PATAGONIA MEN'S CAPILENE® COOL DAILY SHIRT CLOUD CRAG | TECHNICAL T-SHIRT

THE ALPINIST'S TECHNICAL T-SHIRT: PATAGONIA CAPILENE® COOL DAILY SHIRT CLOUD CRAG

There are garments that tell a story before you even put them on. The Patagonia Men's Capilene® Cool Daily Shirt Cloud Crag features the Fitz Roy massif as seen from the clouds on the back, an original print by artist Vernan Kee that turns this technical t-shirt into an object with a mountain soul. But the Cloud Crag isn't just about aesthetics: it is the same Capilene® Cool Daily technology that has accompanied climbers, hikers, and alpinists on their most demanding routes for decades, now in 128 grams of fabric that manages heat, neutralizes odors, and dries in minutes.

THE FITZ ROY ON YOUR BACK: THE STORY OF THE CLOUD CRAG PRINT

Cloud Crag literally means "rocky wall among clouds" — a name that perfectly captures the nature of the Fitz Roy massif, one of Patagonia’s visual icons since the brand's founding. Artist Vernan Kee has recreated that aerial view of the Fitz Roy emerging above the cloud layer, a viewpoint known only to those who have been at high altitudes. It is a print that speaks directly to those who move through the mountains: climbers, alpinists, long-distance hikers, and high-altitude trail runners.

And the t-shirt that supports it lives up to the print: the Capilene® Cool Daily is Patagonia's go-to technical t-shirt for high-exertion activities in warm, active conditions, designed to keep you dry, cool, and odor-free during long days when you can't — or don't want to — think about your clothing.

TECHNICAL FEATURES

• Fabric: 125 g/m² 50% recycled polyester jersey — lightweight, silky to the touch, and stretchy for maximum freedom of movement on any terrain
• Ultra-fast drying: Finish that actively wicks moisture; the fabric evacuates sweat instantly and dries in minutes, both during activity and after a swim
• HeiQ® Mint odor control: Plant-based treatment that neutralizes the microorganisms that cause bad odors; it regenerates with every wash, allowing the t-shirt to be worn for several days in a row without any issues
• Set-in sleeves: Construction with integrated sleeves that maximizes shoulder mobility and eliminates seams in areas of friction with harnesses, backpacks, or rope straps
• Minimalist seams: Stitches and seams reduced to a minimum to eliminate chafing during prolonged contact with the skin during climbing days or multiday trekking
• Regular fit: Balanced fit, neither too tight nor too loose, designed to move freely and combine with base layers in colder conditions
• Cloud Crag print: Original art by Vernan Kee, showing the Fitz Roy massif as seen from the clouds, screen-printed on the back
• Weight: 128 g
• bluesign® certification: Fabric produced with the highest standards of chemical safety and resource efficiency
• Fair Trade™ certification: Made in Indonesia in a Fair Trade Certified factory
• Care instructions: Machine wash with warm water · Do not use bleach or fabric softener · Tumble dry low · Iron at low temperature

EXPERT ADVICE

“The Capilene® Cool Daily Cloud Crag is our recommendation whenever someone asks us for a technical t-shirt for the mountains. Not for the gym, not for running around town: for being on the rock, on the trail, and at base camp. The HeiQ® Mint odor control really works — on multiday trips where the backpack has no room for extra clothes, this t-shirt stays fresh much longer than you would expect. And the print of the Fitz Roy among clouds needs no introduction: if you know where it comes from, you know what it means. A classic that is also technical.”

PATAGONIA WARRANTY — "WE ARE IN BUSINESS TO SAVE OUR HOME PLANET"

Patagonia is not just a technical clothing brand. Founded in 1973 by climber and activist Yvon Chouinard, it is today one of the world's most committed companies regarding sustainability. A winner of the UN Champion of the Earth award in the Entrepreneurial Vision category, it has donated at least 1% of its annual sales to the preservation and restoration of the natural environment since 1986. In 2022, its founder transferred ownership of the company to a trust and a non-profit organization, with the goal that all profits are used to fight climate change.

The Capilene® Cool Daily Shirt Cloud Crag reflects this philosophy: 50% recycled polyester fabric with bluesign® certification, made in a Fair Trade™ Certified factory in Indonesia, featuring original art that pays tribute to one of the most iconic and protected landscapes on the planet. Patagonia's Worn Wear program also allows you to repair or renew your garment when you need to. When you buy Patagonia, you aren't just equipping your adventure; you are funding the planet’s.

HOW TO USE AND CARE FOR IT

Recommended uses: rock climbing, mountain hiking, alpinism, multiday trekking, trail running, via ferrata, long approaches with a backpack, or as a base layer on cool days under a fleece. Its seamless fabric in friction areas makes it especially suitable for use with a harness or a heavy backpack during long days.

Care:

• Machine wash with warm water (30 °C)
• Do not use bleach or fabric softener (fabric softener clogs fibers and reduces moisture wicking)
• Tumble dry at low temperature
• Iron at low temperature if necessary
• Do not dry clean
