Are these two the same jacket?

Effectively yes. Both are Patagonia's Tres 3-in-1: a waterproof H2No shell plus a zip-out 700-fill recycled down jacket. The listings differ in colorway, stated gender and fabric wording.

They should be equal. Both use the same 700-fill recycled down liner inside a waterproof shell, which handles cold, wet winter days. In mild weather, wear the shell alone.

Which is better for hiking?

The green listing is described for trekking and hiking with a stretch twill shell, which moves better on the trail. The blue listing is the same design in a herringbone shell.

Does the hood come off?

Yes on both. The hood is adjustable and detachable, and the tall zip-through collar opens flat when you don't need it.

Is the down liner wearable on its own?

Yes. The zip-out jacket is a standalone insulated jacket, hip length, so you get a lighter layer for dry cold days.

Build should be identical: same H2No shell, same recycled down, same Fair Trade factory. Longevity depends more on care, especially reproofing the DWR and washing the down properly.

Patagonia Tres 3-in-1 Parka vs Patagonia Tres Down 3-in-1 Parka

These are the same jacket: Patagonia's Tres 3-in-1 Parka, a waterproof H2No shell with a zip-out 700-fill recycled down liner. The listings differ mainly in colorway, stated gender and fabric wording, so pick the one whose color and fit notes match you. Owners and reviewers consistently praise the versatility of the three-way wear and the build quality; the common complaints are the outer hand pockets and the bulk when fully zipped.

Choose the Patagonia Tres 3-in-1 Parka if you want the blue colorway and the men's cut with the fuller size run down to XXS.
Choose the Patagonia Tres Down 3-In-1 Parka if you want the Old Growth Green herringbone look and the women's regular fit.
