What owners single out
In their words
“Needed a proper shell to replace my ancient torrentshell. Which served its purpose and had a great life. Was pleased to find the Triolet which stacks up against other brands that are far more expensive. It’s handled every storm I’ve thrown at it while being comfortable, keeping me dry, and looking good.”
Joel S. · verified purchase · patagonia.ca
“First off, I think this is an amazingly versatile, stout, durable minimalist winter shell whose old-school tried-and-true tech can save you $200 off the latest from competitors. Three-layer Gore-tex tends to get dissed as not ideal for strenuous activity, but it was the standard just 10 years ago. And with its burly face fabric, it will last just as long as any of the updated shells.”
