Product Information Product Footprint
A modern mountain staple, the adaptable R2 Jacket serves as a stand-alone outer layer when you're on the go or as a superb insulating layer under a shell. The stretchy polyester knit uses variable-length fibers to optimize insulation and compressibility while affording outstanding breathability, warmth, moisture-management and minimal weight. Stretchy R1® fabric (made with 60% recycled polyester) inside the collar and cuffs enhances skin comfort, and the pliable R2 body fabric means you'll move easily. With an easy-to-use front zipper, glued-in zippered pockets (one chest and two handwarmers) and forward-set shoulder seams for pack-wearing comfort. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

  • The Good:

    Regulator R2 is an excellent technical fabric whose directional fleece biomimics the performance of fur, combining high thermal efficiency with synthetic virtues – quick dry time and moisture evaporation and easy care. Recyclable through our Common Threads Recycling Program.
  • The Bad:

    The downside of fabric with great breathability: it lets the wind go through unless you throw on a shell. Also, polyester is oil-based and though 40% recycled content is a breakthrough, we have a bit farther to go.
  • What We Think:

    We’re trying to improve R2 fabric’s stellar performance and bump up recycled content.
