Recycled-polyester knit fleece that transitions effortlessly from the office to the trail as a standalone or midlayer

The Patagonia Better Sweater Fleece Jacket is equally at home over a flannel on a weekend errand run as it is under a hardshell when the temperature drops on a hike. The raglan sleeves and flat-seam construction mean it moves with us rather than binding at the shoulders, so the jacket disappears into the layering system instead of fighting it.


What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I reach for this one on cold mornings before I've decided what the day is. It works over a base layer on the trail and under a shell in the mountains without adding bulk."


Details

  • Zip-up fleece for everyday wear, hiking, and layering under a shell
  • Midweight fleece works standalone or as a midlayer
  • Raglan sleeves and flat-seam construction layer cleanly under a pack or jacket
  • Two zippered handwarmers and a secure vertical chest pocket
  • Regular fit works over a base layer without restricting movement
  • Low-impact dye process reduces environmental footprint
  • Item #PAT02Y3
