Patagonia W's R1 Ultralight Hoody technical fleece women

The R1® Ultralight Hoody from Patagonia is a women's technical fleece with a hood, ideal for big wall climbing, mountaineering, and long routes where lightness and breathability are essential. This revolutionary piece is part of the kit dedicated to the most challenging climbs, offering warmth comparable to a technical fleece but with an extremely reduced weight of only 220 grams, similar to that of a base layer. Made from 100% recycled polyester with a double-knit structure, it features a smooth, abrasion-resistant outer surface that allows you to tackle the tightest rock passages without fear of damaging the fabric. The fitted design is specifically crafted to ensure maximum mobility and facilitate layering under a harness or other jackets, while the shaped hood fits perfectly under a helmet, providing an immediate surplus of warmth. The deep front zipper allows for quick ventilation during intense efforts and makes it easy to take off even when wearing stiff shoulders or a helmet. The raglan sleeve construction and underarm gussets eliminate annoying seams under the backpack straps and ensure total freedom of movement in overhead extensions. Functionality is completed by two vertical zippered chest pockets, perfect for keeping route sketches, a phone, or snacks handy without adding unnecessary bulk. The low-profile cuffs fully cover the wrist but can be easily pushed up the forearms, while the long-cut hem stays securely in place under the harness during climbing. Produced in a Fair Trade Certified factory, this technical piece not only meets the needs of professional athletes but also supports an ethical and sustainable production system.
