I love this snap-t, great colors, but its shedding a lot. It looks like the anti-pilling coating is coming off. I see shiny fluff fibers everywhere. Im also thinking, how eco friendly is it to have these synthetic fibres coming off so much? These fibres end up in nature as well? I think this is part of the microplastic problem. Sounds like somethin... Read Moreg to think about for Patagonia.
Im thinking about returning it because Im afraid the shedding doesnt stop. It is actually a lot that comes off.

Hella Warm, Kinda Wonkie Size
The synchilla light fits perfectly for me in a small. The regular synchilla is a lil baggier which I prefer.
I loved it when I received it at first. HOWEVER, right after I wore it, I felt something is wrong. It shed too much like a sick animal even after I laundered it five times, never becoming better. It bothered not only me but also my collegues so I couldn't keep wearing this product.
Hi Wendy! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We're really sorry to hear how badly your pullover is shedding. Minimal shedding on a new fleece is to be expected, but this sounds like a warranty issue. We've reached out to you directly with return assistance.

Perfect !!! Synchilla is the best
Synchilla is the perfect weight fleece for anything.
Ive had the northern green 2022 full weight XL synchilla for 2 months and I just wear it all the time/over a t shirt and its my primary jacket. The fit is so comfortable, its roomy but hugs your body over time. The sleeves and hem are stretchy perfects.

These pullovers are great and wanted to get a different size/color. Chose the yellow one (thats no longer for sale) and its like living with a cat or dog that sheds uncontrollably. If you get anywhere near a dark colored surface it will undoubtedly be covered in yellow fleece. Have your lint roller nearby.
Hi DL! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We're really sorry to hear the pullover is shedding so badly. Some shedding is expected when it comes to a new fleece. That said, if the issue doesn't seem to get better soon you're welcome to [return](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html).

DO NOT BUY
I bought this for my husband as a gift. When it arrived, the color, fit and everything was very cute. HOWEVER.

Hello Sera! Thank you for writing us a review. We're really sorry to hear that the pullover has been shedding. Sometimes new fleece will experience a mild amount of shedding, but this sounds more like a warranty issue. You're still welcome to return if though it's been laundered. We've reached out to you directly with further assistance.

Really great jacket, warm and stylish. Depending on the bottoms that I wear it runs short as it rides up. Cant return as I worn it already.
Hi Marcel! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We're really sorry to hear about the disapointment with the pullover length. Feedback like this is crucial to improving products for future seasons so we'll share this with our design team.

Iconic and Lasts Forever!
My wife has a Mens Small that's more than 20 years old and still going strong. I have a Lightweight more than 10 years old and in perfect condition. I have coveted this heavier version for as long as I can remember; and finally pulled the trigger. It's perfect for cold nights at the campsite, next to the lake, at the beach; you name it. S... Read MoreO warm and cozy! Classic looks that never go out of style. Be forewarned: You'd better choose your color carefully, because you're going to have this wonderful pullover for a long, LONG time!
I wish you had made more and more sizes. It is too big for my husband so next year I will start my order in July. 12 weeks for an exchange puts us in spring weather. It is still cold here then but you are out of mediums in that color. I have had mine since 1990.
Have not worn it enough yet to give a meaningful review. I can say, however, that the fit and feel are great and my early impression is a positive one .
As soon as one of these wears out or becomes unfit for casual or work wear I get a new one. The old one becomes the work and fishing version. Never too hot or too cold
As a 5'10 190 pound guy, I really wanted a good loose fitting sweater and I love this sweater. If you're looking for a more form fitting sweater than Patagonia has a lot of them but I wanted a good comfy "oversized" sweater and this is exactly what I wanted. Size large for me was perfect and the cinches at the waist and wrists w... Read Moreere perfect with plenty of room to breathe and move while not feeling too loose or too restricting. I can layer it with a flannel or polo underneath or just a t-shirt for a more casual feeling and less warmth. 10/10
I bought a couple of these when they first came out, 1980's ? They have held up very well. The lycra piping is pretty much gone and the plastic snaps don't hold anymore. I avoid using a dryer as much as possible. As far as the snaps go, I would suggest trusty buttons in the future !
I was tired of being cold while working outside and really don't like heavy / bulky clothing. A friend suggested "Synchilla" as the gold standard of fleece and I decided to give one a chance. I am pleased and delighted I did. This Synchilla is warm, comfortable and fairly light weight for what it is. Only thing I might request in the... Read More future would be on seam pockets. Other than this I am a happy camper. Cheers
I love this fleece so much. It is very warm and simultaneously light and breathable. It's common for warm layers to be heavy or feel a little suffocating but that is not at all the case with this fleece. Great for hiking or just casual wear.
This is another Patagonia fleece that is going to last me for decades to come. This fleece is so versatile and the perfect layer for me to grab on my way out the door or to build an outfit around. It fits amazingly; I ordered it a size larger than usual because I like the oversized look and I can wear it as is or grab other layers if need be. It&#x...

