Pacaya 2.0 Insulated Hooded Jacket - Women's

This hooded jacket is designed for the effort zone most insulation ignores: moving steadily in cool air without breaking into a full sweat. The fill is a blend of reclaimed wool scraps and polyester, which manages heat differently than synthetic puff alone—it buffers temperature swings instead of trapping every degree you generate.

The shell is recycled nylon across the torso and arms, with stretchy polyester panels running from the side seams through the sleeves. That hybrid construction lets you reach, twist, and hike without the fabric binding or riding up. The hood adjusts with a single pull, and the hem cinches to seal out drafts when you stop moving.

Two zippered hand pockets sit at hip level, and there's a chest pocket inside for a phone or wallet. The whole jacket stuffs into its own pocket to become a bundled pillow or pack filler. Both colors—Fig and Azure—use fabrics salvaged from pre-consumer waste streams, so the environmental cost stays lower than virgin materials.

Wear it alone on dry fifty-degree days or under a shell when weather turns wet. The fit is regular, meaning it layers over a base or fleece without excess fabric, and the stretch panels keep everything mobile whether you're skinning uphill or walking a windy ridge. The hood fits over a light beanie but won't swallow your face, and the cuffs are simple hems that slide under gloves without bulk.

Because the insulation relies partly on wool, it continues to insulate even when damp—a meaningful difference if you're caught in drizzle or working up light perspiration. The jacket holds its shape after repeated stuffing, and the zippers are backed with wind flaps to prevent cold spots. It's built for people who move between effort levels and microclimates throughout a day, not for standing still in deep cold or for high-output scrambles that demand maximum breathability.
