Product Description
WARM RECYCLED POLYESTER QUARTER-ZIP FLEECE
The Patagonia Men's Better Sweater 1/4 Zip is a warm, versatile fleece jacket that combines the familiar look of a sweater-knit with the easy care of Better Sweater fleece. Its regular fit, quarter-zip design and comfortable construction make it a practical layer for everyday wear, travel and cooler outdoor conditions.
Made from soft, long-lasting 100% recycled polyester knit fleece, the fabric is dyed using a low-impact process that reduces the use of dyestuffs, energy and water compared with conventional heather dyeing methods. Raglan sleeves provide mobility and pack-wearing comfort.
A zip-through stand-up collar, vertically zippered left-chest pocket and soft, shape-holding trim add practical comfort, while flat-seam construction helps reduce bulk and seam chafe. As with knitted garments, pilling can occur, and removing pills can help extend the life of the fleece.
