Our Verdict
The Patagonia Women's Down With It Parka is a testament to eco-friendly design without compromising warmth or style. This knee-length parka is perfect for those seeking serious cold-weather protection in urban settings or during light outdoor activities.
Insulated with 600-fill-power recycled down, the parka offers an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. The 100% recycled polyester shell with PFC-free DWR finish provides weather resistance while aligning with Patagonia's commitment to sustainability.
Key features include a removable, insulated hood for versatility, a two-way front zipper for easy movement, and welted handwarmer pockets for comfort. The chevron-inspired baffles and princess seams create a flattering, modern silhouette that doesn't sacrifice function for form.
At around 1121g for a medium, it's a substantial piece of outerwear, but its warmth justifies the weight for cold-weather use. The Fair Trade Certified™ construction adds an ethical dimension to this environmentally conscious garment.
