Before we talk about the life-affirming array of discounted gear available via the Patagonia sale right now, let’s talk about its soul-deadening counterpart: Amazon Prime Day. Discussing one before the other in this context sort of feels like a cart-before-the-horse situation, but the annoying reality of Prime Day—or, as the sad henchman in Seattle insist on calling it, ‘Prime Big Deal Days’—is that it tends to suck up all the oxygen in the room, especially when competing sales are involved.
For example, if you were busy blitzing through your Amazon wish list for the last 24 hours or so, there’s a high probability that you missed the insane amount of Patagonia on sale across the wide expanse of the internet.
And it’s not simply past-season goods in the bargain bin, either—though you’ll probably be rocking Baggies long into December this year, if the current weather is any indication. The Patagonia sale boasts genuinely respectable deals on chill-busting outerwear, toasty-as-hell shirts, and plenty more of what the brand does best, all waiting for a tracking number with your name on it to claim.
Down a proper winter coat? Desperate for low-profile insulation? Just want to refresh your light jacket rotation? Whatever you’re looking for, chances are high it’s here—and for a lot less cash than usual. Keep scrolling to see what we’re buying.

Our Favorite Buys From the Patagonia Sale
Patagonia Jacket and Coat Deals
Patagonia Baggies might steal the show in the summer, but the rest of the brand’s catalog sounds even nicer come fall. The puffers are warm but not, like, overwhelmingly so; the fleeces are legendary for every reason that fleeces could attain the status, and the shell layers are as impermeable as any four times their price. It’s hard to beat Patagonia’s outerwear not on sale—on sale, the whole assortment turns into the ‘72 Dolphins.
Patagonia Shirt Deals
If you’re unfamiliar with Patagonia’s flannel game, it’s time to familiarize yourself. Not only are they typically cozy, at the moment, they’re atypically discounted south of $75. Haven’t messed around with the brand’s mid-layers, either? You should—they’ll keep you impossibly warm without messing up your mobility, and also happen to look great solo. Looking for a sweater that can handle a hike (or 50)? Patagonia’s begin with that expectation and then work outwards from there.
Patagonia Pants and Shorts Deals
On one hand, signing a main act as popular as the Baggies is a good thing: crafting shorts with near-universal appeal was almost impossible before the Baggies made their comeback. On the other hand, though, those beloved nylon shorts tend to overshadow the rest of Patagonia’s catalog, including the corduroy utility shorts on sale right now.
Patagonia Gear and Accessory Deals
My love for the Black Hole line is canon—I’ve accidentally run it over multiple times, and if it could talk I’m not sure any of those would even make it into its top-five most harrowing moments. Any chance you have to buy one at a discount is worth it. The savings aren’t limited to the Black Hole line, though. The Terravia 24L Tote Pack is the kind of bag your current tote lives in perpetual fear of, and the Crag Pack is one of the burlier riffs on the entire market. Oh, and if you’re looking for an unfussy beanie, you can snag one that’s been field-tested in the worst conditions imaginable for under $40.
