I love it. You should wear a hat and then the brim will come out here and then I'm torn up split boarding - and this is just a perfect layer for that ...

So there you have it. That was our quick look review of the Patagonia r1 fleece, full zip hoodie for more information head on over to pack hacker calm...

It is a really nice piece. I can wear this really under a wind jacket and i will not feel too cold.

I find myself using the r1 chest pocket + thumb loops for warmth than the melly kangaroo pocket. However, the melly hood scoop with a cinch is much warmer than when I am fully covered in the r1. ​. The r1 air chest pocket keeps snacks warm when it’s cold and discourages putting in heavy items that will make you have a saggy, heavy chest.

It's form fitting but somehow has total mobility in the arms, something that I usually have trouble with due to having long arms. The near lack of pockets isn't an issue as I have a backpack and prefer to keep my phone in an internal chest pocket of my Patagonia R1 which I wear as a base layer. The length is good as it fits under my pack's waist belt but doesn't hang much lower.

This led me to purchase a merino wool base layer (Icebreaker 200 Oasis) and a microgrid fleece (Patagonia R1 Pullover Hoody) to start. I quickly realized that I would be able to wear the 200 Oasis and R1 while moving comfortably below freezing. As mentioned above, I am beginning to venture more and more into the shoulder season and see the potential need for additional layers in colder conditions.

Patagonia R1 hoody is simply incredible. Definitely try one. I like my Arc Fortrez but the Pat R1 hoody deserves its rep.

Patagonia R1 full zip hoodie. It might look too much like a jacket for you, but it is a fantastic one bag item. Warm, but not hot. Great for all activities. Looks sharp even when dressing up a bit. Water resistant and 3 zipper pockets.
