Voluntary Recall of Certain 50+ UPF StylesC$19 3-Day Shipping*
Voluntary Recall
We recently discovered that certain styles of the Capilene® Cool Daily and the Tropic Comfort product lines do not meet the 50+ UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating we claimed for them. They still offer solid UV protection—it’s just not as much as advertised. If you own one of these shirts, click below for more information.
Nous avons récemment découvert que certains modèles des gammes de produits Capilene® Cool Daily et Tropic Comfort n'atteignent pas l'indice UPF (facteur de protection contre les ultraviolets) 50+ que nous revendiquions sur ces produits. Ils offrent toujours une solide protection contre les UV, mais pas autant que ce qui est annoncé. Si vous possédez l'une de ces produits, cliquez ci-dessous pour plus d'informations.
Perfect over sweater or blouse or layered running tops. I live in a warmer dryer climate. 50s-60s- low 70s in fall, winter, spring. I run in my old one in high 30s - low 50s in the morning.
This vest is great I like the length and the slenderizing waistline. What it needs is a 2 way zipper. When zipped and then the wearer sits down it rides up around the waist and then the neck of the vest goes up to the wearers ears. This could be easily remedied with an up/down zipper. This would make this vest perfecto and I would own one in every ... Read Morecolor!!

This vest is warm yet lightweight. The cut is very comfortable and feminine. I dislike vests or jackets that add pressure to the back of my neck when hiking, but I didn't even give the collar on this vest a thought. I just bought another color because you just can't have too many good-looking vests. Thank you, Patagonia!
Love this vest and wear it just about every day of my life. I walk the park trails with my 2 pups each morning and this 3-season vest keeps me organized and warm. Room for keys, phone, license, dog treats, poo bags and even a sneaky pocket for an emergency $20. It's basically a wearable diaper bag for dogs. My jacket gets a workout and stands ... Read Moreup to it--plus dog hair doesn't stick to it!
This is the mid layer I didnt know I needed. Its the perfect layer for when you need just a hint of extra warmth, but not too much.
I wore this vest during a cold windy drizzly beach weekend on the Oregon coast. I wore it over a thin wool layer and under a wind / rain layer and I was the most comfortable person there that weekend.
The vest runs small. I am usually wear small tops but small in this vest is way too tight. Medium fits just right. The vest itself is very warm and looks great, just order one size bigger.
This is a great company that makes great products, and they care about the planet!
This vest is the perfect weight for many uses, I wind up wearing it all the time. Only wish it had a double zipper on it, up and down adjustments.

I love Patagonia vests and I have been looking for a vest in this color for a while. Finally I have one! I ordered the Dark Ruby and its a gorgeous color and great for Fall. I find that the Nano Puff style vest runs a little big and the XS fits me perfectly. For reference I am about 115 lbs.
You cannot beat the Nano Puff vest for light weight and packability. The fit is just a tiny bit snug (I am usually a size 10, 5'5, 142 lbs). But the Medium easily fits over a flannel shirt or wool or cap baselayer. I prefer this fit, as I can choose to layer it under other outerwear.
This is not the first nano-puff garment I have purchased. l love wearing them as they are so light you hardly know you have them on, yet warm without overheating.
I wanted this vest to fit so badly. I love the color and the weight but it was too long and too tight on my short waisted body, I am 52 and weigh about 128lb. I returned it but am looking for another cute but comfy vest. I have other Patagonia jackets that fit fine.
I have purchased several of these vests in the past. This one seems to lack the amount of filling (down) Im used to. I saw one on another person at a large gathering and it looked the same way mine does - flat - like the filling was missing. Im not sure whats going on with this one, but its definitely different from my previous purchases.
Hi Patricia, thanks for taking the time to write a review. The Nano Puff is actually made with synthetic insulation and is intended to be a lightweight style vest. If you are looking for something with more loft, we'd consider browsing our [down insulation](https://www.patagonia.com/shop/womens-down-jackets-vests) options.

