Great lightweight jacket
The R1 Air is a great option when you need a light versatile jacket. I plan on wearing on an upcoming trip to Africa. The morning can be cool but I definitely do not need a full on fleece. I like the style with the longer fit and the hood is a bonus for extra warmth when needed.
Love this hoody but it runs small
This is an exceptionally lightweight, but warm hoody with a nice long torso and arms. I think it runs small - unless you want a very fitted baselayer fit. I prefer something I can wear over another thin shirt and have it not be tight - so I sized up one size. It's very flattering even up one size. I like the deep zippered pockets and that it is breathable but warm. The wind does cut through it so beware of that if you want something warmer in the wind. It also feels snuggly and I love this zig zag fabric. Oh the Sleet Green color is weird. It doesn't look like the photo - it's a very very pale green, almost greyish green? Minty? It's a weird color is all. Not bad but just so you know it's different than the photo but maybe not in a bad way...
Cozy sweater
Nice and cozy and I love the beautiful color and it fits just like my black one that is exactly like it
Warm and form fitting, but forms pills
I really like this jacket for its color, warmth, and form fitted shape. I'm 5'6", 120lbs, with athletic shoulders and the small fits nicely. It is really warm and I love having the hood. For me, another inch in arm length would be nice. The chest pocket is too small to be useful for anything except car keys or an ID. My only real disappointment is that the fleece starting to pill (forearms and other areas that rub on things) only after 1 month of wear.
This may become my favorite jacket!
I love absolutely everything about this jacket! I bought this for hiking during the winter … when used as a layer, underneath another jacket, I have been SO warm. The hood’s shape really adds to the warmth factor. And then as I get warmer as I’m hiking, I can make this the top layer, and by alternating between having the hood on or off, zipper zipped all the way up, or part way up, or all the way open, I can adjust my body’s warmth, so I stay warm but don’t start sweating. It washes up beautifully, and even the gorgeous purple color (which I chose) does not run at all. I machine wash in cold and hang it to dry and it comes out just like it went in. And the POCKETS! Lots and LOTS of very functional pockets!
Size up if you really want it.
Unfortunately Patagonia has their sizing all wrong, while I went through the “Find my size” on their website, it indicated I would be a Large … wrong! It was way too tight across the chest and waist. The size chart indicates that a Large is size 14-16. Not true, it’s more like a 12-14. Anyway, just a word of warning to women wanting to purchase Patagonia. I did not want to get an XL, as oftentimes the sleeves are too long as is the torso length. I had to return this item and therefor did not get to use it.
Pilling Nightmare
I LOVE the way this jacket looks and fits. However, the pilling is out of control with only a couple months of light wear. I’m beyond disappointed. It looks awful in some places, and I expect more from Patagonia.
Favorite fleece
Love this hoody. I wear it more than any other mid layer. In spring/summer it becomes an outer layer. My partner started borrowing mine to do yard work, so I bought a new one so I always have access to one. He is tiring (complaining) of fleeces that don’t breathe and cause him to sweat heavily when moving, so he will prob get used to enjoying my R1 Air too often! Regarding 2024 colors, the Pufferfish Gold is disappointedly more tan/brownish/dull color than the bright orange juice color in photos. I decided to return it, esp bc once I start wearing in the hoody the fabric tends to look a little ehh, which will prob mean it’ll look even less bright yellow. (All the soft fluffiness of the New hoody disappears with first wash, but it’s still my favorite fleece. Note I wash in Cold water and hang dry.) Instead I tried the Milkweed Mauve, which in photos looks pink with lavender patch; but really is much more of a purple than pink, (though slightly more pink than 2023 Evening Mauve color) and the contrasting patch is gray. So far as I can tell the 2024 cut is the same as the 2022 cut. Love the cut of this btw, it works great for my active curvy figure. Most of Patagonia lately is sized too small for my hips and too small for my shoulders and too big in the belly and breasts, as if they’re making clothes only for narrow-hipped and narrow-shouldered women with breast implants; I have to size up in most items to get my butt and shoulders to fit, and then the waists are huge. This hoody is one of their items that doesn’t have these issues and fits wonderfully, like their Nano Air hoody too.
R-1 Air Full-Zip Sweater
I love the color, style,and comfort of this sweater. I have last year's R-1 and enjoy wearing it as a light weight, warm sweater. I was pleased to see to the plum color available this year. As others have commented, the fit of this year's R-1 sweater is a little slimmer than last year. I tried on both size small and medium and selected small again this year. I recommend this sweater but ensure that you choose the right size for the fit you want.
Nice hoodie - TERRIBLE zipper
Nice fabric and color. I really liked the jacket but the zipper was absolutely horrible! It was a chore to use it and unacceptable for such a pricey hoodie so I returned it:
