Shovel the driveway and chain up the truck - it's winter with plenty a turn to earn. The Retro-X has a breathable and weightless windproof barrier sandwiched between cozy fleece on the outside and a Capilene brushed-mesh lining. Supplex nylon panels down the sides and under the sleeves reduce bulk and slim the fit. With a fleece-lined collar and protective wind flap to prevent winter's chill from sneaking in. Two zippered handwarmer pockets keep digits toasty. Imported. Capilene Core Performance Capilene 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.

Best fleece ever!
I was looking to replace my North Face fleece, mainly because it was getting a little worn out but also because I wanted something a little different (I got my North Face years ago before the whole craze and would rather not wear something that everyone else wears!). So glad I found this jacket! Super comfortable and warm and looks great, too! Fits me perfectly, although like a lot of Patagonia's apparel, it does run on the small side. Buy it, you won't regret it!

totally worth it!
I have had many fleeces but purchased this one because my daughter has it. I love it, just spent time in upstate New York and Vermont, where it was supposedly spring but completely windy. I didn't feel a thing, so sorry it took me this long to purchase it!

Let the wind blow!
Unbelievable a jacket that lives up to its description! Warm, light -weight and really windproof! I live in New England and we have had a very snowy winter thus far.Yup,I shoveled my drive way wearing my classic retro-x and was warm as toast. Even when the gusts of wind came by I was nice and warm. Thinking of buying the new version with the hood.My only con is their is no chest pocket. A good thing to know is that I'am 5ft tall and 115lbs and needed to purchase a medium as it has a slim fit. The arms are long for me,so I just push them up a bit,a small price to pay for a functional jacket.Thanks Patagonia!

It's a really nice jacket. Was pleasantly surprised at how warm it actually is, doesn't look like it would be, but it is. Fits well, and there's plenty of room to layer clothes if you need them. Only negative so far is that the black color seems to attract a lot of white stuff, but it's easy to get off and I wouldn't send it back for that.

LOVE THIS JACKET!
This is the second time I have purchased this jacket, the color was slightly different but this go around the jacket seemed even more dreamy- I purchased the Rice Paper and just adore it- the fit, the color, the style. The only thing I wish is that the inside was as soft as the outside. I love this jacket though.
