By their nature, knitted garments are prone to pilling, and this style is no exception. Removing pills can help lengthen the life of your Patagonia sweater, plus it’s easy to do with a sweater stone.
Built for swinging flies all day in cold water, the warm Tough Puff Hoody has a stretchy and durable face fabric combined with highly breathable FullRange® stretch insulation for performance, comfort and freedom of motion.
Here’s the dilemma: It’s not quite rainy enough for a hard shell, but you don’t want to thrash your puffy busting brush on the way to the water. Combining warmth, durability and freedom of movement, our new, fish-specific Tough Puff Hoody solves the problem with a stretchy and abrasion-resistant face fabric that moves with you and, thanks to a DWR (durable water repellent) coating, shakes off moisture or passing showers. Inside, the Tough Puff keeps you warm with the same ultralight, 60-g FullRange® polyester stretch insulation we use in our Nano-Air® designs. Two large, vertical fly-box pockets on the front, two zip-closure handwarmer pockets, and a moisture-wicking, 100% recycled polyester Capilene® body lining round out the technical package for ultimate comfort on the water.
