Dale,
The Morning Glory Skirt does not have any pockets.

The outer material for the Down Sweater is a lightweight recycled polyester with a micro rip stop in it for durability, and Patagonia's Deluge DWR coating for resistance to wind and water.

The Alpine Guide Pant is a great all around pant, and would be perfect for the summer climb on Rainier. They're mid-weight, but breathe really well so they're versatile and work well in a wide range of temps

Snowman, your observations are right on the money -- the Rubicon Rider isn't designed to be a fully waterproof piece. The heavier fabric is full H2No and waterproof, w/ the Patagonia Deluge DWR for the rest of the jacket. Definitely good enough for the drier Boulder and Colorado winter conditions. If you're out in the wet Northeast weather all day you might want a fully waterproof jacket, but the Rubicon Ride is ok in wet snow and light rain for shorter periods of time. The good news is that since it's not down if it does wet out the synthetic Thermo Green insulation will still keep you warm.

Hi Peggy, it does appear that the 3T Snow Patrol Snow Suit in Sea Pink is available in 3T

Sarah,
The Primo Down Jacket combines a medium weight down jacket with a fully waterproof 3 layer shell. So for pure warmth there are warmer pieces out there, but neither of the two you mentioned will work as well in wet and nasty weather as the Primo Down.

Large should do it, medium might be a little snug and short in the arms. I'm 6'1 170 and the large fits me perfectly

unfortunately the Fiona won't be on sale until the spring, and will most likely sell out before then.

I'm 6'1" 170 and love my large. Still a little snug with good length in the arms and body. Definitely one of my favorite pieces of clothing.

Garnet here in the Synchilla vest is a nice red.

The Patagonia Cord Pant featured here is the 32" regular inseam.

The Rain Shadow Trench is not insulated, but check out the Tres Parka, it's a waterproof shell similar to the Rain Shadow Trench, but with a mid thigh length coat that zips in for the warmest 3 in 1 insulated rain jacket out there.

yes, the Integral Jacket is just slightly lighter than the Guide Jacket, 6.2 oz fabric for the Integral vs 7.6 oz for the Guide.

Molly, the image on the Patagonia web site is a more accurate representation of Real Red, slightly darker than what's pictured here.

Calin- yes, I think a small in the Primo Down would fit you well.

Yes, there is the Powder Bowl Jacket which is more of a shell, and the insulated Powder Bowl is much warmer.

Ben-
Yes, actually the Powder Bowl Jacket is fully seam taped for waterproofing

Katja, with the right layers the Sidewall Jacket will definitely be warm enough at 5 degrees F.

Actually the Sidewall Jacket is fully seam taped and waterproof, and uses Patagonia's waterproof/breatheable membrane H2No.

Emily,
The Sidewall Jacket is totally waterproof and will absolutely keep you warm and dry in rainy-wet conditions. It's got Patagonia's H2No waterproof membrane that works really well.

David, the Nano Puff has a little bit of a sheen to it but I wouldn't call it shiny at all in person.

Brynda, unfortunately the Retro X isn't designed to zip into another jacket.

bento, the Negril Trench coat is 98% organic cotton w/ 2% spandex for stretch.

Sorry, I don't think any other sizes will be available in time for the promotion. Nano Puffs were a runaway hit this year and sold very quickly.

Tommy, the Down Sweater is a great layering option if you're looking for the warmest possible combination. It'll keep you warm in the coldest of conditions, and be a great warm jacket on it's own. The R3 is also warm, but provides slightly less warmth and is more breathable and will be a better option if you do a lot of hiking or traversing and heat up often. So if you run hot and sweat a lot I'd go R3, and if you want to be super warm and aren't worried about overheating go Down Sweater. hope that helps!

Yes, the Fitz Roy Down Hoody has a draw string at the waist.

Blaine, the Patagonia DAS Parka might be the best bet for you. It's longer than any other puff jacket Patagonia makes and is super warm w 160 grams of Primaloft One.

The Capilene 3 is a great top and should keep you warm (and dry) on your runs in the 30's and 40's. Some people might like a light jacket, but personally I run in similar temps with a Cap 3 top and a beanie and I'm comfortable.
Merino's great in it's own right, but the Capilene 3 will be much more durable over time, and it handles moisture a lot better so you'll stay drier.

