Days lengthen, snow melts, the rock warms – spring means more time outside. Since our R2 Jacket traps heat and breathes freely, it keeps you warm but not swampy on uphill approaches. Our most popular Regulator® fleece jacket uses a refined Polartec® Thermal Pro® recycled polyester fabric, which is superlight, extremely compressible, stretchy and soft. The short-sheared but high-loft face has a smooth appearance, and the directional knit wicks superbly, speeding dry times. Polartec Power Stretch® panels on the outer forearms and along the sides increase durability in high-wear areas and allow for a close fit while retaining warmth. With a softly lined inner collar and chin flap for skin comfort, offset shoulder seams to stay clear of pack straps and zippered pockets (one chest and two handwarmers).
