Patagonia Simple Synchilla Fleece Jacket - Men's

Item #PAT2581 | 1 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Hmmm........not much for the money

By Ranked #2459 - Men's Fleece Jackets December 15, 2008

The jacket does not resist the wind as stated....I also purchased a Helly Hansen Fleece.....much cheaper and better wind blocking capabilities..........I bought the jacket for use while STEELHEAD fishing.......weather is usually cold and windy....although layered properly....the wind was coming right on in.........just my opinion.....I wore a Patagonia rain jacket over the top and problem solved.....stayed warm and the rain jacket kept the wind out.......not the fleece

well duh, if you want a wind stopping fleece look somewhere else, this is more of a casual piece. Don't complain about something that it wasn't made to do, like wind protection, water or anything other than pure warmth.