Nolan, the Heavyweight Mountaineering socks are super durable, and definitely machine washable and dryable and should hold up fine in the wash with your other clothes.

The Rubicon Rider is designed to be a slightly looser fitting ski piece, but not quite a relaxed fit. It's going to be a bit longer and a bit looser in the body. Might be a spot where you'd be fine w/ the medium

Hi, the White/Cyan is last years jacket, and is still discounted for that reason.

Alli,
The R4 Jacket is a great winter piece and will be very warm for your Wisconsin winters. It's a warm fleece to begin with, and has a stretch windproof laminate that makes it incredibly warm.
For sizing reference, the medium jacket here has a center back length of 25"

The R4 Jacket will be warmer overall than the hercules. The R4 has a stretch windproof laminate, and a high loft fleece inside and out that makes it the warmest fleece jacket on the market.

yes, the 737 grams garment weight from Patagonia is correct - typo here at Backcountry.

Brian, the Storm Pants have a nice fit. Not too baggy or too tight for a touring pant. Enough room for a base layer underneath and the lightweight mesh lining inside is good for wicking moisture, and a little extra warmth when you need it. Nice side vents to keep you cool on the way up. Great touring pant overall

yes, the hand pockets on the Micro Puff Hoody are beneath the insulation and very warm, but not fleece lined.

R stands for Regulator which is Patagonia's technical fleece offering. The lower the R # the lighter weight and more breathable the piece. R1 is a lightweight fleece with a grid interior, R2 is a high loft medium weight fleece, R3 has a high loft interior which is very warm and a very wind resistant face, and R4 is full wind resistant and the warmest fleece jacket on the market. hope that helps?

The Speed Ascent is a fantastic jacket. It offers great warmth for a soft shell, and is going to breath better than the Gamma SV when you really get moving. The R2 fleece lining inside the Speed Ascent is very soft and very, very warm. Great jacket!

Mary, the Kids Down Sweater is a great jacket and offers medium warmth for a down piece. It's warm, but you might want another layer for your daughter under or over the Down Sweater when it really gets cold in upstate NY.

Neil, the large R1 Balaclava is slightly longer, and has a bigger head circumference as well. The hat sizing chart is fairly accurate for this too.

Rubicon Rider would be a good choice, or an even warmer one for you would be the Patagonia Pipe Down, it's a wareproof down puffy that is very warm!

For pure warmth the Sligshot Down Jacket will be warmer than the Down Sweater. The Down Sweater is designed to be very warm, while still being lightweight, layerable, and packable. It is a very warm jacket, but might not be enough in temps approaching zero. Also see the Fitz Roy Down Hoody for the warmest down jacket from Patagonia.

The fabric for the Down Sweater is a lot tougher than you'd think for how light it is. Patagonia tests fabrics extensively before they're approved to go to production for abrasion resistance and tear strength. Patagonia's Iron Clad Guarantee backs up the durability of the jacket and they'll take care of you if anything bad happens

You can't go wrong with the Nano Puff. Great jacket, super compressible and the PrimaLoft One insulation is the best synthetic insulation out there. It's very packable too - packs down to just a little bigger than a softball. It's perfect for summer in the Cascades.

The Lightweight R4 is going to be warmer overall because it's totally windproof, except for the R1 panels you mentioned. R3 is definitely more breahtable. It's got a high loft/fuzzy interior that insulates well, and the jacket still does pretty well in the wind. So maybe on it's own LW R4 will be warmer, but layered R3 would be warmer and more breathable in any application.

Andrew, you should be fine, the buckle for the Tech Web Belt is 100% aluminum.

The Fitz Roy Down Hoody uses 181 grams of Down and the Down Sweater uses 85 grams. 800 fill refers to the quality of the down, the higher the # the loftier the down is and the better the quality. The better down insulates better and is softer.

What size are you interested in? The measurements for the large are 26" from the neck seam down for the front, and 29" for the back.

both jackets would work great for the climbs up Rainier and Shasta. The Shelter Stone is a little burlier shell and would provide a little more protection when it's super wet and nasty out, and the Stretch Ascent is lighter weight, more packable, and has a little more stretch to accomodate movement. Both are completely waterproof and breathable.

