Patagonia R1 TechFace Jacket Men's

Mountain weather never sticks to the forecast, and the Patagonia R1 TechFace Jacket is built for exactly that kind of unpredictability. Zip it up as your only layer on a brisk hike or slide it under a shell when the wind picks up on the summit, and you get the soft, fleece-like warmth of Regulator fleece against your skin paired with a smooth outer face that shrugs off abrasion from packs, harnesses and rock. The slim, athletic cut and articulated patterning move with you through big reaches and awkward scrambles, while a DWR finish keeps light moisture from soaking in before you can find shelter. It breathes well enough to keep from cooking you on the climb up, then holds heat once you stop moving and the chill sets in. This is the piece you grab when you're not sure what the day will throw at you and you'd rather just be ready for it.
