this jacket still keeps me really warm!
I ordered the Nano Puffo Hoody to wear to work and special events in the fall. The average fall temps in my region are between 40 degrees and 60 degrees F. I would say that this jacket holds up well. It feels very thin, but I feel warm when I am outside with it on. I wear it mostly to work or to commute on the train. I like the color of the jacket.... Read More It is a very deep navy. I would say that the jacket feels kind of small. I am 5'7, 127 and ordered Women's Small. The jacket feels tight at times. Overall, a good purchase. The price point might be slightly high but I am hoping that I can wear this jacket for a few falls. I have not tested the jacket out on outdoorsy trips.This is not a winter jacket. I imagine if it were 20degrees or 30degrees, one would know a thicker coat.
I absolutely love Patagonia clothing. The quality is excellent, the customer service is fantastic and whenever an organization strives to be as eco friendly as possible is a win for me. I strongly recommend.
I have wanted this jacket for three years and was finally able to purchase it! It feels so amazingly soft and keeps me very warm. No regrets spending the money in it at all.
I’ve been wearing this jacket for a couple months now. It is simply perfect. 17 F degrees this morning and I had on a thin base layer, a casual sweater and the nano.

I really like this coat so far. It is warm on its own, but light and thin enough to be a layer under a bigger coat. The sleeves are long enough for me.

You can never have too many puffy coats from Patagonia! This will be the perfect in between season jacket! I love that the hood is elastic so it stays on your head, but if you're a small person - it comes down so far that you cant see, oops!

Because I am very inclined to be cold, I try and have it handy in my car or office to provide some additional warmth. It is comfortable enough to sit around my house in it as well. I would suggest ordering one size up depending on how you like it to fit and how you plan to use it. I wanted to layer, so I ordered a M, but am a size S.

The name is super comfortable and will be a great jacket to layer with when it’s colder or wear alone on nice fall days. I ordered the blue, it’s vibrant and I love it. The fit is flattering with the slim fit design and the hood isn’t too big or too small. The length in the sleeves is great too.

I know Patagonia is pricey however consider this hoody, it is stylish, sporty, and made well. I live in Vermont and it is suitable for outdoors, the gym or even at work! It is the perfect weight and cut. you won't be disappointed
Very nice jacket but preferred the fabric and lightness of the micro puff. The fit of this jacket, however, is nicer. FYI I weigh 180 lbs and it fit well.
Love the jacket! Fits exactly how I would like. I ordered a Medium even though small fits me perfectly because I like a little extra room in my jackets. Light and easy to carry around, but warm and a solid base layer for even colder weather. Looking forward to wearing this frequently this Winter!
This hoody is a must have! It will keep you warm head to hip. Not to mention how small you can really compress it onto any bag. A must for the months ahead!

Definitely wore my jacket for two days (hiking in black forest) before realizing the tag was still on the inside under the hood.. I was that excited for this jacket after reading all the reviews and my fellow snowboard instructors letting me try on theirs for size reference this past snow season.
I'm never going to buy another jacket from another company again. This proves Patagonia is the elite for outdoor gear.
This is my first Patagonia purchase. I’m going to New Zealand & Australia and needed a lightweight, keeps me warm & dry and easy to pack. This hoody is perfect.

I have a Micro Puff jacket and needed something with a hood for cold weather, this is the hoody. Backpacking in the rain around Rainier, summiting Mt. Shasta, or craging around Yosemite this is my go to insulation layer. The sizing is jumpy, the medium didn't allow enough room for layers, and the large (which I got) is slightly too big.

