Customer Reviews for the Lightweight R4 Patagonia Men's Jacket

Rob - October 19, 2009

Light and fantastically functional
Best jacket in the class. Altrec made it convenient and fair to obtain

Jean Boisvert - July 7, 2009

Excellent all-around fleece-jacket
Excellent for very cool nights. It is lightweight, so perfect for packing in luggage. It looks so good, you can wear it in town. Extremely versatile.

Great piece from Patagonia.
Love it. It's lightweight, but super warm, and very effectively windproof. The laminate makes it a little bit stiffer than a regular fleece, but it doesn't affect comfort or packability, and it is what makes the jacket so windproof. It's a more breathable alternative to a warm soft shell (though not DWR). The weight is nice. I can even wear it around town in So Cal during spring evenings, but I think it's too warm to wear hiking even during the "winters" we have down here. As others have noted, the fit is nice and trim. I'm 5'9", 145lbs and the small fits me perfectly. Looks great, well made, and well thought out. Pretty much everything you'd hope for from Patagonia.

Anon. Shopper - February 6, 2009

Light, warm, functional...
Great jacket and the perfect weight and function for those cool, breezy days. I'm 6.0, 210 and the XL fits great. It is cut a bit longer in the arms but that works just fine for me...better long than short. Overall this is a GREAT jacket!!!

A. Sousa - November 26, 2008

Functional and efficient jacket!
The lightweight r4 is impressive. Despite its thin appearence and feel, it delivers great warmth. I am 6'1" 185 lbs. with wide shoulders and long arms. The XL fits well. If you are of similar height and weight without the neanderthal arms, I'd go with the L. This jacket works well in all weather conditions, and is great for cold weather biking when you need a windblocker. Looks great, slim profile, gets many favorable comments from the ladies. Very nice.
