Made of 50% recycled (and 100% recyclable) polyester from Patagonia's Common Threads Recycling Program, with Gladiodornatural odor control. Imported. Common Threads Recycling ProgramResearch shows that the environmental impact of recycling worn-out Capilene base layers into new polyester fiber is significantly lower than making that same fiber from virgin materials. Taking into account that worn-out garments are diverted from trash incinerators, making new polyester fiber from recycled garments results in an energy savings of 76% and a CO2 emissions [greenhouse gasses] reduction of 71%, versus creating that fiber from new raw material.

Warm and breathable
Great product that was bought as a gift. Fits great and breathable during walks, golfing, hikes, and leisure activities. The half zip provides some added warmth or release of heat when it starts to heat up. 5'10" 155lbs and wears a small.

Very Warm and Lightweight
I am 6'1" 200 lbs and have a large. Fits very well in the waste and in the arms. The sleeves are a perfect length. It is very warm and lightweight. I have warn it as a mid layer between a compression thermal top and a hardshell with temps around 0 degrees F while skiing.

Ex wt does what promised
per all patagonia products, extremely well made and perfect. ordered to wear as mid layer and as base layer. ordered this one b/c wanted last year's color rather than the new 1980's inspired french paragliding colors. i still havemy 1995 ex wt fleece that i wear around the house and for yard work, and expect this one will last as long. really like the power dry fabric and its stretchy but not too tight. also good as a warm base layer or over as an insulating mid layer. really this is all you need for fall days, climbing, as a ski base/ mid layer. great garment. plusthe quality is top notch.
