The vest version of Patagonia's longest-running fleece silhouette — core warmth in the iconic Synchilla construction, with the arm-free cut that handles active-stationary cycling better than full-sleeve insulation can.
Built from an 8-oz 100% recycled polyester double-sided fleece with an anti-pilling finish. Trimmed with shape-holding, abrasion-resistant nylon binding around the collar, center-front zipper, and hem. Chest pocket and contrast are 3.4-oz 100% nylon plain weave; pocket bags are 3-oz 100% recycled polyester warp-knit brushed mesh.
Standout features:
- Synchilla® midweight recycled polyester fleece — double-sided construction with anti-pilling finish
- Full-zip vest with zip-through stand-up collar — exterior trimmed with nylon plain weave for shape retention
- Three pockets — zippered left-chest patch pocket and two welted front pockets with webbing zipper pulls
- Nylon binding — shape-holding, abrasion-resistant trim around collar, zipper, and hem
- Hip length — casual coverage
- Recycled-content construction — body, pocket bags, and mesh all 100% recycled polyester
Fair Trade Certified™ sewn in El Salvador, meaning the people who built it earned a premium for their labor. 100% recycled polyester body reduces virgin-material use.
Right pick for daily cool-weather rotation, casual layering, and active-stationary use where full-sleeve insulation would trap heat. Layers cleanly under shells in colder weather or wears as standalone outerwear in milder conditions. The classic Patagonia fleece vest that earns its place across years rather than seasons.
