Patagonia's masterpiece, the R-Series fleece vest. This is a piece with the charm of the early to old-generation R-Series, which has a long pile and a very fluffy texture. Recent R-Series models feature lightweight, uniform fleece, but this era prioritized heat retention and durability. The difference in the pile's height and density is immediately noticeable upon touch. - Long pile that contains a lot of air - Fabric that is resistant to crushing and wear - Design that balances comfort and practicality This is a piece that truly lets you feel "Patagonia from the era when they were serious about making outdoor wear." As a vest, it can be worn over shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies, as well as as an inner layer under outerwear, making it useful for many seasons. Currently, this R-Series with this pile and texture is rarely seen, and it is especially recommended for those who value the "fluffy feel." ⸻ Condition - Overall signs of use - The fleece pile is still intact, with little crushing - No noticeable damage *Please purchase only if you understand vintage clothing.
