Synchilla Snap-T Fleece Pullover

The Patagonia Men's Synchilla Snap-T Fleece Pullover is about as classic as a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And like a solid PB&J, the Snap-T is designed to withstand just about anything and everything you throw at it—including jelly from the sandwich itself. This classic fleece goes back to the first days of Patagonia (think 1985) so you know it's built to last. Additionally, the heavyweight fleece offers steadfast warmth, while the four-snap placket easily unsnaps, so you're able to cool off quickly should the temperatures begin to rise. Y-Joint sleeves provide unimpeded mobility in the shoulders and arms, and the chest pocket keeps small necessities secure and close at hand.

  • A classic, hard-wearing fleece for just about all activities
  • Heavyweight fleece is warm and bluesign approved
  • Y-joint sleeves provide unimpeded mobility
  • Snap placket offers on-the-go temperature regulation
  • Chest pocket keeps small necessities close

A frat house classic & must have

Sadly this see,s to be a Fratagonia item. The snap up has been an iconic piece since my college years and I guess I’m just upset I wasn’t in a frat. Great pullover, soft, and it will get burn holes is you accidentally land a hot ash on it.

I’ve had a lot of fleece in my life, none better than Patagonia Synchilla. However, this does run a bit large. Patagonia, were these tops always this boxey?

This jacket was great. The only reason I returned it was because it was too heavyweight for me. I like very light jackets and never wear anything to heavy.

I bought this for my brother for Christmas and this is what he had to say: The Snap-T is the standard that all Fleece pullovers should be held to. Bomber synchilla fleece that has a soft feel, but will take a huge amount of abuse and last the test of time (assuming you’re not a total idiot and don’t take a knife to it). Y-jointed sleeves make for dexterous arm movements so you can have full range of motion from bouldering and scrambling to being able to reach whatever you need on the top shelve. The elastic cuffs on the sleeves and waist are a nice add too, keeps the cold out. The fact that most of the fleece is recycle is just an awesome cherry on top. As for sizing I don’t like a lot of extra bulk in my top layers so I sized down to a small from my normal medium like other reviews have suggested and I’m happy I did.

I wear it All. The. Time.

Synchillas are hands down one of the most comfortable items I have ever owned, polyester fleece that is made of high quality also makes it great for the colder months. There's a reason Synchillas have been around for many decades! They are truly the best, they do however run a little large, I would recommend going down a size.

Classic look. Usual Patagonia high quality. Great buy

I bought this a gift for my boyfriend. He has always wanted one of these because it is well known to be super comfortable. Sure enough, it was! He loves his pull over. Whenever it is chilly out he throws this on and is warm even during most brisk mornings. Definitely make this purchase if you're looking for something easy, warm and comfortable.

Normally I wouldn't write a review about a fleece. After all, a fleece is pretty much a fleece. Several reviewers for this item have indicated a problem with the sizing; They feel that it runs too large. I ordered and received the Patagonia synchilla and found that it runs true to size. I am 5'8" and 165 pounds. So I purchased my usual medium size (despite the warnings to go a size smaller) and found that the medium works perfectly for me. It is slightly oversized, so if you're looking for a tight-fitting garment, then you might want to go a size smaller. Otherwise no, many people don't want a tight-fitting fleece.

I recently bought a synchilla and it has instantly become my go to pullover. It is really soft and comfortable. I like that it’s light weight and super warm, it reduces wind chill as well. I spend a lot of time outdoors, and while I wouldn’t call this item “packable”, it’s definitely my go to for sitting by the fire at base camp. I bought a medium because I wanted a more athletic style fit and I got exactly what I was hoping for. I’m 5’8 170lbs, if your looking for a more relaxed fit, go with your true size for sweatshirts. See you in the wild places!

can I get some informations about the accurate real-measured size? (especially chest size in Large size and X-large size.)

When will the oatmeal header colors be restocked ?

When can I get a size L again? Oatmeal Heather color

I apologize Jaeho, but it looks like we do not have any on order. It may be a discontinued color or we may not get more until next year.

What size do you recommend for my son who is 6'5 and thin(185 lbs)? I know the large would fit in the body but I am worried about the sleeves>

I'm 6'4" 185lbs and I have a medium and it fits really well in the body, the sleeves could maybe be a half inch longer, but I have long arms and most stuff is a little short there. The large has an inch more on the sleeves but feels really baggy in the chest for me.

I am 6'1" and have 36" arms, but I am also skinny. Is there anyway to order a tall option or would I fit in a large?

If I was you I would order a Large. There's no way to get a tall, and the medium would be way too short. My boyfriend (picture below) is just shy of 6' and the medium was way too short on him, so we sized up to a large, and the sleeves are a little bit long on him. Should fit you perfectly.

I recently brought this from the manufacturer website. It haven't arrive yet, but I'm worry it might be too big. I'm 5-4 142 and I normally wear a medium shirt/ jacket. I don't my clothes to be too tight on me so I decide to buy a Medium. Would that size be too big?

this isn't a slim fitting jacket. I usually wear a size large shirt, i ordered a large and it fits just fine! I would assume it would be the same for a medium! if you wear a medium shirt, a medium should fit! If it's too big, go on Patagonia's site on a week day, chat with them and exchange it for a size down!

What is the center back length of a medium?

28 inches

I am 6 feet, 175 lbs and usually buy L in Patagonia, however the color that I was looking at in this is only available in XL, will it be a loose casual fit for me or will I be wearing a tent? I noticed that some people said it runs large...

Connor, I think you'll be happier with a large than an XL. Backcountry is constantly getting more of these in stock all the time, probably worth the wait.

Has the design or fit of the Snap-T range...

