Patagonia's R1 Hoody fabric still sets the bar for alpine efficiency. Its highlow grid interior Polartec Power Grid polyester is key to the hoody's versatility, and the highly refined fabric the lightest and most breathable iteration ever remains exclusive to Patagonia. It stretches, traps heat and compresses to practically nothing, with the pared down but versatile features climbers and backcountry skiers need: a snug fitting balaclava style hood, a minimalist deep venting front zipper with a soft zipper garage that keeps your chin comfy, and a Variable Conditions Cuff with discreet on seam thumb holes and a spiral stitch construction so you can push up the sleeves with no ensuing forearm pump. With off shoulder seams for pack wearing comfort, a long torso for layering under a harness, an exterior chest pocket and Polygiene permanent odor control.
