Patagonia R1 Fleece Pullover - Men's - 2009 BCS

great piece for fall n winter i have black grey n brown probally buy blue next.very sofe very warm look great wth ur jeans n u can even get dressy wth it its something u wear over n over

This is one of my all time favorite pieces of clothing. It can be used is such a wide variety of situations, cold weather as a layer, or cool spring/fall as an outer layer. The checked fabric keeps the right amount of heat in when it's needed, but breathes well when its warmer. If you buy one, make sure you buy a second in another color because you'll love it that much.

I love it!! Warm, thin, love the chest pocket. I wear all the time at work and play....I have few of them. I live in Colorado and it is the perfect weight for cool days and a perfect mid weight layer under a shell!

This is my go to layer for high-speed winter pursuits. Works great as a light fleece for the summer/shoulder seasons as well, and is super compressible to boot. Good for backpacking, good for wearing to class...All in all an extremely versatile and comfortable layer. If you're looking for sheer warmth, go up a weight or two, but for all around performance and breathability this piece is a good choice.

This fleece is magic. I wear it alone and manage to stay warm on some pretty frigid trail runs. Worn over some capilene and under a shell skiing in 30 degrees is pretty comfortable. Plus, the waffle pattern and fabric combination is amazing. I've been poured on while simultaneously running and sweating, but this wicks like you wouldn't imagine and leaves me feeling nice. Running, skiing, backpacking, climbing, you name it, this piece works great. The smooth outer facing means layers slide over it easily. It's so light, works great as a base or mid-layer (even standalone outerlayer), and is great insulation for most situations!

well after buyin 1 now i own in every color.great under a shell and amazing alone.ive worn in the 4os and was fine.this looks great wth jeans and can even b worn in the office heaven 4bid lol.

This is probably one of my all time favorite pieces of clothing. It is useful for a wide variety of situations. Works great under a softshell, or on its own on a chilly autumn day. The fit of the R1 is great. I'm 145 and 5'11 and the medium fit me perfectly.

This fleece does everything it should, keeps you warm and wicks moisture to help keep you dry. You won't regret buying one... or several.

If you only own one piece of outdoor gear, this should be it. I wear mine for everything - from warming up in a chilly office to skiing to mountaineering to running. It's almost magic, the perfect layer.

this is a great all around fleece. It is always in my layering set up. great for hiking. i like how it clings to your body, it also dosen't bunch up above ur harness when your climbing

The R1 provides the lowest level of insulation through out Patagonia's Regulator series of fleeces. I have found though that this is a versatile piece that can stand alone on cool summer nights or brisk early fall days. When the temps dip a little lower it functions as a great insulation layer under a shell or rain jacket for high movement activities, but would not be quit warm enough for low exertion sports in cold weather, such as winter fishing. Overall a great product with many different uses.

Essentially my favourite mid-layer for all seasons use, although I own the Flash version. which is pretty much identical. This is light and stretchy enough for climbing, biking, or just hiking around the trail. It packs down small for keeping in your pack. The pocket is pretty useful for most things, like an iPod, or camera. But it is also warm enough to ski in, not binding your movements, and not overheating you on the hike up. The checkered pattern of the Regulator fleece is really nice, it reduces the weight and bulk, while keeping you warm and mobile. The only thing that this fleece is not good for is wind, just cuts right through the fabric and into you. The Flash has nice stretch panels that make it more useful for most applications, but this is good for full coverage fleece. Definitely love the offset zipper of the Flash better than a straight one, because anyone who has ever got a zipper frozen to their lip knows, offset is a nice feature for no extra weight.
For information purposes, I am 6'1-2", and around 200#, and the large in Patagonia fleece fits me perfect, good enough for 2 light layers underneath, but not bulky at all.

The temperature range of this shirt is amazing. It breathes so well when I'm sweating and keeps my warm when its getting chilly. Sharpest looking fleece out there as well.

I have now owned 3 of these pullovers and wear one most days. (Although I now wear the Better Sweater Pullover during the schoolweek or at home.) I would highly recommend this fleece for almost any activity from hiking/backpacking to climbing. It is highly breathable and works well as a light midlayer. It is also surprisingly warm under a shell. Possibly my favorite piece of clothing I own.

Well, what can I say..another fine piece of gear from Patagonia. I enjoy how you can wear it as a warming layer that breathes while you perspire! I'm the kind of person who sweats when its 20 degrees out when I'm ascending a peak and taxing myself. I def. enjoy the grid like pattern and the chest pocket, great piece of gear! I recommend it, but the Patagonia price always kicks you in the ass!

6'2" 210 lbs and the XL fits great. This is my go to fleece and i have several of them. The inner 'waffle' pattern keeps me warm. The long front zipper dumps that heat. The body length and sleeve length are great. Great as a baselayer or by itself for strenous activities in cold weather. Also works well with the patagonia puffy vest over top.

I am 6'4" and wear an XL in patagonia. Great top, I have the hooded version but the same basics apply. It can be worn against the skin or over a capilene. Smooth outer surface makes adding a layer on top of it easier because it does not cling as much as a normal fleece. Wish I had had this piece of gear on my NOLS trip. One of the most versatile layers I have seen.

Really nice jacket, the downside is the sizing. I am 6ft 3 inches 180# and neither the large nor extra large fit adequately. The large is too short and the X large is barely long enough and way too wide for someone who is slender. Very warm and nice jacket tho for anybody who isn't a beanpole

this is the best layering piece I've ever owned! I wear this top at least 3 to 5 times a week for about 8 months. It is my go to piece for skiing, fishing, climbing, whatever.

I wear this as a mid-layer over a lightweight merino wool top and it does an awesome job of temp regulation. I’ve worn it skiing in temp ranges from single digits to upper 30’s and felt comfy the whole time. The weight was much lighter than I expected, which was nice surprise since I was not sure if this would be too bulky as a mid-layer. The size is pretty true. I picked up a large and an extra-large to see where the best fit would be. I’m 6’2, 220 and the large was okay in the arm length, but tight across the chest and a little short in overall length. The extra-large is on par with other XL’s from Patagonia. Great layer all around.

Super breathable, super stretchy, and super comfy. It has a long cut for snow-beating security, and just great fit for us lanky gents. On top of that, Patagonia is one of the most customer-friendly businesses around; if at any time you decide you don't like your product, you can return it no questions asked. My advice? Buy two: one to sweat in and get dirty, and the other for swanky around town wear. Also, bonus for getting rid of the offset zipper, which I didn't like so much.

You name the piece of Patagonia clothing that has been made and I have owned it. In some cases owned a bunch of a single design. THIS IS THE BEST I have ever worn. Most comfortable and most warmth for the weight. I only own one and waiting for it to be washed takes all my patience

Quality fleece. Great for cool temperatures or winter runs.

I consider this my workhorse layer. It comes with me during day hikes in the summer, aggressive ski days in the winter, and slogs through the winter snow in the adirondacks. There is nothing the R1 fleece can't do.

Great weight for those days when there's a nip in the air. Light, easy to move in. I wear it to play golf on those early fall mornings.

I live in my r1 in cooler weather. I've dragged it halfway around the world, worn it to scrape up gut wrenching offwidths, and when it was new i even wore it to the first date i had in 5 years. It's still going strong but it will die someday and then i will just recycle it. Yeah patagonia!

Great piece. Perfect for cold weather stand alone over a polypro T-shirt or over a capilene 4 for the really frigid days. The length of it is great as well especially if you wearing pants with suspenders.
