It's very odd that I live in a place with so much rain and general precipitation and, until recently, didn't own a raincoat. What?! The other day, I was cleaning out my place and discovered a Patagonia gift card with credit still left. So I picked up this little baby:
Patagonia's Torrentshell Jacket
It packs down so nicely! See?
Seems like it'll be perfect for travel, since it's lightweight and stows away easily, which is always a major plus. I plan to bring it camping this spring! (And maybe to rainier climates this summer, hint hint!) Of course, the day after it arrived, it rained in San Francisco, so I was ultra-happy with my purchase. It works great, and the color makes me so happy, even when the weather is really crappy.