Pete, I think XL will be the best size for you, the waist and length should be perfect.

The Down Sweater's not designed to compete with the Sub Zero, check out the Patagonia Fitz Roy Down Hoody though. It uses nicer down than the sub zero, and will get you to zero and well below.

I doubt you'll find a warmer jacket out there from Mtn Harwear or anyone else out there. The Fitz Roy Down Hoody uses some of the finest down available and is made using baffled construction within the jacket so cold drafts have no way to make it through to your core. The other jackets you mentioned are warm, but only use 650 or 700 fill down which is not as lofty and warm as the 800 fill you'll find here.

JCN, the Primo Jacket ranks high on the amazingness scale! I've got a large in the green oasis color and I am super stoked on it. Bomber construction, great features, and a killer fit. It's truly a regular fit, enough room to layer, but not too baggy. I'd base your sizing decision on how much you want to layer underneath and how loosely you like your jackets too fit. I don't layer a ton, but like a slightly looser fit so I'm in a large. go for it, you'll be stoked for sure.

There is 181 grams of 800 fill down in the Fitz Roy Down Hoody.

The Fitz Roy Down Jacket is a little over sized, but not huge. I'm 6'1 170 and could wear a medium but my large is super comfortable and cozy

Yes, you can change a diaper while your baby is in this bunting without having to take it off. The leg zips open the bottom half completely.

I wear a 34 in other Patagonia technical as well as casual pants and a 34 in the Backcountry Guide Pant is perfect for me. I do tend to size most of my pants up slightly, as my actual waist size is closer to a 32. There's plenty of room to layer a piece of two of long underwear. They're a mid-weight softshell with and 8.6 oz fabric and a slight brushed lining inside.

Meg, the Patagonia Rock Guide pant would work well for xc skiing, also see the Alpine Guide Softshell Pant or the Patagonia Backcountry guide pant. Those last two options have more of an elastic cuff to keep snow out, and are still a breathable and water resistant soft shell pant.

Karen, yes the Micro Puff hoody is machine washable and dryable.

Brook, the Rubicon Rider would be a good jcaket for super cold temps, with plenty of layer underneath as well. The Patagonia Fitz Roy Down Jacket is another great option. Down is the best insulation in the world, and will keep you the warmest during your Yukon Winters.

The Slingshot Down Vest just has snaps down the front. Great vest!

Ellie, no, this is more of a casual piece. For a rainproof trench coat check out the Rain Shadow Trench, All Time Trench, or the Tres Parka all from Patagonia.

Laura, yes - check out the Downtown Loft Jacket! It's the same as the Downtown Loft Parka, but the shorter length that you're looking for.

Babette, the Tres Parka is a very, very warm jacket! When you've got both jackets zipped together you could go out in some very cold temps and be fine, and the outer shell is fully waterproof so you'll be fine in nasty storms. The back of the down coat is quilted similar to the front.

The DAS Parka is definitely a puffy, but it's not super michelin man or staypuff marshmallow. The Primaloft insulation provides a ton of warmth and not a lot of bulk, so for a jacket this warm the DAS is a great choice.

One of Capilene's attributes over wool is definitely it's great durability. Definitely machine dryable and will last forever like mentioned below. However don't discount Capilene as that much cooler than wool. There are definitely some wool pieces that are warmer than Capilene, but this Capilene 4 bottom is very very warm!

That's a good question regarding the logo, not sure what the exact placement is for all colors honestly, I can try to get the answer and get back to you. The photo above is a pretty good representation of Seaport blue, but it's even a little darker and richer than what's shown, it's a great color for sure.

The Alpine Guide Pants are designed as a backcountry ski and mountaineering pant. They breathe really well and still provide good protection against wind and water. They're a great ski pant for all but the wettest conditions.

The interior lining for the Nano Puff is the same as the exterior shell. Still fairly soft and smooth against the skin and doesn't get too clammy when you heat up.

might be tough to track down that Retro X as it's discontinued product. Not sure that they're available anywhere right now.

although it doesn't have a "3 in 1" zipper, the Down Sweater is a great layering piece. I can't imagine ever getting cold if you've got the Down Sweater under a nice hard shell.

