Why We Like The Patagonia R1 Lite Yulex Long-Sleeve Top
Patagonia is a known problem-solver, and with the R1 Lite Yulex Top, they've found a sustainable way to get us out into the summer surf with a smile on our face and a happy heart. This 1.5-millimeter wetsuit top is a great addition for cutting the chill of breezy conditions and early morning surf. It's constructed with Yulex natural rubber for high-performance capabilities and added warmth but without the petroleum and harmful chemicals required for neoprene production. Patagonia claims Yulex natural rubber reduces their wetsuit CO2 emissions by a whopping 80% over standard neoprene-based wetsuits. And this season Patagonia has updated the construction to be stretchier, lighter, and more comfortable than before.

Absolutely love this jacket! Historically I get shivering cold in warm water (70-76 degree temp waters) and finally decided it was time to find a jacket because a half mil shirt wasn't helping enough. So I bought this jacket prior to our latest trip and it did the trick! We snorkeled and dove all throughout the week and not once was I uncomfortable cold. This jacket is longer than a couple of the others I had tried which I liked because I felt it kept more body warmed water around me. It's also not restrictive and easy to get on dry and pull off after use. One thing I do recommend before buying this jacket is to look up the size chart on Patagonia. It varies from the one Backcountry supplied and I used Patagonia's chart to purchase my correct size.