Has the design or fit of the Snap-T range changed. I have an old (10+ years) Snap-T that is up for replacement and am unable to try a sample one on. Should I be going down a size or sticking with the sizing on my present unit.

Yes they fit differently. I have two old ones that although they are the same size, fit very differently. One was made in USA, one in Columbia. But this newest batch is all messed up. I ordered two of the new prints from the manufacturers website. If you will notice, they are not currently being offered on the company's website anymore, so they must have been made aware of the poor fit and construction by many people. They were much too small and I returned them with a note of my thoughts. I ordered a third new one from a different retailer. The fit on this one is better. But it is tight in the shoulders and has a lot of room in the belly. (clothing manufacturers must think Americans are REALLY fat, because everything is made bell-shaped nowadays.) There must be cheaper lycra in the cuffs and waist, because it doesn't stretch at all. Newest garment was made in Nicaragua. For a company that is supposed to be so environmentally conscious, I would really like to see what kind of shops these garments are made in. Why do you keep moving from country to country? Bring these jobs back to the USA. If you look at the pic provided, you will see that the pattern does not match at the seam. P.S. Stay away from the retro-x too if you have excema or sensitive skin. They say it's made from soda bottles. And I believe them. P.P.S. Sorry to put you on blast like this P. But you asked for it.

I left the above comment from May 1st 2014. I decided to give the lightweight snap-t a try since it was offered in Navy Blue. The fit and construction of the item I ordered matches the quality of the sweaters manufactured in the past. Maybe they worked out whatever issues they were having. It was manufactured in Nicaragua just like the one pictured above. I am very pleased with the newer garment.

Hi, I'm 5ft5, 160 lbs, 42" chest, 32" waist. What size should I order?

I think a small might do it for you since the Snap T is a relaxed fit, but you're definitely close to needing a medium. Go small if you're ok w a little bit more of a snug fit, and medium if you won't mind it baggy and relaxed.

Thanks Ty. Just got a small and it fits perfectly. You're right Snap T is a relaxed fit. I usually wear shirt size between medium and large because I have broad shoulder. But this Snap T Small fits me just right. Very comfy and warm fleece jacket. Might come back for more. :)

How does this fleece compare to Polartec...

How does this fleece compare to Polartec Classic 300 (ie a North Face Denali) in terms of thickness and fuzziness?

Hey, In terms of thickness and performance, being the same weight fleece, it's going to be roughly the same. It's a little loose if you size it right, but it's not going to be anywhere near the overall bagginess of the Denali, which is especially huge in the arms. As stand-alone pieces, both are cold when the wind kicks up...like of no use at all. Nylon panels on the Denali add a little abrasion protection, but not so much in the insulation dept. Both pieces work best as a mid-layer under your shell...great insulation in that case, but the fit of the Synchilla under a shell makes it superior in my opinion. Hope this helps.

How is this jacket in terms of lint...

How is this jacket in terms of lint collection/ease of removal? I had an old North Face that I got rid of because it always had lint on it no matter what.

Hey John, I recently picked up a Patagonia Finmark poly/wool blend jacket and I've been pretty happy with it. It picks up a bit of lint and pet hair, but it doesn't hold it too much. All fleeces pick up lint. It's just the nature of the fabric and the texture. The trick is to wash it, then put it in the dryer with a dryer sheet and a wet towel. Those little lint rollers also seem to do a fairly decent job. Hope this helps you out.

Is there any way to order the blue geometric fleece? It shows the picture above but it is not available to order.

Caroline, Unfortunately that's a color from a past season and is sold out. sorry!

Ty, So there is no way to get that color ever?

I've got one of these fleeces and love it. However, it seems to pick up everything. My dog sheds and I can't seem to get his hair off this fleece no matter how many times I wash it or lint roll it. Any suggestions?

Make sure to use dryer sheets to cut down on static cling. Apart from that, not much you can do about it, although buying a new lint roller could help too...

DO NOT USE DRYER SHEETS WITH SYNTHETIC MATERIALS! They stick to the fibers and will rapidly turn your soft, cozy fleece into worse than a dog blanket...

Try dryer balls to eliminate static cling without (usually) artificial smelling and costly fabric softeners and sheets: http://www.theenvironmentalblog.org/2011/10/make-dryer-balls/

Im 6 2" 180 lbs and I usually get everything in a large, but I see a lot of people saying that these are real baggy. Would a medium be pushing it?

I think you'd be pretty psyched if you ordered a large, and would find a medium a tad too small.

i have a question what size would i get if i am buying a mens pull over synchilla snap t fleece poullover

Well, it depends on how big you are... Sizing is pretty standard, so get whatever size you'd normally wear in your t-shirts.

Would this be worn as just a pullover that...

Would this be worn as just a pullover that you would wash after every time you wear it or would it be used on an everyday basis. Reason being, I need a new jacket and was hoping everyone used it as an everyday jacket.

Hi there, thanks for the question. This is definitely a great every day piece and does NOT need to be washed every time you wear it. I'm sure there are some who have never washed their Snap T after years and years of wearing it and it looks just fine. Hope that helps!

Is there anyway to get one in Elm Green...

Is there anyway to get one in Elm Green anymore? I've searched everywhere (even Ebay) and can't find one. This site is the only one that even lists Elm as a color anymore...

Unfortunately Elm Green has come and gone as a colorway for the Snap-T and it might be tough to track one down anywhere. Keep an eye out for new colors coming in soon here though...

I would try calling one of the Patagonia Outlet stores. You can find their numbers here: http://www.patagonia.com/web/us/store-locator Also, Real Cheap Sports in Ventura, CA has a good selection of past-season goods. They will take phone orders and ship to you. I know it's tough when you find a color you like and you don't know if the company will ever make it again (though Patagonia often does similar colors with different names!). Hope this helps!