Bought this jacket for a mountain bike event in Oregon on those chilly nights and it was perfect! I just love that it packs down in it's own carrier and the color rocks!
I bought the navy blue Nano Puff Hoody for my trip to the Dolomites. It was perfect for the mountains temperatures in May. Temperatures were between 35 - 55 degrees and this kept me warm. Well tailored jacket as well. I own 3 Nano Puff Jackets and the Nano Puff Sweater is my favorite!
Another amazing product from Patagonia. The Nano Puff Hoody is hands down my favorite jacket and layering piece. It’s the first item I pack for a trip, the go to on a chilly morning, rolling through town, on my bike, to the mountain, or out for dinner. The Nano Puff does it all in style and comfort.
I have 5 of these Nano Puff Hoody jackets. I’m so afraid Patagonia will stop making them. They are flattering, comfortable, warm and squish up into it’s own inside pocket.

Great product! Worth every penny!
I’m only giving this 4 stars as when the zipper is zipped to the very top, it is slightly tight around the neck/chin area. Otherwise- this is true to Patagonia form- amazing!!!
I purchased a L- I’m 5’8”, 160 lb.
I like my new jacket. Very warm for how thin it is & comfortable. The sleeves are nice and long even for a size small - which works for me because I am tall. Great traveling jacket!!
I have probably owned one of every type of jacket that Patagonia has made in the last ten years, but this is by far my favorite jacket to wear for a variety of outdoor activities!

I own three of these jackets. I am between sizes, so went with the slimmer of the two. I wear one nearly every day.

Given my daily usage, I feel adequately satisfied.
I originally bought a medium, but returned for a small because the medium was pretty large and I don’t plan on wearing thick layers underneath. I love the packability and how light it is. The only part I don’t like is how often the seams snag. I’ve onky had this for a few months and it looks old from all the snags.

I love this jacket but I really wanted it to be packable. Theoretically, some person, could put the jacket into the chest pocket. I have a Houdidni which is super easy. But this...I can't do it.

This jacket is so lightweight but it's incredibly warm! It fits true to size and the arms are not tight at all so you can actually layer and have the ability to move your arms (coming from someone with thick arms and shoulders). The length of the arms is also long so it doesn't just stop at your wrists, it comes to mid palm (this is such ... Read Morea big problem for me with other jackets!) I am a true XL so I got an XL and its nice and spacious. The hood is stretchy and fits great over a high pony tail or top bun. The bottom length comes down to about mid-buttocks for me so it keeps my lower back really warm (I'm 5'8" so once again this is usually this is a problem but not here). Overall, this jacket is wonderful for the Fall and I will be taking it with me when I hike the Appalachian Trail next year.
I was hoping this jacket would provide more warmth than it does. It's well-constructed and thoughtfully designed, but it provides very little warmth. It would probably work well for layering, if you size up. For me (an admittedly a cold person), I don't think I'd be comfortable wearing this below 50F. Especially if you're going ...

I live in Michigan where it gets very cold. I am also a poor college student.

If I want an added layer of warmth and waterproofing I put on a rain jacket on top. I even went snowboarding with this jacket combo. Seriously my all time favorite item of clothing.
Pretty impressed with this great little jacket. Loved it for our "winter" here in LA and some winter camping and climbing trips. Definitely need a base layer + more for real winter. :) Fits well and durable. Another quality Patagonia product.
I bought this for a trip to Morocco and am extremely disappointed after the first day of wear. The fit and style are nice,it packs well,but it is infinitely less warm than a down jacket I have of the same size/thickness. In fact,I'm not sure the nano puff 'insulation' (I use the term loosely) is doing anything at all - it doesn'...

I just wanted to rave about Patagonia's repair policy. I ripped up the front of my Nano Puff jacket in a bike accident a few weeks ago and brought it into my local (Banff) Patagonia for repair. I picked it up today expecting that it would be wearable but that the sewed-up gash would be visible and a little unsightly. But the repair company (Ge...

This jacket is the perfect partner for my daily bike ride. It keeps me warm even when windy and rain and I love that the hoody goes under my helmet.

