Patagonia R1 Air Women's Zip Neck

Slip the Patagonia R1 Air Women's Zip Neck over your baselayer and you have added breathable warmth without committing to a full jacket. This pullover midlayer uses an airy technical fleece that insulates lightly and vents fast, with a zip neck to fine-tune your temperature.

Why we like it:

The pullover cut keeps things simple and low-bulk, sliding easily under a shell with no extra front zipper to bunch.

Features and Functions:

The same airy fabric appears here, a 5.7 ounce recycled polyester jacquard fleece knit with hollow-core yarns, an open, lofted knit that holds warmth in its thicker zones and breathes through its lighter ones. A quarter-length neck zip vents heat on demand, the stretchy body moves with you, and it comes together in a Fair Trade Certified facility.

Fit and Sizing:

It fits close and trim for layering, with stretch to spare, and lands true to size.

Bottom Line:

This is the pick for anyone who wants a minimal, breathable layer for touring and cold aerobic days. Best for women who prefer a pullover over a full zip.