Great for Layering
I previously had this vest in a small, my usual size in Patagonia, but it always felt too big, particularly in the chest area (I'm slender and a 34b). I recently picked up an XS and it's a little snug, but works perfectly as a layering piece over a tight long sleeve and/or under a jacket. It does a great job helping to keep my core warm, ... Read Morewould definitely recommend this vest!
I love the Nano line, and the jacket is my go-to. I just got the best and adore it, used it on a backpacking trip and for fishing. Super warm, packable, and cute! I love the vibrant color, too.
The Patagonia nano puff vest is excellent. Light enough that you dont feel overwhelmed by fabric but still so warm. The color is great - I bought it in the summer so that Im ready for action come fall and winter!
I love all things Patagonia but the fit is usually off for me. In order to get the proper fit on top, the length is too long. Patagonia doesnt seem to take into consideration that women have curves.
I love the versatility of this vest. Lightweight, easy to pack, and excellent temperature control. I use it to do just about everything.
Thank you Patagonia for being such a customer service oriented company and most importantly socially conscience
Hey Patagonia please list the chest measurements on all shirts and weather or not the fabric has stretch. Answers to these questions for this one: No give in the fabric, so don't plan on too much stretch. Warm but not poofy which is nice. My biggest body part is my chest, I am a 40DD so it fits just barely over my chest. I can zip it up but I ... Read Moredon't want to gain a pound. As with most clothes the rest is a bit tent like. The vest is longer than my frame needs. I wish American sizes were based on actual measurements. I think that would make things more inclusive. I am a curvy woman and I like this vest for layering.
Hi Rene, thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We truly appreciate this feedback regarding adding the chest measurement in every item description. Don't hesitate to [contact us](https://help.patagonia.com/s/) in the future as we're happy to find that info for you.

Nice light weight vest
First off, the blue is gorgeous. It really is stunning. The vest is lightweight but keeps you warm. Definitely lighter weight than the down sweaters.
I absolutely loved the vest but unfortunately had to return it since it was too long. It would be nice if Patagonia would make their items in petite sizes.
I was looking for something lighter than my down vest to wear in the spring weather. I bought a nano vest a few years ago and they have definitely changed the fit. The small fits true to size where as my other one is a medium. I am a true small size person. I love the dark blue color. I know that I will get a lot of use out of this.
Love this vest! I had wanted a better puffy vest than the old, unbranded one I had been using from Goodwill these last several years- it just didnt have good insulating power. But this, oh baby! Its perfect. Great to layer and keep toasty in the cold, or to toss over a long sleeve on those its spring but not that warm days. Great packability for ca... Read Moremping as well. Glad I made the investment.
This vest is perfect for Michigan weather. So light weight but just the right about of warm for a chilly morning or evening. Easy to pack for a week-end away.
This is a great layer under a ski shell. I ordered a small and is a little big in the chest area. Im a 34A and there is plenty of room for anyone who is a B or C. Like how light it is and definitely keeps me warm on the slopes.
Zippered inside breast pocket big enough for your phone! Yes! Thank you. Zippered side pockets big enough for hands, YES!
High zippered collar is perfect for windy mornings. Love this vest
I love this vest. It fits great , it looks great, and I love the color. Perfect weight for me. Its the 4th Nano puff vest I own. Every one should have at least one.
The feather like feel makes it easy to grab and wear when heading outdoors to be in nature. I am happy I waited for it, the size was on back order for a few months but it was worth the wait! I didnt want a vest that felt too snugged, so I ordered up a size. Thank you for my first Patagonia purchase and I know not my last!
I have the same Nano Vest in black I purchased a few years ago and because it was a great product I decided to get a new one in a different color.

Thanks for letting us know Tanja! This sounds like you got a defective item. Please reach out to our customer service team to get a replacement set up.
I wear this vest daily! It suits so many variables and is super lightweight and warm. I can wear it over different tops and under my shell when needed. It's really perfect for so many situations.
We're so sorry that the Nano Puff® Vest wasn't what you expected. It's a pretty thin mid-layer which can be fluffed a bit by running it through a tumble dryer on low with a few dryer balls. A vest you may find more suitable is our [Micro Puff® Vest](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-micro-puff-vest/84090.html).

