The R2 TechFace Hoody is Patagonia's most-recommended men's technical midlayer — warm, breathable, and abrasion-resistant in a piece built for the layering spot where standard fleeces run too casual and technical shells run too cold.
Ideal for cold weather, the R2® TechFace Hoody is a warm, breathable, abrasion- and weather-resistant mid-layer for versatile use in the mountains when weather conditions are variable. Fair Trade Certified™ fabrication.

What customers are saying: True To Size
Right pick for customers who want one technical mid-layer that handles cold-weather hiking, ski-touring approaches, winter commuting, and the kind of active outdoor use where standard fleeces wear through and standard shells trap heat. The TechFace construction delivers durability where you need it most — at the wear zones around packs and harnesses — without compromising the breathability that distinguishes Patagonia's R-series fleeces.
