"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""The Retro Pile Fleece Jacket is the layer I grab when I want serious coziness without the bulk of a heavy jacket. The double-sided shearling fleece is genuinely plush and warm for how light the jacket feels in the hand, the raglan sleeves move naturally under a pack or shell, and the zip-through stand-up collar traps heat right where you need it most on cold mornings. It layers well under a hardshell when the wind picks up.""Some jackets earn their place by being the one you always reach for first. The Patagonia Retro Pile Fleece Jacket is exactly that, built from Polartec double-sided shearling fleece that delivers plush, easy-wearing warmth in a full-zip silhouette that works just as well over a tee as it does under a shell. The retro aesthetic feels considered rather than nostalgic, and the warmth it delivers punches well above the weight of the jacket in your hand. Raglan sleeves move naturally through any activity and sit comfortably under pack straps on longer days out, while flat-seam construction keeps the fit smooth and the bulk low. A zip-through stand-up collar seals in heat at the neck, elastic trim at the cuffs and hem keeps drafts out without restricting movement, and three zippered pockets handle everything from trail snacks to a phone and a card."
