Product Information
Tropical rainforests share at least one thing with the Patagonia Ice Cap: wet weather. For trekking and hiking in drenching conditions, our
Torrentshell provides 2.5-layer waterproof/breathable protection that's durable, lightweight and without frills. The nylon jacket stuffs into one of
two zippered handwarmer pockets (and has a clip-in loop); the hood rolls down, stows away, and has a laminated visor; and the center zipper has
exterior and interior storm flaps. With pit zips for added ventilation, a microfleece-lined neck and chin, and a drawcord hem. Recyclable through the
Common Threads Recycling Program.

Material
2.5-layer H2No® shell fabrics are waterproof, windproof, breathable and highly packable. They combine a water-repellent shell fabric with
our H2No waterproof barrier and a raised pattern on the inside, instead of the full-coverage interior scrim used in 3-layer fabrics. The raised pattern
makes 2.5-layer fabric packages lighter and more compressible while still protecting the waterproof barrier.
Technology
H2No Barrier is Patagonia's standard for 100% waterproof and breathable protection in our shell garments. H2No is created by adding a waterproof and
breathable laminate or coating to a high performance protective fabric. This fabric package blocks wind and water on the outside while allowing water
vapor generated by your body to escape – keeping you warm, dry and comfortable.
