Built for riders who chase storm cycles deep into the backcountry, the PowSlayer is Patagonia’s top-end shell for uncompromising weather protection. It uses a lightweight, packable, and highly durable 3-layer GORE-TEX ePE Pro fabric made from 100% recycled nylon, delivering waterproof, windproof, and breathable performance without extra bulk.
The design is stripped down to what matters most: a two-way adjustable helmet-compatible hood with hidden stretch panels, watertight Vislon® zippers, quick-dump pit zips, and a low-profile powder gasket that seals tight when you need it and disappears when you don’t. Storage is dialed for long tours with oversized bellowed chest pockets that fit skins, plus handwarmer, arm, and internal stash pockets for smaller essentials.
Every detail is tuned for backcountry efficiency—from cuffs that secure cleanly over or under gloves to a concealed RECCO® reflector for added searchability. Fair Trade Certified™ sewing ensures the people who built it earned a premium for their work, and all fabrics are free of intentionally added PFAS and bluesign® approved.
At just 630 g, the PowSlayer delivers maximum storm protection in a minimalist package, making it the go-to shell for ski mountaineers, splitboarders, and anyone who demands full trust in their gear when conditions turn ugly.
