When it comes to fleece, Patagonia is at the top of the heap, and no one would argue with that. The R Series is the pinnacle of the fleece lineup, which includes such masterpieces as the Pile Jacket and Glissade, and the Snap T and Retro X, which are still standard items in the lineup today. I won't talk too much about the functions here, but I think you will agree that the quality of the MARS fleece, which used to be a military-issue item, is just as good as the R Series.
The "R Series" has insulation levels from R1 to R4, and the one we picked up this time is the "R4," which is said to have the highest insulation in Patagonia's fleece history. The fleece we picked up this time is the "R4," which is said to be the warmest fleece ever made by Patagonia. It boasts enough warmth to keep you comfortable even when climbing mountains in winter, and has more than enough specs to be worn as street clothes. In this season, you can just wear it under a shell and be fine.
. As a side note, the color of this particular fish is called "Sultan Red. Patagonia is very particular about the color names, and I think that's what makes them so attractive.
