What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"This is the pullover I reach for when I need warmth without bulk. It layers well under a shell for hikes, but still looks sharp enough for a coffee date. Super soft inside, tough enough for everyday wear, and that zippered chest pocket? Huge win."When we need something cozy enough for the trail but polished enough for town, the Better Sweater 1/2-Zip Pullover always comes through. Patagonia blends sweater-knit style with the warmth and performance of fleece, giving us a go-to layer that works just as well at the office as it does under a puffy on cold morning hikes. The Better Sweater’s soft fleece interior feels great next to skin or layered over a tee, while the smooth-knit face gives it a refined, structured look. With a zippered chest pocket for securing essentials and a half-zip design for quick ventilation, it’s built for comfort and utility. Plus, it’s made with 100% recycled polyester and dyed through a low-impact process—so we can feel as good about how it's made as how it fits.
