The R2 TechFace Fleece Jacket is a rugged update on Patagonia's performance-oriented, midweight R2 Fleece, and we are big fans. The original R2 offered stretch and moisture management to dry quickly when you're sweating on a rigorous alpine climb. So Patagonia updated this version with a TechFace exterior that's highly water- and wind-resistance to shed light snowfall on steep skintracks when you're backcountry touring.
