The Pinnacle of Fleece

By Devin Krevetski October 24, 2010

This garment is the greatest piece of clothing ever to bear the name "fleece". Much lighter than typical fleeces, it does a great job of keeping the skin dry and wicking in moisture, and the long torso/arm lengths keep the bare skin from showing. This garment, paired with a light windbreaker shell (I use a patagonia houdini) will keep one comfortable in a wind range of conditions and a wide range of activities.

In all, the r1 has everything it needs, and nothing it doesn't.

The R1 Hoody is the greatest piece of clothing to ever be made. Not just bear the name "fleece". This layer is AWESOME. If I didn't have a dress code at work, I don't think I'd ever take this layer off. Running, hiking, biking, skiing... built in baklava... this thing excels in everything I ask it to do.
