In a moment of bad judgement, I bought a nano puff jacket in XL. The idea was to be able to wear a layer underneath it comfortably. It works that way, but is baggy/goofy on me when worn alone. In the interests of Patagonia research, I decided to get a micropuff jacket in large. It fits perfectly. You see someone in Manhattan wearing a nano puff jacket approximately every thirty seconds, so wearing a micro puff is a nice change of pace. It is a comfortable jacket. I really like the dark blue color and the drop in pockets. I cannot tell if it is truly warmer than the nano puff or not. I have worn it over a shirt and tie to to work and over a t shirt on the weekend. It, along with my better sweater, will be a Swiss Army knife travel garment. It Is worth the premium for ...

This is a great jacket for 60 to maybe high 40's. Also a great jacket to use as a semi base layer on really cold days or use to layer when you don't want to wear a heavy coat. I use this jacket mainly early Spring, sometimes late summer on a colde 50 degree night maybe in Maine, and I use it all throughout Fall. The jacket is warm for how light it's but if you are looking for more warth the sweater jacket/vest are better options. My main qualm with this jacket is that it went from being regular/relaxed fit to now regular/slim. I normally take a XS is all my Patagonia jackets at 5'5" 140lbs and this just barely fits me length wise and waist wise. I did try a size S but found the arms to be massive and the fit to be way too baggy. So I can't really layer under the ... MoreThis is a great jacket for 60 to maybe high 40's.

Like some reviews mention you might need to size up or in some case size wise this jacket might be too much of a tweener.

I returned this jacket because my wife surprised me with a gift of the same jacket.I have a down sweater of the same size, Large, which fits a little looser than the micro puff. I love them both. As a Patagonia devotee for many reasons, one distinct product defect consistently stands out ! :ERRATICALLY DIFFERENT SIZES ALL LABLED THE SAME ! I have a number of shirts labeled LARGE, some of which are too small to wear, with others that fit perfectly !Another example, though not so radical, is the different fits for my above-described puff and down jackets/sweaters. As always, gratitude for your products, for your conservation efforts, et al, and for this opportunity for me to share my experience with you. Keep rolling, Trout Black

Decided to go with the micro puff after having a nano puff for years. Standouts for me are the lighter materials and fit of this jacket. It is a little more roomier than the nano puff which I like. Its also very lightweight. Others noted the tight neck when fully zipped which is true but its not too tight for me. I also wish they included the little rubber piece on the zipper and the soft material at the very top of the zipper where it hits your chin. Feels a little odd to exclude those details at this price point.
I have the current version of the Macro & Micro, but recently received via wornwear a near deadstock XS 2004 micro pullover. I is was floored by how it was graded great yet I couldnt even find the flaws they mentioned, virtually untouched. I called customer service and they confirmed from old catalogs it was indeed from the first season they were made. Whoa. Cut baggy like a snap t, long huge sleeves w half elastic cuffs like a Houdini, polarguard delta (I believe stated at 80g could be wrong) is WAY warmer than todays micro, on par w Macro. No loss of loft or performance after 18 years. Its mid January here in the 804, the snow and fair share of cold rain have yet to really effect the DWR, this OGs a monster under a rainshadow, but I wanted to see how it stacks up ...

Its mid January here in the 804, the snow and fair share of cold rain have yet to really effect the DWR, this OGs a monster under a rainshadow, but I wanted to see how it stacks up to the current release pieces in my daily kit rotation. called back and they said WW didnt apply a new coat, it just revived that well after their wash & dry. The legends of the old deluge repellent are verified, Todays real feel is 14°F per dark sky: cap air crew/R1 air hoody/OG micro. Even without a hood and lacking a full zip or pockets its not as light as a 22 one, but its still light AF for the thermal retention you get. 18 yrs old it was king of its day, & it still holds court. W the cuffs design its insulated all the way the the seam edge, & its spacious sleeves allow for tucking in, and even tucking into each other for max therm so I dont really need pockets gloves or not . Its the PERFECT piece for throwing on immediately after a freezing cold run to catch the last bit of heat Im still dumping out & avoid the chills. I wont sell it at any price, and will continue to maintainance it. STAY IN PLAY!
Just got the item today. First impressions:1. I've had a Nano-puff Jacket for several years, size medium, regular fit. This Micro-puff jacket is also a medium, regular fit. The Micro-puff is noticeably bigger -- the body is much roomier and the sleeves are a bit longer. If Patagonia still had "relaxed" sizing, this would be a 'medium, relaxed fit' item. For me, it's fine; others expecting the old 'nano-puff' fit might be disappointed.2. Note that, unlike the nano, the micro doesn't have a zippered inner pocket :-( Not sure why but Patagonia doesn't think we need zippered inside pockets in pretty much anything.3. Jacket works for my intended use. 4 Stars because no secure inside pocket.
1) The inside pockets are so loose that when the jacket is worn open they hang outside the zipper and must be pushed back.2) The cheap tag scratches the back of your neck if long sleeve t-shirt or collar-less base layer is worn underneath. The tag (and cheap logo tag) SHOULD BE printed or embroidered on.3) The zipper pull and insert is so tiny that you need a magnifying glass to find and hook up with each wearing.For such a high class company AND such an expensive jacket to show such LACK OF ATTENTION TO DETAIL is embarrassing.I really like the jacket and will keep it, have the label removed, and just put up with the flaws.
The Micro was ordered in appreciation of its more muted fabric. Also a draw, the more novel sewing pattern. Upon arrival it revealed itself that one can approach the envelope of what a flyweight piece offers ~ at least this being so where general non-technical use and wear is expected. While the size M fit well in the chest, shoulders and sleeves... the cut of the collar didn't come across as 'accommodating.' More confining was my take. It also rode up more than it should (unless it had been cut more loosely so you had more protection.) Being able to fully zip a piece like this ~ it's not an area of reasonable concession. Not one where there's latitude. Something either fits well enough and you can use it. Or it doesn't and you can't. * My frame is much like those ...

One can't have it all. Trade-offs arise. And this was a piece clearly designed with a more directed purpose. But noting that the pockets came off as more borderline insubstantial... this too helped to decide that this become a return.
The Micro Puff is a very nice jacket.I particularly like the new sewing pattern -- it is much, much better than previous seasons, which, in my opinion, look either too square (like a brick building) or too round (like rolls of bubble wrap). Please keep this pattern and keep experimenting with new designs. I really strongly prefer the new design.I think there are two small areas for improvement:1. Warmth. The jacket is very warm *for its weight* but is not quite warm enough to wear with only a shirt in 40-50F/5-10C. If it's possible to increase warmth a bit more while adding marginal weight, that would be perfect for Santa Barbara County pretty much year round.2. The breast pockets are pretty deep.

For the most part this is a great piece of gear. Its very warm and lightweight. Works great as a medium-warm puffy, or as an extra warm (albeit non-breathable) mid-layer.I find this to be warmer than the nano-puff line of jackets. (And its lighter of course.) It fits in a nice place just below the Das Light and Down Sweater in warmth.My problem with this jacket, and a few other jackets from Patagonia, is that the neck is too tight when zipped all the way up. It presses uncomfortably on my Adam's apple. I'm 6'0, 174 lbs, and I don't have a huge neck. The Micro Puff hoody does the same thing when zipped up all the way with the hood down. (As do the R1 Tech Face Jacket and Thermal Air Shed Jacket.)By comparison, the Nano-air Jacket's neck is not too tight. But its ... MoreFor the most part this is a great piece of gear.
