Patagonia R3 Jacket
By Jaima Gill

I recently bought this fleece to replace my Patagonia retro x jacket that I misplaced at a restaurant a while back. I liked the thicker fleece of the Retro, but after wearing this for 3 days straight, I have to say I'm pretty happy with it. I wore it around town, snowboarding and to work. It has a fitted silhouette which makes it an ideal layering piece (wore it under a shell snowboarding). It is also much warmer than I anticipated (I ended up ditching the shell after a couple runs and was fine with just the jacket and an Icebreaker baselayer). It is very breathable and kept me warm and dry even though I was hiking back up the sledding hill after every run. It definitely earned it's stars for fit/looks, soft feel, and performance.
