Patagonia Torrentshell 3L Jacket Women's

When the forecast turns foul, a reliable rain shell is non-negotiable. The Patagonia Torrentshell 3L Jacket for women delivers uncompromising waterproof protection without the weight or bulk of traditional hardshells. Built around Patagonia's H2No® Performance Standard 3-layer fabric, this jacket pairs a 100% recycled nylon ripstop face with a tricot backer for next-to-skin comfort and durable weather defense. A PFC-free DWR finish sheds moisture while fully taped seams and a storm-ready hood keep you dry from trailhead to summit.

Who is it for
