Description

Patagonia Better Sweater Fleece Vest - Men's

Soft, warm and durable, the men's Patagonia Better Sweater vest handles a blustery afternoon at the crags—or an early morning meeting—with dignity and style. Made from polyester fleece, it dries quickly and adds torso warmth on its own for the shoulder seasons or layers nicely under a shell deep into winter. The resilient knit face resembles wool and the plush fleece interior feels broken-in. Front zipper has a garage and windflap to fight chilly gusts. Contrasting trim detail at wind flap, pockets, armholes and hem lend nice finish details. Better Sweater vest features zip handwarmer and chest pockets. 100% recyclable through Patagonia's Common Threads Recycling Program—simply return your worn out item to Patagonia.

Poor design, uncomfortable zip

I was very disappointed with this jacket, especially since Patagonia has such a good reputation. The material seemed high quality, but the design is poor. The zip stitching is very stiff almost all along its length (it's due to the stitching of the chest and lower hand pockets along the zip), which wouldn't be too bad if it didn't have a small 4-inch flexible portion just below the chest. Because of the stiffness the jacket doesn't bend with your body. Worst part is that the zip bows out in front when you sit down or bend down, and because it bends at the small flexible portion of the zip, it juts out like something was sticking out of your chest. Besides looking very weird, it feels very uncomfortable in any position but upright. I wouldn't mind this if the jacket was cheap. But for this price and for the standard that you expect from Patagonia, the jacket is not good.
