Patagonia Houdini Stash 1/2-Zip Pullover - Women's Black, XS

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"On high-output days when I don't want to carry extra layers, the packability stands out immediately.

It blocks wind surprisingly well for the weight, vents enough to keep sweat in check, and stuffs small enough that there's no excuse not to bring it."Windy ridgelines, cool descents, and early starts call for layers that earn their place, and the Houdini Stash 1/2-Zip Pullover does exactly that.

We bring it along when the forecast feels uncertain and the pace is steady, knowing it will disappear into a pocket until it's needed.

It's the kind of shell that lives in our pack from trailhead to finish, just in case the weather turns.

The lightweight recycled nylon fabric cuts the chill without weighing us down, while well-placed vents keep air moving as effort builds.

The half-zip design makes it easy to regulate temperature on the fly, and the hoodless profile layers cleanly over active baselayers.

When the wind backs off, the Houdini Stash 1/2-Zip Pullover packs down small and waits patiently for the next exposed stretch.
