Better Sweater Jacket - Women's

Best fleece

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Love this fleece. Super comfy and nice weight for fall and spring, or for layering under thicker jackets for winter. Fit is a bit small, I sized up one size and it’s perfect for me. I love the zip pockets as well. I got the ruby color which is like a burgundy-brown color in person rather than true ruby red.

Short arms, slim upper, frumpy lower

I wanted a utilitarian jacket for layering under rain jackets when hiking/cycling in the winter or as cozy warmth around the house. The fabric was soft both on the other and inner layers, and the pockets were roomy. The XS fit was off on my body, though. I have a 33" chest, and the upper part of the sweater fit fairly snug, including in the armpits. The arm length came to 2" above my wrists. The rest of the torso of the sweater went to mid-hip--longer than I would expect--and actually seemed wider at the hip and belly area. So the effects was fitted top and frumpy lower. Not sure why this one fit so strangely, as I've previously had good sizing consistency with Patagonia products. It's hard to name whether it is smaller or larger than expected, as it's both.

Not as comfy or cute as you’d think

I returned this product before using it

I purchased the Better Sweater in concrete purple and black. I purchased a size small. I’m 5’1” 115lbs. The jacket was a bit long and stiff on me and felt so frumpy. It could just be me, but I was very disappointed in the feel (stiff and not soft) and style of the items.

Great, comfortable fleece jacket. Flattering fit, warm, nice zippered pockets. I expect to use this for years to come.

My favorite sweater

This is my winter go-to sweater. Flattering fit, cozy warm and lovely colors. I have several in my closet. Also, a wonderful bonus to find one on sale!

Great Patagonia Jacket

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

Patagonia is a great product, good quality, nicely Made, elegant, fits well

Runs small/ tight fitting

My normal size is small. This fits very tight especially in the arm and pit area and my arms are not even big. My arms are very slim. I should’ve gotten medium had I known these jackets run small. Now they didn’t have size M in the floor I want. Mb I’ll keep small and deal with tightness in the arm area. Note to self- with these jackets, size up. I also ordered the same version in vest in size small, which is also very tight and small. Luckily I was able to exchange vest to medium.

As advertised

Bought this item a few weeks ago and have worn several times. Great color (green) and worked well in the city as well as in the mountains during a ski trip.
