Love this better sweater

I have several of these in different colors. Fit and quality are great. They are comfortable and great for colder weather. Easy to clean. Durable. Patagonia is a great clothier.

Runs slightly small

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

This is my go-to fleece jacket to wear to the office. So I do layer it with a normal button up dress shirt inside. Given this, I originally purchased medium and it was too snug fitting so I ended up with a large with was perfect. So unless you are going to wear this as a slim fitting fleece without layering, I'd definitely recommend going one size up.

Not so better sweater

Familiarity:
I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Compared to my previous purchase of this item a few years ago, this fit is much baggier. This may be because the prior one had stretchy side panels, this one does have that. Also the prior one had nice pull-on tabs on the zippers, this one does not. Somewhat disappointed.

Great Fleece Sweater

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

The "Better Sweater" is a great all around jacket. Super warm, wears very well and is a good second layer. I live in a mountain and wear this on any outing and is good in the causal setting

OMG this is warm

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

Let's talk cozy! The Patagonia Better Sweater Fleece Jacket isn't just another fleece jacket; it's a cuddle in fabric form. Seriously, the inside feels like a luxurious cloud decided to become wearable. It's perfect for those crisp mornings by the campfire, or those days where you just need to cocoon yourself in warmth. But this bad boy isn't all about feeling like a giant teddy bear. It's got some serious style chops too. The sweater-knit face makes it look polished enough to wear around town, so you can go from conquering a mountain to grabbing coffee with friends without having to do a wardrobe change. Plus, Patagonia's quality is legendary, and this jacket is built to last. I've thrown it in the wash countless times and it still looks (and feels) amazing. Now, let's be honest, it's not gonna win any awards for handling a monsoon. But for light rain or snow, it holds its own. Think of it like a trusty sidekick – it'll keep you comfortable most of the time, but maybe pack an umbrella for the crazy weather days. All in all, the Patagonia Better Sweater Fleece Jacket is a winner in my book. It's comfy, stylish, and built to last – what more could you ask for in a fleece companion?

Not very warm

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

It is not as warm as an average lightweight fleece jacket, but it is still nice. If you are in a breeze at 50°, you might be a bit chilly unless you have a light underlayment. The arms are slightly snug for what I’m used of but it is still OK and probably more fashionable than my older jackets. The material on the exterior will snag on the leather of my console which is slightly cracked. I thought my arm was stuck in syrup until I realized it was just acting like Velcro. The crack in the leather is very slight and you cannot feel any roughness with your fingers, but the jacket still snags to it , overall I am pleased with the purchase

Variable sizing

Familiarity:

This is my second one. My first is a 1/4 zip and fits great. This one is the same size but quite a bit tighter in the arms.
