Patagonia crowned this "the best warmth-for-weight of any jacket [they've] ever built." We're inclined to agree. PlumaFill synthetic insulation (a techy featherlight down alternative) makes this jacket super warm and ultra lightweight. It's also water-resistant, and the innovative quilting construction means fewer stitches and more loft for more consistent warmth. The left pocket also doubles as a stuff-sack, so you can store the Micro Puff on the go. Shop it in seven colors.

It's available in five colors.

The North Face nailed lightweight, toasty insulation with their Thermoball jackets. It's the warmth equivalent of down, but still performs in wet conditions, and it's highly compressible for easy packing.
