Summary

The Patagonia Better Sweater is a classic no-frills full-zip fleece that's warm, versatile, and easy to layer for casual wear or light backcountry use. It features raglan sleeves for comfort and a knit-style exterior, but it's heavy and bulky with below-average breathability, making it less ideal for backpacking or high-output activities.
