Common Threads Recycling ProgramResearch shows that the environmental impact of recycling worn-out Capilene base layers into new polyester fiber is significantly lower than making that same fiber from virgin materials. Taking into account that worn-out garments are diverted from trash incinerators, making new polyester fiber from recycled garments results in an energy savings of 76% and a CO2 emissions [greenhouse gasses] reduction of 71%, versus creating that fiber from new raw material. Capilene Core PerformanceCapilene base layers afford quick-drying, next-to-skin moisture management for all activities in all conditions ? from high-altitude bivies to sun-soaked water sports.

Customer Reviews for the Expedition Weight Zip Neck Patagonia Women's Capilene 4

Sturgeon - September 5, 2011

I bought this for work in the winter time. It's amazing!! I'm pretty sure I wore it every day! Even after 5 months of wear an tear every day, it still looks brand new. I love how warm it is, yet it's not bulky.

Great gift
Purchased this as a gift for my girlfriend. She has been incredibly happy with this versatile piece. It is her go to layer when snowboarding or hiking in cold conditions. Not surprisingly, this Patagonia baselayer is costly but comes with exceptional performance and build quality. Stylish and functional, highly recommended!

My daughter loves this Cap 4! She has the black one, and the vibrant seam design look great on her. The material has a smooth feel and the lining is soft and warm. Also it is light, much lighter than I expected. So far one of our favorite base layers.

Extremely warm
This is the ultimate base layer. I've bought lots of other linter base layers and this one beats them all. It's super light weight and excellent construction. Fit is generous and long enough to tuck in. Looks even better in person.

Great item!
Love the feel and fit of these Capilene 4 1/4 zips! Perfect for layering with a light capilene underneath. A shell goes on easily over the top, and the 1/4 zip allows for temperature regulation as needed. I actually needed the medium and I'm 64 inches, 135, muscular build.
