Patagonia Triolet Jacket
The bombproof shell for when conditions get serious.
The Triolet is the jacket you reach for when the forecast looks ugly and you're going anyway. Three-layer GORE-TEX with a burly 75-denier face fabric — this isn't a spring touring shell, it's built for the kind of Sierra storms that shut resorts down. Ice climbing, mountaineering, high-alpine ski objectives — anywhere you need a shell that won't quit.
It layers over everything without fighting you, the helmet-compatible hood stays put in wind, and pit zips give you somewhere to put the heat when you're moving hard. Chest pockets clear a harness. Hip pockets clear a pack belt. The details are dialed for people who actually use them.
Best for: Ice climbing, mountaineering, high-alpine ski touring, resort days when conditions are genuinely bad, hiking in inclement weather.
Not for: High-output skinning in mild conditions — it'll cook you. See the Dawn Patrol for that.
Fit: True to size. Size up one if you're layering a thick midlayer puffy underneath.
