The Women's Torrentshell 3L is Patagonia's most-relied-on women's rain jacket — the piece that earns its place in a closet by being there every time the forecast turns. Simple, unpretentious construction backed by Patagonia's H2No® Performance Standard for waterproof/breathable performance you can verify, not just trust.
Built from a 3-layer shell: 3.5-oz 50-denier ECONYL® 100% recycled nylon ripstop face, polycarbonate PU membrane with 13% biobased content, tricot backer, and a DWR finish. Fabric, membrane, and DWR are all made without intentionally added PFAS.
Standout features:
- 3-layer H2No® shell — sustained rain protection with breathability for active use
- Two-way-adjustable hood — laminated visor rolls down and stows
- Microfleece-lined neck — next-to-skin comfort against the membrane
- Center-front zipper — external and internal storm flaps plus a chin zipper garage
- Pit zips with welted storm flaps — vent on high-output movement without losing weather protection
- Self-stuffs into handwarmer pocket — with a carabiner clip-in loop for pack carry
Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory in Vietnam, meaning the people who built it earned a premium for their labor. Fabric is bluesign® approved.
Right pick for women who want one serious rain jacket that handles real weather without compromising on weight or breathability — daily commutes, weekend hikes, travel days, and the unpredictable shoulder seasons where rain is a planning constant.
