Patagonia Mens Das Parka Larimar Blue (Autumn 2012)
The definitive belay parka, for use everywhere from Alaska to the Alps to the Karakoram, the DAS Parka delivers exactly what the serious storm-battling alpinist needs: idiot-proof warmth. Simply put, it sheds snow, blocks wind, and the best-in-class, high-loft hollow-fiber PrimaLoft® One (170-g) insulation stays warm, even when wet. The light yet tough polyester quad-ripstop shell fabric is treated with a Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish and is reinforced at the shoulders, elbows and hips. An adjustable, helmet-compatible hood and the tall collar protect your face. Finer points: insulated handwarmer pockets, zippered chest pocket, inside mesh pockets for drying gloves and a 2-way zip that lets you see your belay device. Stuffsack included.
