If it’s looking fine outside and you manage to grab a run, ride or climb, don’t leave home without an ‘up-for-anything’ Patagonia Houdini Jacket. Like its namesake suggests, it packs down into tight spaces and can easily get you out of a fix! Its featherweight (102g) weather-resistant 100% nylon ripstop fabric blocks wind and withstands abrasion and it even packs into its own chest pocket so you can clip it in a handy place. The Houdini Jacket’s performance is no illusion; team it with Patagonia’s base or light mid layers and you’ve got a miracle ‘get out of jail free’ card for unexpected weather downturns or chill protection for those who will get outside regardless.
