It is very easy to manufacture ‘heritage’ and ‘cool’ these days and at Countryside Ski & Climb we make it our business to seek out the genuine from the phoney as great ideas are worth spreading. Inspired by the courier bags the NYC cycle messengers used to use in the 70’s, Rob Honeycutt, a cycle messenger himself in 1989 San Francisco, took the leap to start manufacturing his own bags in a backstreet garage.
Patagonia - Better Sweater 1/4-Zip
A rugged 1/4-zip fleece pullover that combines the aesthetic of wool with the easy care of polyester fleece.
A rugged fleece, the Better Sweater 1/4-Zip works well under a shell on the mountain - and doubles as a classic sweater at dinner. Heather-overdyed 9.5-oz polyester yarns create an easy-wearing, moisture-wicking, bulk-free piece, with a handsome face and a soft fleeced interior.
The stand-up collar has a zipper garage; raglan side and back seams make for a classic shape. Micro polyester trim at the cuff, hem and collar wick sweat, and a vertical chest pocket secures keys and cash. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.
Features:
- Fabric has a sweater-knit face, fleeced interior and heathered overdyed yarns
- Stand-up collar and front 1/4-zip with zipper garage to protect chin from direct contact with zipper
- Raglan sleeves for comfort when wearing a pack
- Vertical zippered chest pocket
- Micro polyester jersey trim on cuff hem and neckline
- Fit accommodates wearing with layers as outerwear or a midlayer in cold conditions under a shell jacket
- Fit Guide - Regular Fit
