Pacaya 2.0 Insulated Hooded Jacket - Men's

About this find

The Pacaya 2.0 Insulated Hooded Jacket from Cotopaxi is made for chilly days when you stay on the move. The main body is 100% recycled nylon. The secondary body is 97% recycled polyester with 3% spandex, and hybrid stretch panels run from the side seam through the sleeve so your arms have room to swing.

Inside, the insulation is Imbotex Millefiori, a blend of 40% recycled wool and 60% recycled low-melting polyester. The wool comes from pre-consumer scraps, so it gives leftover material a second job. The insulation helps regulate heat, and the breathable build suits hiking and skiing. It also works as a mid layer under a waterproof shell in stormy weather.

The regular fit leaves space for a base layer. An adjustable hood and an adjustable hem let you dial in the fit and close out drafts. Two zippered hand pockets keep your hands warm and hold small items, while the interior chest pocket is a good spot for things you want kept close and out of sight.

When the day warms up, the jacket packs into itself, so it takes up little room in a bag or pack. If you plan to wear it under a rain shell, try the pair together before you head out so the sleeves and hood sit comfortably. That quick check saves you from adjusting layers on the trail.
