Patagonia Lightweight R4 Jacket - Men's
Better than North Face

Ranked #81 - Men's Fleece Jackets
October 25, 2008
I wore my buddy's similar North Face jacket before buying this and found it comfortable, warm, and windproof. But after receiving mine and comparing the two, this Patagonia is by far superior. It's lighter, warmer, and a big reason in why I bought mine is that you don't see a dozen of them in a day like the North Face. Forget what reviews say about the jackets running large - I downsized to a medium and the jacket was too small. I'm 6'1" 170 and needed to send it back for a large that now fits awesome. Strongly recommended and buy with confidence from this site!
