What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I throw this jacket on for cold-weather trail runs and windy hikes—it's lightweight but still keeps the chill out. The underarm panels let heat escape just enough so I don’t overheat mid-effort. It’s technical without being bulky or restrictive."When the wind picks up and the temps drop, the Wind Shield Hybrid Jacket is what we reach for. Patagonia designed this sleek soft-shell piece to keep us moving fast and comfortably in cold conditions. Whether we're knocking out pre-dawn trail runs or staying warm on active hikes, this jacket blends protection and breathability right where we need it. Stretchy soft-shell fabric with a weather-resistant finish blocks wind and light moisture, while brushed terry panels dump excess heat during high-output efforts. The soft Capilene Cool lining keeps it comfortable against skin, and HeiQ® Pure odor control means we can wear it again before laundry day. Reflective details and functional pockets round out this lightweight, cold-weather essential.