I love how lite weight yet warm and cozy the Nano Puff is. I especially like the silver color. It's casual yet sharp. I'm 5'4 with a small frame and weigh 110lbs. The XS fits perfectly,allowing me to wear a light weight long sleeve shirt underneath the jacket.
I bought this a month ago and have been wearing it until the recent heat waves in SF. It's prefect warmth for the chilly summer night and the fit was comfortable.
A loyal Patagonia customers for many years,I was utterly disappointed by this jacket. In October,I purchased a jacket. After a couple of weeks,the seams at the wrists were unraveling. I exchanged the jacket for a new one in November. Once again,the seams at the front zipper and the wrists were unraveling. Wanted to give Patagonia the benefit of the... Read More doubt,I exchanged the jacket for a new one in January. Surprise! A couple of weeks later the seams are' unraveling. I returned the jacket to a Patagonia owned store and asked for a refund. The salesperson denied me a refund arguing that:
1) the jacket is meant to be used as a second layer and hence should never been worn without the protection of a shell (really?)
2) the seams have absolutely no technical purpose,it's only a design feature (This is not the case according to the product description 'Brick quilting pattern with narrow horizontal quilt lines on side panels stabilizes insulation and uses durable thread for abrasion resistance")
I had to take the matter with the shop assistant manager who made the same arguments. She went on to inform me that this was a known quality issue and that it was not a big deal,as the jacket's performance is not being affected. When I asked if she/the staff informs every single buyer to expect the seams to unraveled within a few weeks,she assured me they do. Really?
After some more argumentation,I finally got my money back. I am not sure when my trust in Patagonia,its products and staff will be back.
What I like the best about this is how it keeps my neck warm. Some hoods on jackets just don't fit well but this one is spot on! I will probably order it in another color at some point because I expect to be wearing this a lot!!
My parents gave me the Puff as a law school graduation gift. So much better than a pen/portfolio set. Fit and finish are Patagonia perfect. Thanks Mom and Dad and thank you Patagonia.
I bought this to take on a trip,warm,lightweight,multi function. However,before I left on my trip I started wearing it to the gym,hiking,just going to the grocery store.
I had to wash it because I'd worn it so much and it came out of the machine looking good as new.
Great buy.
I love this jacket,it fits well,packs down pretty small,and it's made well so I don't have to worry about being too careful with it. The weather in winter here is kind of all over the place so it's nice to have a layer I can wear by itself,over a sweatshirt or under a shell.
Purchased this nano puff hooded version for big hike in the sierras coming up,as I did not find the nano pullover in the color I wanted.

This is my second nano purchase in a year,one for myself and one for my sister as a gift. The best jacket that perfectly works for what it was designed for! Patagonia,always the best!
I have one of the first nano-puff hoodies,which I absolutely love. It's lasted me for countless climbing,skiing,and river adventures. It has needed to be replaced for a few years now.

I would love to be able to buy a new nano puff hoody to replace my old one. Please Patagonia create this jacket again with an active climber in mind!! If you are slim-build I would 100% recommend buying this jacket. But if you are muscular or broad in the shoulders at all- good luck with being active in this jacket. I'm 5'3" 130 lbs- in between size S and M. Maybe Patagonia should make this jacket it 2 fits- a "slim" fit and a "regular" fit. That way we all can enjoy it!!
I highly recommend this jacket for temps 33-59F. I love the fitted hood as no cold air can sneak in. The water resistance is fairly good. I stay warm in this coat down to about freezing temps and then I move to my Patagonia down jacket.
I originally had a Nano Puff without the hood,but lost it last winter. Since I lost it I tried to wear other jackets,but truly just missed the versatility of the Nano Puff.

The harvest moon blue color is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I could not believe how light weight this jacket is while still being so so so warm. It is very comfortable!

I've been wanting a puffy jacket for years now and have held out while my remaining gear ran it's course. When it came time to buy,I knew it would be from Patagonia.

The medium worked perfectly for me and even has some room for more layers underneath if needed.

Light yet warm. Packable do anything jacket with smartly designed details. Fit and feel is fabulous and spot on for me size wise,I wear smalls in Patagonia normally and this nano is no different.
