 Now on the Patagonia website are some of the new spring styles.  Among the items is the Ultralight Down Shirt--a new class of down shirt.  At $250 it's 25% more expensive than the Down Sweater Jacket which seems a bit odd to me, but it seems destined to become a Patagonia classic.  The aesthetic is kind of a Spiderman/The Thing look--very unique in that great Patagonia-form-follows-function way and, I'm guessing, very warm. Looking forward to seeing one in person soon.
