Patagonia R1® Fleece Vest

The R1® Vest is your go-to layer for staying warm without overheating on fast-paced mountain days. Designed for active outdoor enthusiasts, this hybrid vest combines durable, stretchy Polartec® Power Grid® fabric with Capilene® Thermal Weight panels to reduce bulk while maintaining exceptional breathability. HeiQ® Pure odor control keeps things fresh, no matter how hard you push.

Ideal for:

• Trail running
• Layering
• Climbing

Strategically placed insulation provides warmth where you need it most—around the core and shoulders—while the breathable back and underarm panels efficiently vent excess heat. A slim fit, low-bulk hem, and chafe-free shoulder seams ensure all-day comfort, whether you're wearing it under a shell or over a baselayer. The zippered chest pocket offers secure storage without adding weight.

Perfect for alpine climbing, ski touring, or cool-weather trail running, this Fair Trade Certified™ vest is built for movement and adventure. Pack it, layer it, and keep exploring.
