Cotopaxi Men's Pacaya 2.0 Insulated Hooded Jacket

Cotopaxi Pacaya 2.0 Men's Insulated Hooded Jacket

A perfectly calibrated active insulated jacket built for the in-between days when you're generating heat but still need warmth. The men's Pacaya 2.0's recycled wool-blend Imbotex insulation regulates temperature on the move without overheating, while stretch side panels and a packable design make it as at home under a shell on a ski tour as it is on a brisk approach hike or a cold morning run.

Why We Carry It
It's the active insulated jacket we recommend for skiers and hikers who want a breathable, movement-friendly midlayer that regulates heat on high-output days without becoming a liability when the effort picks up.

Highlights

• Imbotex Millefiori wool-blend insulation A 40% recycled wool and 60% recycled low-melting polyester insulation at 60gsm that naturally regulates body temperature during active use. Wool's inherent temperature-regulating properties make this insulation genuinely different from standard synthetic fills that trap heat on high-output efforts.
• 100% recycled nylon shell at 38gsm with PFAS-free DWR A lightweight, weather-resistant outer shell made entirely from recycled content with a C0 DWR finish that sheds light moisture without the environmental concerns of traditional fluorinated treatments.
• Stretch side panels through sleeve in 97% recycled polyester and spandex A hybrid construction that places breathable, four-way stretch panels at the side seams and through the sleeves for unrestricted movement and improved ventilation on active pursuits without compromising the insulated warmth of the main body panels.
• Made without intentionally added PFAS chemicals A clean material standard across shell and DWR treatment for a jacket that performs without the environmental and health concerns of traditional fluorinated chemicals.
• Packs into its own interior chest pocket A compact, self-contained stuff sack for easy pack storage and travel without a separate stuff sack to lose. Deploy it when the temperature drops and stow it when the effort picks up.
• Adjustable hood and hem Seal in warmth at both ends for variable conditions and changing effort levels without a fixed hood geometry that doesn't adapt to layering needs.
• Two zippered hand pockets plus interior chest pocket Organized, secure storage for essentials on ski tours, approach hikes, and everyday active use.
• Regular fit for layering A fit that works as a standalone midlayer or under a waterproof shell on stormy days without bunching or restricting movement under a second layer.

Best For

Men who ski, hike, and spend active time outside in variable conditions who want a breathable, temperature-regulating active insulated jacket for high-output days when standard insulation traps too much heat and a fleece alone isn't warm enough. A strong midlayer for ski touring approaches, active hiking, and any cold weather pursuit where effort levels change throughout the day.