Very stylish and comfortable sweater and it provides great warmth. I love the material and it is incredibly soft and cozy. Chest pocket is actually very handy for carrying smaller things.
My son (aged 17) has the gray and we bought the oatmeal color as a gift for my dad (aged 75) & they both love them-it is stylishly classic. The fit is mostly true to size/slightly roomy. Nice weight for an extra layer of warmth.
I love this fleece. Its literally stayed the same for many years. I bought it mainly for walking the dogs and keeping cozy in the house on cool days. For those activities, I didnt want an athletic fit. But I do feel like the medium is very large. Wish that I got the small. Im still enjoying it though!
I love this fleece - very soft and quality construction. I have worn it continuously since buying it for work and casual activities - its a great go-to and looks / feels great
This is fourth Synchilla fleece that I've owned over 25 years. It is very warm, incredible soft, and exceptionally comfortable. It's pricey relative to other, lesser fleeces, but it's work every penny. Highly recommend.
Hits all three marks and it feels great to wear. The colors on the one I bought are great too. It can keep me warm in decently cold temperatures and I feel confident wearing it.
This piece is super soft and warm, and is high quality
I have gotten many compliments while wearing it. Personally I like things over sized so I got an XL, but even a large would have fit perfectly. This is my favorite jacket and I am obsessed!! I will be looking into getting more pullovers.
Excellent product really like it. I bought the standard weight as it was cold at the time, but I think I will get the light version to wear when it's not the dead of winter. Customer service is excellent.
Hey Shawn, thanks for the review. So long as the one you originally purchased is still in new condition, you're welcome to exchange out for a smaller size. To begin that process please click [here](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html).

Wardrobe Must-Have
I'm writing a review on behalf of my husband who loves his Synchilla fleece pull over so much, he requested a second one for Christmas. He throws it on in the evenings after getting home from work or when going out for a mid-week hike.
This runs large but it is intentional. You will get a relaxed look that does not look bad at all that feels like wearing a cozy blanket if you stick to your normal size. If you size down, its a much more classic fit. I purchased one in my usual size for casual wear and one in a size down for dressing up a little. It is incredibly warm and great at ...

I love snap T's for my work in the outdoors for the past 50+ years. Talk about rugged, warm, and indestructible, I have some that are 50 years old and still going strong! To me they are worth every penny you spend!
This is my second purchase of the Synchilla product. To say the least, it is one of my favorite items of clothing and is so SO worth the money. If you take care of it, treat it right, it will last you forever.
Bought as replacement for 20 yo same. Most versatile layering item I have owned. None like it! Only beef with new is accent color. Too purple. Old blue was perfect. Thanks for all you do, not just great gear.
I have had a of these for the past 15 years or so and wear them constantly unless its summer. Last thing I take off at night and first thing I put on. Very warm and comfortable, well made, and stylish. A cell phone fits nicely in the front pocket, the cuffs and hem have a slightly stretchy trim. Was on here looking to buy another and thought it was... Read More time to post a review
Being a bigger guy, I am enjoying that Patagonia is making the relaxed fit in a lot of their mainstay products. I appreciate the inclusivity for guys that like the outdoors, but are larger than your typical body type for outdoor gear.
I just received this and instantly fell in love with it! It's warm and cozy, but not too warm. Size M fits perfectly (I'm typically a size L in most things, but I'm finding that Patagonia's size L's tend to run on the bigger size). Already thinking about purchasing different colors as this pullover will definitely be in the... Read More rotation with my Better Sweaters.
This sweater is amazing. I have had it for the past 3 years now and it has been with me through it all.

Read Morerm enough for when it is chilly, but if you need something for really cold weather I wouldn't solely rely on this. Other than that it is perfect for me. Best birthday present yet.
I love this sweater! It's nice and loose and is big enough to throw on a shirt underneath, or just wear on its own with some shorts. It's the perfect addition to my collection for Texas weather.
I have owned 3 synchilla snap-t fleeces with the first one purchased nearly 25 years ago and the second one 25 years ago. Now I have purchased a third snap-t. The first 2 are in fine shape showing little worse from wear.
Awesome craftsmanship & quality from Patagonia. This is the perfect everyday fleece pullover you can wear when youre just lounging around the house or have to go run errands. Looks & feels great ! runs on the roomy side, so I would order your true size. No need to size up ! (I need one in every color now ha)
I love the fit and style. I decided to buy a mens fleece because I liked this color combination. I am a medium in women and the xs fit perfectly. It is a very well made fleece.
I'm usually hesitant to buy a XXL, as that size is typically a little bit small for me (I'm 6'-6" and 315 lbs); but reading many reviews that this Snap T "ran kind of large", I took a chance and bought one. Glad I did, because it fits me just right! I wear this Snap T while hiking and rock climbing. It's warm and ... Read Morelight weight enough to pack away easily when not needed on the trail.

