The i-Run team says
Enjoy more pleasant winter outdoor sessions than ever with the Patagonia Retro Pile Vest for men. Its vintage design ensures an impeccable style while its intrinsic qualities help you operate in the best conditions.
Inspired by past models, your new ally features a Polartec fleece made from recycled polyester. Environmentally friendly, this material envelops you in a true cocoon of softness and provides a substantial dose of warmth when temperatures drop. You can thus fully enjoy your adventures while benefiting from effective thermal insulation.
You can adjust the amount of ventilation to your liking thanks to the full-length zipper. The high collar prevents unwanted air infiltration to protect you from an uncomfortable cold sensation.
The armholes and hem are equipped with flexible inserts to facilitate layering while keeping everything in place. Offset shoulder seams allow you to carry a backpack without abrasion risk.
Practical, three secure pockets carry your personal items and warm your hands if needed.
The bluesign and Fair Trade certifications ensure that the manufacturing of this garment is carried out in an eco-friendly manner and improves workers' living conditions.
Our model Julien is 1.78m tall and wears a size M.

Technologies

Polyester Recyclé
The use of recycled polyester reduces our dependence on petroleum as a raw material source. It utilizes waste and reduces greenhouse gas emissions from production. It also helps promote a new recycling stream for polyester garments that can no longer be worn.
Virgin polyester naturally repels water and performs exceptionally well outdoors.

bluesign
Since the year 2000, Patagonia has been collaborating with bluesign® technologies to assess and reduce the consumption of natural resources in its raw material supply chain, and to improve the management of chemicals, dyes, and other finishing products used during production.

Polartec
Polartec synthetic fabrics aim to mimic the insulating properties of wool while being more breathable, durable, and easier to maintain. The fibers used in the creation of Polartec fleece trap the air and warmth generated by the body, while efficiently wicking away sweat, making it the ideal garment for outdoor sports.
