Since they moved to a more boxy cut a few years ago and cut material quality I've moved more towards the deadbird side of things.

That being said,

the R1 hoody is unparalleled for all climbing. I love it and when mine gives up the ghost, damn right I'll get another.

Knifeblade pullover. Apparently the lamination doesn't hold up though and it is already discontinued. I liked it enough to buy a spare!

Apparently Colin Haley liked the pants a lot. And his nightmare is gear he likes being discontinued. Bummer.

They made a Patrol Jacket a few years back that was probably my fav... not NSP. They're Cardon Shoe (leather moc) has got to be one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn...

Backcountry and alpine guide pants, the older styles.

I buy em used because apparently the fit changed from a slim fit to a gangsta cut over the years.

Mid 90's Guide Pant. Still beating on them and they are still taking the abuse.

Piton hybrid hooded jacket, an awesome piece, my go to. North wall pants are a very close second. But limited use in so cal. Great design, stretch and breathability.

+1,000! Or +3 technically, since that's the number I've owned in the last 10 years. There have been times when I literally have lived in them while living on the road. Even now that the dirtbag years are over, the R1 comes with on absolutely every mountain adventure, summer or winter.

R1, Nano Puff, Houdini. What else does a CA climber need?

Plus this Surf Cap, which they discontinued years ago, and which I'd buy in a heartbeat if I could

Patagonia Surf Cap - if you own one, please sell it to me!

Adze jacket. It's the only softshell I've found with long enough arms for me. The Guide jacket came close, but the Adze is better.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
