Our take on the Patagonia Boulder Fork Rain Jacket

The Boulder Fork is Patagonia's lightweight, packable rain shell, built with a 2.5-layer waterproof-breathable membrane and a partly recycled polyester face fabric. It has a full-length zipper, an adjustable hood, and zippered hand pockets, and it stuffs into its own pocket for travel. It suits hikers and commuters who want a simple, fairly priced shell rather than a feature-heavy alpine jacket. Against rivals like the Patagonia Torrentshell, it is lighter and less burly, with fewer pockets and no pit zips.

Pros
  • Light and packs into its own pocket
  • Waterproof-breathable 2.5-layer build
  • Adjustable hood and hem
  • Zippered hand pockets
  • Fair Trade Certified sewing
Cons
  • No pit zips, so it can feel clammy on hard climbs

  • Fewer pockets than the Torrentshell
  • Loose cut runs roomy; slim fit is not truly slim

Questions and answers

Is the Boulder Fork good for hiking?
Yes for day hikes and warm-weather trails. It is light, waterproof and packs small. For cold, rough or long alpine days, a burlier 3-layer shell with pit zips is a better fit.
How does it compare with the Patagonia Torrentshell?
The Boulder Fork is lighter and simpler. The Torrentshell has a thicker face fabric, pit zips and more pockets, so it handles rougher use better but weighs more.
Does it have pit zips?
No. Ventilation comes from the front zipper and pockets. If you run hot on climbs, that is the main trade-off.
What sizes does it come in?
It is sold in men's sizes from Small through XL. The fit is roomy to allow layering, so most buyers stay with their usual size.
Is it fully waterproof?
Yes. It uses a waterproof-breathable membrane with sealed seams and a water-resistant zipper. It is a rain shell, not an insulated jacket.
What is it made of?
A polyester face fabric with a synthetic waterproof-breathable membrane, and the sewing is Fair Trade Certified.
Where is the Patagonia Boulder Fork Rain Jacket cheapest?
At Backcountry, for $239.00, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Patagonia Boulder Fork Rain Jacket?
3 stores we checked sell it, including Backcountry, Patagonia, Sportfish.