Catherine,
yes, the hood for the Downtown Loft Parka is also down filled and very warm although it does not have a cinch cord. There are no inner cuffs, just a simple clean cuff. The zipper goes almost all the way down - stops about 4 inches from the bottom and is a 2 way zip if you want to have the bottom more open. The snaps also go the same length so you've got double reinforcement for warmth when it gets nasty. Let me know what size you'd like the center back length for and I can get back to you.
edit: 45" medium 46" large

Emily, depends what you're looking for... The Retro-X is a very warm windproof fleece. And the R2 is a lightweight piece with more of a technical background, designed to be warm, compressible, and lightweight. Both are great to layer and super comfortable and long lasting fleece.

Melisse, the sleeve length for the medium Fiona Parka is 34.75" and the large is 35.75"

Lisa, the Downtown Loft Parka does not have fleece cuffs featured, but it's still a very very warm jacket!

Melisse, the medium Downtown Loft Jacket has 34.5" sleeves, and the large bumps up to 35.5"

Ann, the medium Downtown Loft Jacket has 34.5" sleeves, and the large bumps up to 35.5"

Barret, I love mine and have worn it a ton on the bike, hiking, and skiing. Great all around pack that is super lightweight. Should be great for biking every day.

Sandra, the shell fabric for the Downtown Loft Parka has a DWR coating to block the wind, so between that, and the thickness of the coat and the down insulation it will do a very good job blocking the wind and keeping you warm in the coldest temps.

Capilene 4 has the higher warmth to weight ratio, although Wool 4 is warmer overall, it's like a nice sweater you can run around in. Not too take anything away from Cap 4 though. Very warm, very light and super compressible.

go for it, the Down Sweater is a great lightweight option to your mtn hardwear puffy. No "stay-puff" look to it at all and it still offers a lot of warmth. I hardly wear my big puffy now that I've got a Down Sweater - love it!

The R4 is warmer than the Lightweight R4, the fit between the two is very similar. and the Lightweight R4 overall is a little more breathable due to the R1 fabric under the arms which is lighter weight and has no windproof membrane to it.

The Down Sweater Full-zip hoody appro 80 grams of 800 fill down.

The Nano Puff's very warm, I wear mine outside a ton on it's own during the winter and it's fine. Maybe for the coldest and nastiest days you'll want something more, but it's definitely more than just a fall sweater and if you layer a fleece underneath you can be comfortable in some pretty cold temps

Jim, the Rain Shadow jacket is not a short raincoat, but if you're looking for something that goes mid thigh look at the Patagonia All Time Shell.

Roxanne, the hood for the Downtown Loft Park is not removable. If you're looking for a removable hood in a long down coat check out the Patagonia Down With It jacket

The R4 fleece jacket unfortunately would not zip into a North Face shell. The only Patagonia jackets that are designed to zip into shells are some of the ladies long down coats.

Rebecca, the Merino 3 pants are machine washable with cold water, and lay them flat to dry.

Martha, the Stretch Ascent does not have a fleece lining inside. It's a very warm jacket though for just being a shell.

Tom, definitely go Powder Bowl. The Ascentionist is a great soft shell, but if it's wet/nasty weather performance you're looking for the Powder Bowl Jacket is the best one for you.

I can upload a picture of mine, it's approx smaller than a football?

Wes, I think a large would still fit you as well and make for a super comfortable fit. Medium would be ok, but with a little less length and not as much room for layering underneath.

For the R3 Jacket you're between sizes and I would recommend a small if you're looking for more of a trim fit.

Wes, all of these R1 Pullovers feature the same fit.

Courtney, I think a small Downtown Loft Parka would fit you well and sleeve length should not be an issue. The sleeves for the medium are slightly longer, but I think overall a medium would be too big for you.

Nikita, the Rain Shadow Jacket is lightweight and packable, but does not have a pocket that it stashes into at this time.

from your description I think the R3 Jacket is the best fleece for you wife. It's very warm, and still offers good breathability for layering.

The two R4 fleeces are both windproof, and very warm on their own. The R4 is a fuzzier, warmer fleece, and the lightweight R4 has the same windproof membrane, but a lighter fleece, and breathable R1 fabric under the arms w/ no windproofing.

yes, the Merino Hooded Cardigan will definitely give you tush coverage, and is designed to hit mid thigh.
