Patagonia R1 CrossStrata Hoody Women's

Some days start cold at the put-in and end sweaty on the portage trail, and that's exactly the kind of shifting weather the R1 CrossStrata Hoody was built to handle. This women's fleece hoody blends the warmth and breathability of a technical fleece with the abrasion and weather resistance of a shell, so it works as hard paddling a cold morning river as it does scrambling up a mountain approach. The slim, athletic cut layers cleanly under a shell or PFD without adding bulk, while the stretch fabric and articulated shoulders let you reach overhead for a paddle stroke or a handhold without fighting your gear. A durable water repellent finish helps it shed light spray and drizzle, and the under-the-helmet hood keeps you covered when the wind picks up. Whether you're layering up for a shoulder-season paddle, a chilly summit push, or just a crisp fall hike, this midlayer earns its spot in the pack.
