Maybe next time mention your height and weight and size of the jacket you're wearing to give us a better idea on sizing. Thank you for sharing.
At first, I thought your background was just a green screen image, until you walked into the snow and proved it was real. 😄 Great review btw!
Good review, especially trying on the hoody, seeing how it fits and stretches. No zip garage is a design error from Patagonia, it's a cold weather garment!
Hi! Did you paid extra money While swapping?
I have the first gen w the 2 way zip (worth the weight, sad to see the new versions still doesn't come with them) & it doesn't have any self-stow pocket. It came w a separate sack which I use for other stuff since I just toss it in my pack & it fills out empty space.
Okay I have the newest version of the Das Parka. I love this jacket and it even holds up to 10 below, BUT! I'm returning it. As a photographer 50 miles east of Anchorage in the Matsu - Valley in AK when I'm standing around in 20 degrees to below 20 degrees the hand warmer pockets of all things are way too small they barely fit my hands. I'm 5 8" 180 so I'm not a big guy. Not to mention there's no liner in the hand warmer pockets so it's brutal even if it's 30 degrees and the wind is howling. For 4 bills I want my hands warm while taking pics and not have to wear gloves. It's beyond frustrating patagonia made an amazing jacket and the hand warmer pockets suck. I'm willing to pay more money to patagonia if they made the hand pockets the way they should be, a little extra $ no prob to keep my hands warm while standing around. I can't even believe this is an issue lol crazy. So close but yet so far. Peace
Nice review. I have an earlier version of this jacket in black with many of the same features that I use for winter camping in N Minnesota. The mesh pocket inside is used to keep a water bottle (at the time the preferred bottle was 32 oz Nalgene) inside so it doesnt freeze. Mines got a lot of patches from cinders from campfires. Also has one larger hand pocket that can be reversed to stuff the jacket into w a lot of work.
This video helped me pull the trigger and get one for myself. I love it! I got mine in conifer green.
the fit’s one of it’s best features IMHO. I’m 5’6” 130 lbs in winter & my XS even fits over a XS Macro Puff if need be. I find it breathable & enough for cold & fast hiking, & bouldering, but blocks an enough of a breeze. If I need precip protection it’s great under a shell. I like that it’s not as warm & fleecy as an R1, & lighter than a usual soft shell Love the stretch, long simple sleeves & how it slims down towards the waist. All individual preferences 🤷🏽♂️
That jacket is good for fetish.
Bought my first Patagonia down sweater and it changed my life. Why did you guys gatekeep this lol!!
Maaaaan, I had this jacket back in 1994/95 in all black before they started with the "Summit series" stuff..the new 2024 version seems to mix this jacket and the Himalaya together..the new 2024 version has black by the elbows like the older original version and now they added the black on the wrist part like the old Himalaya jacket..
My favorite Patagonia piece. Sold my first one several years ago and really regretted it. I have been searching and finally found one for a reasonable price, same blue and orange as before. Wish Patagonia would make this again (non hybrid).
Hello, thank you for making this video ! I wanted to ask, do you think it's ok to use this jacket for hiking during summer ? Or would it be too warm. And also, is it easy to pack into a backpack ? Thank you and have a nice day
I have just got mine, I love it!
I'm really looking forward to testing it out this winter
Very informative and straight to the point. Answered all my questions about prepping for our trip that has puff and expedition jackets provided. Thanks, Chris!
No problem! Happy that it was helpful!
Dope video, dig the green. How do you like that red Terravia backpack? I'd love a video about that one since I've been considering a purchase, looks ncie.
I'll add this to the queue next!
how is the DWR? i read it's not good and it deteriorates quickly
Great question! Patagonia’s DWR on the Triolet, like most eco-friendly finishes, is PFAS-free, which makes it more environmentally friendly but does mean it might require a bit more upkeep than older DWR formulas. Out of the box, it should do a solid job repelling water, but over time, dirt, oils, and general wear can affect its performance, leading to that 'wetting out' effect where water starts soaking in instead of beading off. To keep it performing at its best, a quick clean and reapplication of a DWR treatment (I usually go with Granger's or Nikwax) every season or after heavy use really helps. Just a little maintenance keeps the water-shedding strong!
Is it a large or extra large,i like it los
Mine is a Medium. It does fit slim
Salut merci pour ton retour d'expérience, peut tu me dire ce que tu penses de sa résistance face à une pluie légère? Merci
I think with a super light rain it might be fine, but anything more than that and you'll be getting wet.
@almostadventurous merci
Great, thanks.
You're welcome!
Is the main zip 2 way? Does it have a powder skirt?
One-way zipper and no powder skirt
@@almostadventurousThank you.
I’m in between the Granite Crest and the Triolet, I got similar prices in both of them, and I shouldn’t need but in exceptional cases something too rugged, on the other hand I’d love to have the extra waterproofing and breathability of Gore-tex Membrane. So I wanted to ask is: You said it doesn’t pack to small, but how small does it pack? I was informed that it packs pretty as small as the Granite Crest, but I can’t find anybody showing it packed. Did you experience packing it down? How far does it go?
I can easily roll it into its own hood for packing. Honestly, between the two I would go Triolet, mostly because of the Gore-Tex. It really is a premium shell.
Patagonia has nice warranty
last years XS fit too tight so i cut the sleeves off at the seams & turned it into a vest. It’s the perfect little versatile nothing that fits anywhere and blocks core & head wind in key situations. This years size small is just lose enough & extending the cap LW through the pits was def a plus.
