Patagonia Women's R2 Vest

Patagonia Women's R2 Vest

As every mountain minimalist knows, little can match the weight-to-redemption value of high-loft core warmth. And now it's even better, because Patagonia's newly refined Women's R2 Vest (Polartec Thermal Pro) is warmer, with improved stretch and a softer hand while being significantly more compressible, breathable and lighter. The short-sheared but high-loft polyester face has a smoother appearance and insulates especially well underneath a shell; its directional knit wicks superbly, speeding dry times. Super-breathable and warm stretch panels (Polartec Power Stretch) along the sides allow for a closer, more mobile fit. With a softly lined inner collar and chin flap for skin comfort, offset shoulder yokes to stay clear of pack straps, and zippered handwarmer pockets. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

• Fabric: Body: 6.1-oz Polartec® Thermal Pro® 98% polyester (63% recycled)/2% spandex. Side panels: 6.6-oz Polartec® Power Stretch® 88% polyester (60% recycled)/12% spandex. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program
• Exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, compressible and breathable, with improved stretch

• Polartec® Power Stretch® fabric panels under the arms allow for a close fit, improved motion and increased durability in high-wear areas
• Pockets: two zippered handwarmers
• Weight: 232 g (8.2 oz)

Great inbetween layer
Warm, but not too warm. Great for spring hikes. Very comfortable. My one complaint is it bunches a bit in the back.