Perfect for gardening
Jackets and sweaters get too warm. Their sleeves will sometimes get caught on the plants, causing damage. This vest is just the right amount of warm and plant friendly.
The fit is very feminine, I love to wear it casually during the day or going out at night. And its nice and slim to wear under my ski jacket and its super warm when I need it! This is the second color I have purchased, and there will probably be another one in my closet soon.
I wanted a lightweight vest, so gave this one a try. Unfortunately the fit was not right for me. I'm 67 years old with the body of a mature woman. This vest was large in the breast area and did not fit over my hips, not a new problem for me. So I had to return it. I'm opting now for the Micro Puff vest. The Micro Puff jacket fits me becau...

I ended up returning this vest. I was looking for a nice lightweight down vest for multipurpose use. This vest seemed to fit the bill.

Love so much!
I think I got the last one in the country in Navy. Crazy about it. So lightweight and comfortable yet warm. I live in it. Great job, guys! Crazy about Patagonia!
This is the 2nd nano vest I have purchased. My first nano from a few years ago still looks great even after many wears and washes. Its light weight, warm, and so convenient to bring along everywhere.
I love this vest and have 3 colors. My last purchase, about 3 years ago, I bought in a XL. This time I went with a L as the XL was a bit too big in the arm holes. Great for travel, hiking and everyday wear.
I recently relocated to the Northeast from the Southwest and am trying to figure out my winter layering so I can continue to be active outdoors. I am tall and have a large chest, so I had to size up from a M or L to an XL. The length in that size is great. I am surprised by how warm these nano puff products are while also being lightweight. I purch... Read Moreased the matching jacket as well (in a size Large).
I have this vest in three colors. I love it. The perfect lightweight vest that keeps your core warm without bulk and perfect to layer under other jackets when cold. Love the fit! Not boxy and not super tight... flattering.
I purchased the Nano Puff Vest to wear in my office and under my (Patagonia) down coat to get there! It's brilliant! Just enough warmth, no weight, so comfortable. Patagonia does it again!
I own the Nano puffer sweater and love it. Thought this vest would be a great layer for walking / biking during cooler weather without the weight. Perfect for layering up as well. Not heavy, just right weight. I bought medium as I wanted it a little less fitted. Highly recommend this stylish little gem. Definitely worth the money.
This is my 2nd Nano Puff Vest; I got as a back up to the 1st one I bought because I literally use it every day, throughout the day (indoors and outdoors).
I suffer from chronic anemia and almost always feel cold as a result. So, I use this vest as an additional layer when I need it. I love how compact it is, and how it packs down so nicely into th... Read Moree internal pocket. I always keep it packed inside my purse in case I am out and about and need an extra layer. It's so lightweight and breathable that it always provides just the right amount of warmth.
It's especially helpful under my parka in the winter time, and it keeps me toasty warm in our (oftentimes) harsh Canadian winters. Thanks to this vest, I no longer suffer in cold weather and have come to actually enjoy the winter season more :)
In the spring/summer/fall, I wear it outdoors over a long sleeve shirt and it keeps me comfortable but not too warm. I highly recommend it!
Perfect vest for warm weather states. You can wear it from Oct through June. Its adds a little warmth and style to cool evening nights and chilly hiking days.
This is a great mid layer when its heckin cold, and a good solo layer when its only sort of cold. Ive layered it under my rain jacket for some cold rainy days, the extra puff has been very cozy. Also a huge fan of the pocket number and placement. I didnt give it five stars because the fit is a bit off for me (keeping it anyway!!). Im a small-cheste... Read Mored-big-hip girl, and this vest is designed for a little more up top and a little less in the caboose. If it opened up a little more in the hip, I could just size down (Im 56 and a sturdy 160. 34A bust, 41 hip). The extra room up top isnt super noticeable, so Im keeping it. Its cozy, has good pockets, is a great color (grape seed), and layers well. Who knows, maybe the extra space is actually helping me stay warm! I also love Patagonias willingness to fix it if I bust a zipper or whatever. Hoping to wear this for years to come.
Love the latest addition to my Patagonia collection! Perfect to wear around the house with a lightweight base layer on cool days or while out hiking as an extra layer. Based on reviews of a tight fit around hips, I ordered a large, but it was too big around chest and in arm holes. The medium fits perfect.
The vest is light weight, super warm, and perfect for a walk, run, or hike. I've used it daily since purchasing due to it being very cold in my home (no heater) and just for extra warmth. My measurements are 34" bust, 24" waist, 36" hips. I originally ordered the Small but had to exchange for an XSmall for a better fit. I highly... Read More recommend this as a staple for the long haul. It would be nice to have more color variety, but simple works.
Im sure the vest is a nice layer but it looked terrible on me. Im not particularly overweight but it made me look like I have a giant pregnant belly. I have wider hips and its definitely not cut for my body type. Alas, it went back.
This vest is the perfect in-between season warmth. I use it for light hiking, getting to yoga class when it's a little bit cold out, or paired with booties and jeans. The pockets are key for stowing keys and phones!
I love the vest but wish it was a tad bit longer. I am truly in between sizes m and l be decided to go with the medium. Overall I am pleased with the product.
This is a lovely vest, light and warm, but I didn't like the elastic around the arm holes that rode up around my shoulders. I went for the Better Sweater vest instead. It's cozy, warm, and fits nicely. I'm using this vest around the house, not out in the wilderness.
Thank you for the feedback on our Nano Puff Vest. We're sorry to hear that the hip area was too narrow for you. We're always happy to provide you with measurements to ensure you receive the perfect fit on the item you're interested in.

