Better Sweater
Great jacket for San Francisco type weather. This is my second Better Sweater and use this as my everyday jacket for work and play. My older jacket lasted about 3 years before looking a little tired after many washes. Really warm and comfortable. Fits great but sleeves are a little long but Im not exactly a big person. Great everyday jacket, would purchase again. Altrec delivered in 2 days, great service.

Not all fleece is equal
Patagonia always has a knack for creating great garments, and this item is a perfect example of that. While others make great technical layers (as does Patagonia too) this piece blends the technical with comfort and casual style. No one will look twice if you wear this not a nice restaurant, unlike some fleece tops that make yo look like you were on the way from or two a crag. I love this "sweater"

Great Sweater
When it comes to fleece Patagonia does it right they have been making great fleece products and I have been buying them forever. The better sweater is just a great sweater very well made very warm and fits very well. When there is a chill in the air I throw it on while having my morning cup of coffee as I sit on my porch outside and so warm and comfortable . Do not forget a very nice styled sweater as well. I always look at zippers on jackets and perfect one on the Better Sweater. Wears very well can be a great mid layer in really cold weather as well. It really is one of my go to Jackets try one on and you will want one and Patagonia stands behind there products and has some of the best customer service in the industry . Altrec .com has a great selection and excellent customer support.

The sweater jacket is of the highest quality, fits well, comfortable and warm....The sweater has it all! Thanks Patagonia and thanks Altrec BTW: Altrec has pleasant, competent and a most helpful staff Keep up the great work

Very Comfortable, Warm Jacket
This jacket is surprisingly comfortable! It has a unique, and elegant outer exterior (zoom in on image) while maintaining an incredibly soft and warm inner fleece-type material. It has two, deep front pockets that are lined with the same material which also prove to be quite warm. While overall I think it is an incredibly comfortable and warm jacket, there are a couple features I wish had been included. As the jacket fits me a little loosely (I'm 6'0", and 175lbs and wear a size Large), it would have been nice to have had some durable synch cords built in. Additionally, I've always been a fan of zippered breast pockets either on the interior or exterior of the jacket, something this jacket does not include. Overall, highly recommend this jacket. Though I have not had it long, I believe, like all Patagonia products, this will provide unrivaled durability and comfort for years to come.
