A really good cold-weather crosslayer soft shell/fleece jacket that can be worn as an outer layer on the approach and then as a mid layer when things get more gnarly, the Patagonia R2® TechFace Hoody provides warmth and breathability with the added benefits of abrasion and weather resistance for changing mountain conditions.
The high-loft double-weave fabric is soft and warm next to skin but doesn’t trap heat and the face fabric is durable and treated with a PFC-free DWR finish.
