Don't wait! My favorite Arc'teryx jacket is 30% off in this REI summer deal
While the Patagonia Nano Puff may be my first love when it comes to high-tech and versatile jackets, a very close second is the Arc'teryx Atom Insulated Hoody. Lighter, but a bit pricier than its rival, the Atom Hoody doesn't tend to go on sale very often. However, right now, you can score one of my favorite pieces of outerwear — and I've tested literally hundreds of jackets — for 30% off. That drops the cost of the Arc'teryx Atom Insulated Hoody to just $209, down from $300. This deal is on the men's Arc'teryx Atom Insulated Hoody in 'Soulsonic' (blue) with sizes ranging from small to XXL, still available. Lightweight and weather-resistant, warm yet breathable, this high-tech piece of gorpware is fully worth the hype. Not only does the Atom Insulated Hoody weigh less than the Patagonia Nano Puff, it's also more breathable — but just as warm — thanks to performance stretch fleece side panels. With no shortage of zippered pockets and adjustment points, including at the hem and on the hood, the Atom Insulated hoody performs remarkably well on its own, as your main outer, or under something heavier. Still, it's treated with a water-resistant finish for good measure. Made from 100% synthetic materials, including the insulation, the garment can easily be compressed and packed down to save space when traveling. It's also fairly wrinkle-resistant and flattering in its cut, without being restrictive. Plus, similar to Patagonia, Arc'teryx is phenomenal about standing beside its garments and craftsmanship with free or reasonably-priced repairs and replacements for the life of the jacket.

I test outdoor gear for a living — and the best Patagonia jacket I've ever owned is 30% off right now
I test outerwear for a living, and my closet is absolutely stuffed. That might sound like a good problem to have, but it often leads to overwhelming indecisiveness. Fortunately, I've got my Patagonia Nano Puff Jacket, the longest-serving piece of outerwear I own, and my most reliable companion to reach for when all else fails. Normally, a cool $239, this last-you-a-lifetime jacket is 30% off through Patagonia directly. Better yet, the deal applies to both men's and women's styles, with ample colors and sizes to choose from. Men can save 30% on my favorite jacket right now by shopping Patagonia directly. With eight colors to select from and sizes ranging from XS to XXXL, there's something for everyone. Women can also save $73 off the cost of the Nano Puff Jacket through Patagonia, with a total of eight styles to choose from, including my personal favorite, 'Rock Melon.' What makes the Nano Puff so darn good? Outrageously lightweight and packable, yet immensely well insulated, this go-to functions flawlessly as both a main outer jacket and an inner insulating layer, depending on the weather. It's also water and wind-resistant. For example, my Patagonia Nano Puff joins me under my oversized ski jacket on each and every snowboard mission, sans very warm spring riding days. It's also one of my preferred jackets for air travel, with elastic sleeves that easily roll up. When stuffed inside the zippered chest pocket, this Patagonia converts into a small but mighty head/neck pillow; it also takes up little luggage space in this form. Having received my first Patagonia Nano Puff jacket as a gift all the way back in 2012, Patagonia has stood by the garment, replacing it once and repairing it twice since. The charge? Zero dollars.

Don't wait for winter! My favorite Patagonia vest is $57 off right now
Trust me, I know what you're thinking — it's a heatwave, why on earth would I buy a padded vest? Because, dear reader, the vest in question is a Patagonia Nano Puff Vest, and it just went on sale. To celebrate Amazon Prime Day, a lot of brands have launched summer sales, and the Patagonia sale at REI is worth shopping for right now. Position yourself in front of a fan, and chuck one of the Patagonia Nano Puff vests in your basket, as it's discounted to $132 at REI right now. I just bought a second one and read on to find out why. The deal is on the vest in five different colors. I already own the versatile black vest, but decided to pick it up in this thermal blue colorway. At the time of writing, most of the sizes are still in stock at REI. The men's vest is also on sale in four different colors, including black. There's still a lot of sizes in stock, but hurry, there won't be for long! I review fitness gear for a living, and the Patagonia Nano Puff Vest is one of the best options available. It's a seriously lightweight layer that packs away into almost nothing, but it keeps you warm when the weather drops. I've owned mine for the better part of a decade, and it still looks like new, but since having a baby, I've decided to get a second in a slightly bigger size. Wrapped in a windproof coating, this vest is the layer you want in your pack from autumn through to spring. It contains Patagonia's PrimaLoft Gold Insulation, which is water-repellent and retains 98% of its insulating ability even when wet. There are two zippered pockets on the front for all your essentials, and a drawcord hem to keep the weather out. It's a must-have, whether you're heading to Yosemite or just walking the dog around the block. Plus, with 29% off, now is a great time to buy. We probably won't see this vest on sale again till Black Friday, and it's not always on sale in core colors like black, so grab it while you can!