Agreed. I like that you turned it into a vest, I'm all for more hooded vests out there for running
How well does it pack down?
It packs down reasonably well, not as good as a down jacket would, but smaller than a Nalgene for sure. I had mine packed in my Salomon Adv Skin 12 this weekend for a 14er summit once things got chilly.
@@almostadventurous that's exactly what I got it for, so that is fantastic news, I have a 14l and a 22l pack that I am planning on it being regular kit in and was worried it might take up too much space
How much
Depends on where you find it! I was able to find it secondhand for around $80 and I think that was good for what I got.
That’s really good i paid $315 Canada 🇨🇦 brand new haha
How well does it pack down? I'm looking for something to throw in a fast packing setup for summeting day hike mountains
It packs down reasonably well, not as good as a down jacket would, but smaller than a Nalgene for sure. I had mine packed in my Salomon Adv Skin 12 this weekend for a 14er summit once things got chilly.
Cheers mate 🤠👍
🤙
waiting for you to put in on!!
Skip ahead to the 9:00 mark
Would the nano puff jacket be better than this if you live in a wet climate? I live in the U.K. and it rains a lot. Sounds like where down wouldn’t be a good idea?
If we’re talking synthetic from Patagonia I think the closest comparison to the down sweater would be a Micro Puff, though the Nano Puff is also a good, albeit not as warm (imo) option. If you want something synthetic that’s even warmer, I really like the DAS or the Macro Puff, both of which I’ve reviewed here. Thanks for watching!
Do you recomend it for -20º celsius?
When it gets that cold I always layer. Last year I did a summit hike around those temperatures and this jacket was part of what I wore. Underneath I wore a baselayer, then an R1, and a shell over it since it was pretty windy and snowy. Layering is always key. Over just a t shirt? Not gonna cut it. As part of a layering setup? Sure.
What fjallraven your small bag? What model? Thanks
That’s the toiletry bag.
Hi
Hi!
What color is this one?
This one is teal and obsidian plum.
Is the down treated with DWR?
The exterior is DWR treated but the 900-fill power down is not, afaik.
@@almostadventurous I figured. Patagonia would make the top tier stuff if they treated their down.
Are you wearing the same size in each version?
Yep, both are a medium.
Is it true to size? I ordered a size L, but I might need an XL according to european sizing which usually runs a bit smaller
It was for me, yes. I wear a medium.
"definitely serial killer vibes" hahaha and the face of a little boy with the hood on hahaha
what about the airshed pro, is it the similar to Houdini Air, because they dont make that one anymore.
I have the Airshed Pro, it’s my most used piece. Check out my video on it. It isn’t a complete replacement for the Houdini air but it offers some similar features.
Even though its expensive, i"m getting one for cool and cold days. Much better than Houdini for running ,Fastpacking.
Agreed! I have a Houdini and a Houdini Air and this has pretty much made them obsolete where I run outside of the few sleety days we have here.
Always debated trying one of these, always loved my Houdini and tend to go for black diamond alpine start OR deviator when looking for something more breathable
I haven't tried the BD or OR options, but this has all but replaced my houdini for running and backpacking.
crucial detail thank you
No problem! Glad this helped!
Got lucky. Last July, all sun, “warm” and never out of shorts. Overpacked lol. But tht was summer. Lows of 3-4c and highs of 14-17c. Hope to go next winter and may follow this packing list.
Oh man! That is lucky. One day I'll go in the height of summer and wear shorts haha
You may be (way) too young and missed the spruce/teal and plum colour craze in the early 90s outerwear. But I too saw the Patagonia new dark plum teal Retro Pile and bought one. Love the colour. Bought a Micro puff in it too. 🤘🏻. This is next on my list but the current colours blow.
I was pretty young in the early 90s, but I was around for it!
Yo ive had this jacket for about a month now bro, wondering hows the Washing process for you?
Honestly, I don't wash it a whole lot and when I do it is with a specific down wash like Grangers or Nikwax
I was surprised after buying the Triolet, that even though the zipper is YKK , it is not Vislon. Can someone confirm whether the latest 2024 is using Vislon or just another type of YKK?
Unfortunately, I don't have the 2024 version, but if you reach out to Patagonia through the chat on their website they are usually really helpful
I absolutely love this honest review!
I appreciate that!
First, great review. We need more current year Patagoni content so ty. Just a warning to anyone buying anything Patagonia from 2023 or newer so you don’t ruin a $300 jacket like i just did. Their new non-toxic DWR does bead water, it DOESNT block stains anymore. I ate in mine.. mayo drop right on the front. Went to Patagonia site and followed their directions to the T and still have a big discolored grease blob. I wear them til they fall apart so I’ll be embarrassed for a decade. DONT EAT IN ANYTHING WOTH THIS NEW DWR. how I wished I’d have known that. Hope this helps someone.
Have you tried spot cleaning with a dish soap like dawn? It's helped get oily stains out for me.
How should I decide on the sizing? Should it be tight or more relaxed fit?
Depends on what you are using it for. It is a fairly slim piece so if you like it to be slim and want it to fit under other clothing then I would say order your regular size. If you want it looser then get a size up.
its a good piece, but why did they make the breast pocket so small? i have to use 2 hands to get my phone in and out. its very tight.
I agree with this so much. I find it not very useful at all. I'm sure it was for weight or money savings (or both) but if a pocket is unusable then why bother? The R3 of old has nice large chest pockets, I wish they went that route.