I love this vest
The vest is light, warm, durable. I love the inside upper left pocket! It holds my glasses or face mask where they can be easily reached.
This is my second Nano puff vest.
I now have two of these. I wear one almost daily (sailing Baja and Pacific Coastal Mexico or living in Ojai CA ).

I love down, but this vest is a nice later to wear under another jacket or coat, not bulky and I feel safer should I get caught in the rain. The color is gorgeous and I get many compliments. I wish it were not quite so long, but not a dealbreaker. Cheers!
I love this vest! Being in Texas, we have milder winters and some puffer vests are so thick and insulated, that they are uncomfortable on those days when the temps get warmer.

It is slim fitting , thin layer underneath fits best. Slim in hips, larger in bust area. Fits well under a jacket. Pricey- hopefully it will last a long time.
I purchased this vest as a layer for the outdoor winter SoulCycle classes here in DC. Today was my first day wearing it and it was perfect.

Love this warm, comfortable vest! I got the vest in grey. I like to wear clothes that feels good and this vest fits the ticket! Very happy with this vest.
My wife really likes these. Not too warm and easy to throw on inside or out.
She has quite a few and wears them regularly during the winter months here in Va.
The Nano Puff Vest is warm, comfortable, and functional.
Just a fantastic product. There was a mixup during delivery and Patagonia quickly resolved the issue. Thank you for the exceptional customer service and experience.
I am so happy with my vest. I ordered it for my husband to give to me for Christmas. Its very cozy, perfect for running/walking/hiking and city life. I will get the jacket next year.
This is my 3rd Patagonia vest, and I love it as much as the other two. It's the perfect weight to throw over a sweater or flannel, and looks super cute, as well. I am 5'2", athletic build, and the Small gives me room for the layers under.
My order was exactly what I expected from Patagonia, top notch! They continuously sell great products. They may be a little on the pricier side, but they make up for it with the quality.
So light, so comfortable!! And keeps me sooo warm. I got a Medium so its snug to my body. If i need more warmth, I just throw something over it and its pretty toasty without the bulkiness. Must have if youre looking for a vest. Highly recommend.
Beautifully made, very lightweight and a good fit. Long enough to cover hips. Worth every penny! I will order earlier next year so that another color in my size will be available. What a great vest!
I love my Nano Puff vest. I have 3 of them and they are my "go to" for outdoor activity and as a second layer of light warmth under my nano puff jackets. Couldn't live without them! I also like that I can send it back for repairs.

Great!
Warm and lightweight. A little big but I like to layer.
I love the added warm without all the bulk. Spring in early fall I can wear The vest alone during the colder months I layer it under jacket. Couldnt be happier with this product. Wish they were more colors

The down sweater vests and jackets I have are 8 to 10 years old. Patagonia is expensive, but it is quality and it lasts.
I have been buying Patagonia for years, despite sizing being somewhat unreliable, meaning if I went into a store, I would try on several L vests and pick the one that allows me to layer, inside and out.
