Consumer Contract Regulations (CCR)

What are the Consumer Contract Regulations?

Under the "Consumer Contract Regulations, you have the right to cancel an order for goods made at a distance. These rights start from the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

Your right to cancel

Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back.

Your Right to a Refund under CCR

You may get a refund within 14 days of either, the trader getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), whichever is the sooner.

A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

Refunding the cost of delivery

The trader has to refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first place, so if you opted for enhanced service e.g. guaranteed next day, it only has to refund the basic cost.

Exemptions

There are some circumstances where the Consumer Contracts Regulations does not give you a right to cancel. These include CDs, DVDs or software if you've broken the seal on the wrapping, perishable items and tailor-made or personalised items. They also include goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that have been broken or tampered with, e.g. Climbing Equipment and PPE.

My goods are broken

If you feel that your item is defective/broken/faulty and it is still under warranty, please contact our Customer Support team([email protected])with as much information as possible with regards to the fault, including photos if applicable.

We want to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible, the first step for this is reducing our waste. Therefore, please note that we will always offer a professional repair in the first instance; if the product can be repaired.

This may involve your product being sent back to our suppliers or to a professional repair company. Please note that due tovaried procedures, warranty claims and repairs can take between 2 and 4 weeks to be concluded

Patagonia Mens Houdini Rock Jacket Smolder Blue

Season:SS26

Brand:Patagonia

Code:85670-SMDB

What is the Patagonia Men's Houdini Rock Jacket?

The Houdini Rock Jacket is a refined version of Patagonia's classic wind shell, purpose-built for climbers who demand maximum mobility, lightweight protection, and zero distractions on long routes. Designed as part of Patagonia's Free Wall Kit, this alpine-ready shell brings together simplicity and innovation for climbers tackling exposed, technical terrain. It offers wind- and weather-resistant protection in an ultralight, low-bulk package that fits easily into a pocket or harness pouch.

What is it made of?

The Houdini Rock Jacket is constructed from 1.2-oz 100% recycled nylon ripstop, a fabric engineered for climbers who need uncompromising performance from the lightest possible shell. This advanced material strikes the ideal balance between durability, breathability, and compressibility, making it perfectly suited to multipitch climbing, fast alpine routes, and long approaches where every gram counts.

Lightweight Strength and Abrasion Resistance

This 1.2-oz nylon ripstop delivers exceptional toughness for its weight. The micro-ripstop weave reinforces the fabric's structure, preventing small abrasions or punctures from spreading. This provides impressive tear resistance, even when frequently in contact with ropes, gear, or rough granite. Despite its strength, the material remains supple and quiet, allowing for a full range of motion without the stiffness associated with heavier shells.

Recycled and Responsible Construction

The fabric is made entirely from recycled nylon fibres, derived from post-industrial and post-consumer waste. By repurposing existing materials instead of producing new ones, Patagonia reduces the overall demand for virgin resources and lowers the carbon footprint of its manufacturing process.

PFAS-Free Durable Water Repellent (DWR) Finish

To provide weather protection without compromising the planet, the Houdini Rock Jacket utilises a durable water-repellent finish made without intentionally added PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). This coating sheds light rain and wind-driven moisture while maintaining the jacket's breathable, natural feel. Unlike traditional chemical treatments, the PFAS-free DWR ensures responsible performance—you get the same reliable protection without the long-lasting environmental harm.

Fast-Drying and Packable Performance

This fine denier nylon is highly compressible and fast-drying, perfect for variable alpine conditions. The jacket can be stuffed into its own pocket or clipped to a harness when not in use, ready to deploy in seconds if the weather changes. Its smooth surface glides easily over base layers and climbing gear, reducing friction and enhancing comfort during movement.

Fair Trade Certified Production

Every Houdini Rock Jacket is made in a Fair-Trade Certified factory, supporting fair wages and improved working conditions for the people who make it. Patagonia pays an additional premium on every product, which is then allocated directly to worker-led community projects, including childcare, education, and healthcare initiatives.

What are its features?

Climbing-Specific Design

Designed for multipitch and alpine climbing, the Houdini Rock Jacket features articulated patterning for unrestricted movement, even during high reaches and dynamic moves. The extended, slim cut stays secure under a harness, avoiding ride-up or bulk.

Helmet-Compatible Hood

The helmet-compatible hood features a design that allows it to layer comfortably beneath or over a climbing helmet. It provides reliable protection from wind and drizzle without obstructing vision or movement.

Zippered Chest Pocket

The Houdini Rock Jacket includes a low-profile zippered chest pocket, designed for both functionality and packability. Positioned high on the torso for easy access while wearing a harness or backpack, it securely stores small essentials such as a topo map, energy gel, or phone.

Wind- and Weather-Resistant Protection

The recycled nylon ripstop shell, featuring a PFAS-free DWR finish, shields you from gusts and light precipitation while remaining exceptionally breathable—ideal for fast-moving days on exposed routes.

Ultralight and Packable

At just 119.92 g (4.23 oz), the Houdini Rock Jacket packs down to the size of an energy bar, making it easy to stash in a pocket or clip to your harness when not in use.

Free Wall Kit Integration

This jacket is part of the Patagonia Free Wall Kit, a system developed in collaboration with Patagonia's climbing ambassadors to deliver optimal performance on the wall. It pairs perfectly with the Houdini Rock Pants for complete, ultralight weather protection.
