Unpacked my several year old Patagonia Nano-Puff vest I'd sent into their shop for repairs. They did a great job and I’ll be wearing it I think another several years until the synthetic insulation finally gives up the ghost (in which case I’ll send it in to their recycling operation). Besides the basic repair, there were some cosmetic changes they did gratis too. Great job!

I will send it for a permanent fix once the weather gets warmer here. Repairs are 8 weeks out here. DR

Inspiration to get the zipper on an older Patagonia vest I’d sort of forgotten about fixed next time I’m in the neighborhood. I do like SoHo in the spring.
