Received this as a gift and love it. It's great during the cooler fall months and is light enough to layer under a coat on much colder days in the winter.
This was to upgrade my last micropuff from 2010 - still going strong btw. I ended up getting a medium bc they were out of smalls. Fits well with lots of layers but probably should have stuck with a small (I'm 5'5 135 lbs) but really wanted red (finally a deep, rich color!!!). The odd thing is that the collar/hood is super tight and uncomf... Read Moreortable when zipped up all the way without the hood on - I have to fold it over to not feel like I'm choking. Not sure if it is just the one I got or a new cut, but not comfy or functional. :-/ I wish I could say maybe to recommend to a friend (instead of yes or no) as it is a great weight and insulation.

Roomy at last!
I have the vest in a
Large which I love but it is tight across the bust. The XXL allows me freedom of movement and space to layer. I may never take it off until Summer.
A purchase I had to think about for a while. It is an expensive investment, but later when I received it, it feels like a timeless one. I am +size and the measurements were exactly as described. I only had the sleeves adjusted by a tailor. It weighs nothing, put it in a small bag in your backpack and you always have that extra layer of protection a... Read Moregainst the cold
Super light and comfortable. Very warm and protects you from the wind. Hood fits snugly and keeps you warm. I love this product. Patagonia has the best service!!!!
I was so excited about getting the micro puff because of its characteristics. None of the colors for this fall excited me at all I personally think are awful and black is too boring for me, so I decided to go with the wax red. The color itself was better in person than I was expected, it wasnt too bad so I was like ok this looks fine but the fit of... Read More the jacket is definitely not for me. I kind of think Im between sizes. I ordered size L so I had room for layering. And it fit ok in the waist and hips (I found it long but it didn't bother me) however, the shoulders and back were WAY TOO BAGGY! It made me look so big. Also, the Hood seemed super small, it was hard to put it on when zipped up. I debated about keeping it but I honestly I hated how it made me look. I read reviews from other years and they all said it fit too tight in the arms and shoulders, well if Patagonia tried to fix the problem I want to say that you all added too much extra room in that area. It fits awful! Im 5'6 and weight about 166lb. Im unsure if the jacket with no hood would fit any better in the shoulder area, but I just don't want to go through the hassle of ordering and then having to return it. :(
Thank you for sharing this feedback, Alexa. We're sorry to hear this jacket didn't fit you well, and happy to see you're returning something that wasn't going to make you happy; we hope the new jacket works better for you, but if it doesn't, please let us know and we will help you with a return or exchange.

Great jacket
This jacket is so comfortable and easy to wear. It travels so well and can be rolled up. It's a perfect autumn cover and wi th a sweater goes well into Winter. Love everything about it .
Great quality, packs up small can use when super cold under my other jackets or as a single layer like o win autumn, And love buying from this brand as they now give back to an environmental no profit NGO!!! AMAZING
I had the old Micro Puff, purchased in 2018 and it was great. Purchased the new one recently and I like it but is noticeably heavier than the old one. In fact I really can't tell much difference between it and the Nano Puff which I also have. (The hood on the Micro is smaller and it has inside drop pockets). Still I wear both, the Nano for mor...
