Patagonia Retro-X Vest Women's

Some pieces earn their spot in your closet for years, and the Retro-X Vest is one of them. Built from soft ½" pile fleece with a windproof core, it keeps your torso warm on a chilly put-in without weighing you down or trapping heat once you're moving. The relaxed silhouette leaves room to layer a base layer underneath or a shell on top, so it works just as well paddling in shoulder season as it does walking the dog on a frosty morning. A fuzzy fleece-lined collar blocks the chill at your neck, while the full-front zip and internal wind flap seal out drafts when the breeze kicks up off the water. Zippered handwarmer pockets give cold fingers somewhere to hide between strokes, and the hip-length cut stays put whether you're loading gear or hiking to the takeout. Patagonia rebuilt this heritage favourite using 100% Repreve recycled polyester certified by OceanCycle, so the warmth you feel comes from fabric that started out as ocean-bound plastic.
