R2 Rocks!
By Steph Parke
March 3, 2008
I bought the R2 vest to replace a no-name fleece vest I've been wearing and loving for almost 10 years, so the R2 had a lot to live up to, and so far, I'm loving it. The fleece is really lightweight and compact, so I can wear it under other layers with no bunching. The R2 has a close fit but is comfortable and not restricting at all over a couple of thin layers. The fleece is super soft, doesn't seem to pill, and the pockets are deep and big, but have a very low profile. I'm planning on 10+ happy years out of my R2 vest.
