Patagonia Nano Puff Mitts

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

The Patagonia Nano Puff Mitts are a warm, packable mitt with a great fit that works well in a layered glove system.

Patagonia says: 

These warm, windproof and water-resistant mitts have a cozy brushed tricot lining and are insulated with 100% recycled PrimaLoft® Gold Eco with P.U.R.E.™ technology, which reduces carbon emissions compared to conventional production methods.

Our Verdict

Patagonia’s Nano Puff Mitts are a synthetic mitt that are surprisingly packable and perform well in extremely cold conditions. They have an excellent fit with room for a layering glove underneath.

The mitts do not have an adjustment point around the wrist, but an elasticated closure ensures warmth is trapped in the glove. The palm is reinforced with synthetic suede, which feels well-made and robust.

The gloves add a lot of warmth for their weight and packable size, making them perfect for stashing in your pack, even if you don’t think you will need them as an emergency insulation layer.
