Ranked #465 - Men's Fleece Jackets

I'm a HUGE fan of Patagonia. 5'10', 185lbs, chest 42in; however, medium fits me perfectly. It is very light (I wouldn't say ultralight) and yet it maintains your core-warmth well. The inner "grid" system makes this fleece jacket the most versatile; definitely works great not only as a baselayer but also as an insulating layer. R1, obviously, isn't warmer than the rest of the Regulator series jackets, but it definitely adds warmth when layered up. I have mine in alpha green, my favorite color, and it looks awesome! I've been wearing mine for the recent hiking trips, and I can say now it is one of my most essential gears. I recommend you try it.
