Patagonia R4 Polartec® Jacket - Berber Fleece (For Women)

perfect,i like it

I got this jacket in red. It's a wonderful color. The fleece on the outside is really nice and fuzzy. It is lightweight but very very warm. It's roomy enough for me to wear a sweater underneath but still fitted and cute. Highly recommended!!

I am a thrifty spender that has gotten hooked on Patagonia clothing-- the discounts STP can offer me makes this one of the only outlets I purchase this brand from. This fleece is stiffer than other items I have purchased--but it is still soft and wearable. I bought the sable color and love how rich and deep chocolaty brown. Not metallic or pearly as shown in the STP photos. Will be keeping this item, I'm thinking it will be perfect for mornings or evenings out at the barn this fall and as a staple piece during the day for our cold Maryland winters.

i have been eyeing this fleece for awhile, and when i saw it at this price i had to get it. i've worn it every day since. the red is a good color - not flaming bright, but definitely bold. i am 5'3'' 115 lbs and the fit is pretty perfect - the chest is a bit puffy, but my chest is tiny so, this won't be the case for everyone. the r4 is remarkably warm considering how light it is. i've worn it in temps around 30 and been comfortable (and i just moved from florida to wisconsin). it's also held up pretty well in the rain for me, although you would probably get pretty wet in a downpour. i plan on using for running during the wisconsin winter as well.

Shoulder and chest too broad for body and arm lentgh.

Gorgeous jacket.

I already knew the jacket sleeves would be a little long. Also, the construction over the shoulder blade areas is such that it allows excellent range of motion of arms...and I'm assuming that is why the sleeves are a little long, so that when you raise your arms your sleeves don't ride up the forearm. So rather than rating the product with too long sleeves, it may actually be a good thing. So glad I got this jacket...I had seen it in person prior to purchase and knew what to expect in quality. I did some research on performance/satisfaction and that was all I needed to make this purchase. It looks great, feels even better. I will use this for casual wear in the colder winter weather..I got the brown color and it is rich and beautiful.

I found the fit good except the collar felt stiff and uncomfortable. I am returning it after trying it on since I know it will bother me. color is nice and jacket is warm.

Great for biking in the wind. I am usually an XS in this brand and the jacket fits well. Not stiff like other windproof fleece I tried. Will definitely try under shell for wet winter weather next year. Perfect for chilly morning dog walks and riding too.

I purchased one jacket like this and loved it so much that when I saw it at a terrific price at SierraTradingPost, I bought two more in different colors. I wear them all of the time. I get compliments from people because the colors are so vibrant. The only possible con might be the length of the sleeves, which are too long to wear out flat, but I roll them and create a stylish cuff (the linings are well finished and great colors too) and I'm off and running - the cuffs actually add to the look.
