Repreve recycled fleece and a windproof backer make this vest a reliable core-warmth layer for cold-weather work
The Patagonia Classic Retro-X Vest is built for the kind of cold that calls for core warmth without bulk: cold-morning chores, a brisk commute, or a layering anchor under a shell when the temperature drops. The quarter-pile fleece face and recycled taffeta lining work together to keep the torso warm on days when a full jacket is too much, and every material traces back to recycled or reclaimed sources.
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"Two zippered handwarmer pockets and a chest zip mean nothing rattles loose on the walk from the truck to the barn. The recycled taffeta lining keeps the core warm on breezy mornings when a shell feels like overkill."
