Is the Downdrift warm enough for winter?

Yes for typical cold, dry winter days in town, especially layered over a sweater. It is not a substitute for a technical parka in deep cold or wet mountain weather.

How does it compare with Patagonia's Fitz Roy Down Hoody?

The Downdrift is heavier, longer and more casual, with a removable hood and a roomier cut. The Fitz Roy is lighter and more technical, aimed at alpine use.

Does the Downdrift run true to size?

It runs roomy and boxy by design, so most buyers take their usual size for layering. Those who want a closer fit often size down.

Is the down recycled?

Yes, it uses 600-fill-power recycled down and a recycled nylon shell, in line with Patagonia's material sourcing.

Can I wear it in rain?

The DWR finish handles light rain and snow, but the shell is not waterproof. In steady rain, wear a waterproof shell over it.

Is the hood removable?

Yes, the hood attaches with a zip and can be taken off for milder days.

About the Patagonia Downdrift

The Downdrift is Patagonia's casual winter jacket, filled with 600-fill-power recycled down and wrapped in a recycled nylon shell with a durable water-repellent finish. It has a boxy, hip-length cut, a removable hood, a two-way front zip and a storm flap, so it works over a sweater on a cold commute or a walk in town. It sits between Patagonia's technical down jackets and its fleece-lined casual coats: warmer and more weather-ready than a puffer vest, less technical than a Fitz Roy. Owners rate it highly for warmth and build, and some find the fit roomy and the shell noisy.
