“Patagonia Bunting garments are the most popular and most stylish in our pile clothing line. Bunting fabric is 100% polyester that is brushed on both sides and feels soft and comfortable against your skin. The main difference between our conventional pile clothing and bunting is in how they breathe. Bunting is less porous than pile which makes it more windproof, but the more windproof a garment is the more difficult it is to ventilate. While pile allows excess heat to escape through its less dense fabric, bunting doesn’t allow precise temperature regulation as easily. Pile is advantageous for strenuous sports in nasty conditions, but bunting comes into its own for less active sports in milder climates, like rafting, cross country skiing and beachcombing on cold days. Bunting garments are a perfect example of our effort to create functional, good-looking clothing that is built to last… This jacket is hip length and features a full length zipper up through the top of the collar. It has slanted zip front pockets for easy access and nylon ribbed cuffs and waistband” (Great Pacific Iron Works, 1982).
Please carefully review product descriptions, photos, and measurements before purchasing to ensure a proper fit and satisfaction. Please note that items for sale are vintage/pre-owned in nature, with most being previously worn. Each garment is carefully inspected during the listing process for imperfections/flaws which are then photographed and/or noted in the item's description. See the “Condition Ratings” tab for more information.
Please refer to the measurements included in the description to ensure a proper fit, as vintage sizing frequently differs slightly from modern sizing. Sizes listed in the product title are based on the “best fits a” size rather than the tag size. To ensure a proper fit, we strongly recommend comparing the provided measurements to a similar garment of your own that fits to your liking. For more information, visit the “How to Measure” tab.
