Warmest of them all
By Rick Willauer
Ranked #606 - Men's Fleece Jackets
November 29, 2009
The R4 fleece is the warmest of all the patagonia regulator fleeces. It also contains a windproof laminate to keep out any gust. This is one of the nicest feature of this jacket, especially if you live somewhere with lots of wind, or will be spending any time where there is lots of wind. The jacket is noticeably more bulky when compared to the lightweight R4 but is not by any means annoying. The jacket is thick enough to wear on its own, but at the same time does not prevent it from being layered. But don't expect to get it under a snug fitting shell. The finish on this jacket is also a little different. The fibers are a little longer and features 'retooled' fleece accents. I personally like the look, but it might not be for everyone.