Hi, The material on this - fake synthetic chinchilla is not so good and does not have a good hand feel. Skip this and buy the organic cotton snap instead.
Also sizing is way to large.
The single best piece of clothing I have ever bought
I bought my Synchilla fleece in 2013. I still wear it almost every day. It is warm, indestructible, comfortable, packable, breathable, and everything you want a fleece to be. It goes everywhere with me, and does everything I want it to. The fact that is recycled is a bonus, but the real value is that it never needs to be replaced. Cannot recommend ... Read Moreenough.
I have owned and loved several of these because they fit well and they're so comfortable but BEWARE they attract every speck of lint, dust, and hair that passes your way. Mine are constantly coated in refuse no matter what I do.
I debated getting this fleece for a while. Im trying to be more ethical and conscious of my purchases. This was absolutely worth it though. I wear it on its own or under my ski coat atop a base layer for cross country skiing. So amazing. Buy it!!
I have bought many of these sweaters and its absolutely amazing! They are warm and have a generous fit. You can wear this item for just about anything. I highly recommend.
I ordered this for my boyfriend for Christmas and he loves it. He wore it the whole week after Christmas. Its great as a heavier sweatshirt to wear outside/take the dog out in or just wearing around the house. He said hell wear it casual or out to dinner! Definitely recommend this and any other Patagonia product!
What makes this fleece exceptional is the attention to details. The polyester is incredibly soft and surprisingly stain resistant - you can easily wipe off, say, spilled coffee. The cinches at the cuffs and waist guarantee a good fit and trap warm air. The chest pocket is well supported and roomy enough for a pair of sunglasses or a phone without s...

This is a good product. But not great.
(1) It doesnt fit well with other Patagonia outer shell products. It gets bunched up. (2) It also sheds. i have worn it for a few weeks and it is beginning to look worn. I have black felt balls in my office and car. Next time I will spend more for the better sweater. I have had two of those and I love them.
The Snap-T Pullover is certainly warmer than many similar versions from competing brands, but the fit of this is tough.

The cut is actually quite strange where there is way too much extra material around the stomach area, while the chest and shoulders are OK. Th... Read Moreat seemingly extra material around the mid section is accentuated by the very tight elastic waist band around the bottom of the pullover. Unfortunately I have to return it. Its possible an XS could work, but that elastics band around the bottom was so tight on the small, Im afraid even if the XS fits overall from a cut perspective, the elastic band will be even more odd and uncomfortable given the smaller size. Bummed this doesnt work.
Love the sweatshirt material and quality. Keeps me warmer than any hoodie. Miss the fun prints though! Had a hard time finding the thicker synchilla in any fun colors. Also sizing is a little hard. Tried a large and it was too short. Tried the XL and length is great but its a little baggy. Maybe try tall sizes?
Over the last thirty years, Ive owned all of five or six Patagonia garments - nor because I dont like them, but because they are apparently indestructible. This is my third synchilla snap-t, replacing one from 2009. Theyre warm, light for their heft, dry fast, hold their shape and wear perfectly for years. Worth every penny.
I am super happy with this purchase. It is one of the most comfortable pull overs I have and I really like the way it looks. The fit is just how I wanted it; it is on the looser side right now while still looking like its not too big and it leaves room to grow for the future.
I first bought an XL and it was way too large so I sent it back and got an L and it was small. But, it was super comfortable and great quality I just wish it fit
I bought one of these jackets in 2000 that Ive been enjoying for 20 years. Though its still in good shape! , Ive been wanting it in black for ages and finally splurged. Classic quality.
I'm 5'5 150 lbs. I ordered a M, which is my normal fit. The sleeves were way too long and the shoulders didn't fit. I returned it and ordered a Small. It now fits me perfectly. I recommend to size down!

Not too warm, Not too cold. Just right. Like wearing a flannel.

It is great, but it is a bit big for me. I have a medium and it is too small and the large is too big. For the record, I am 6’1” and 182 pounds. Truth is this is not the only Patagonia clothing where I find I am in between a medium and large. Having said that, I love Patagonia products and the values you espouse!
Super soft, light, but also warm. I bought it to be a loose fitting product. I am 6' 1 and 165 pounds. I bought a medium. My favorite thing I have purchased from Patagonia.
A warm stylish and functional everyday jacket. Nice for fall or as an underlayer. Warm. I usually wear a large in clothing, but the medium fits perfect here.
Very warm pullover and looks good. Great customer service as well. I needed to exchange sizes and they had a new size shipped and at my home within 2 days.
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend’s birthday and he loves it! He wears it almost every day. He prefers this Relaxed Fit version over the Lightweight Synchilla that is more fitted.
