New R2? fabric provides lightweight, core warmth without excess bulk for mountain pursuits.
On cold mountain days, the R2? Vest turns agonizing over warmth-versus-weight into a no-brainer. Its unique variable-fiber structure, updated with a matte finish and greater warmth, ensures optimal breathability while offering toasty, low-bulk core insulation. Stretchy R1? (now made with 60%-recycled polyester) lines the inner collar for next-to-skin comfort. The vest has a new, easy-to-use regular-coil zipper front, welded-in zippers on the hand pockets, and forward-set shoulder seams for pack-wearing comfort. 100% recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program. Slim, feminine fit with contouring along the sides and armholes.

Great inbetween layer
Warm, but not too warm. Great for spring hikes. Very comfortable. My one complaint is it bunches a bit in the back.

Great service and product
I had a good experience with the ordering of the Patagonia Vest. My daughter-in-law decided that she needed the larger size. She likes things a bit over-sized. So she will probably exchabge it.
