Super comfortable!

Soft waffled fleece and a great fit for this versatile top!

September 11, 2023

Love everything about Patagonia quality

Love everything about Patagonia quality and business ethics. Highly recommend this!

September 8, 2023

Great Layer

This is a nice lightweight layer. Great fit and quality.

August 25, 2023

When the temperature was around 75F

Just wore it on bare skin to see if it does well in mild heat situation as well as in a cool situation. I liked it because the inner side of the Fleece had continuous bumps of some special material that made ventilation of my body heat efficiently and warmed my skin very well in the respective climate situations.

July 10, 2023

Super Light Super Warm

R1 is the perfect mid-layer, or everyday insulation in cool weather. Thermal-Weight Capilene is close but needs a fleece overlayer. R2 is best for cold layering but still a robust mid. Love the R1 half-zip. New favorite!

June 19, 2023

LOVE THIS

This fits super well. I'm about 6'1", 170lbs, and it looks nice and sleek. It keeps me warm in cold conditions even though it's super thin and lightweight. I lost the first one I purchased from an REI so I bought another one right away because I used it almost every day. I definitely recommend this purchase.

May 7, 2023

Excellent quality

This is my favorite quarter zip. It keeps me warm in pretty cold weather and looks nice enough for more public settings. I love it.

May 2, 2023

Outstanding Layer- Great Service

Excellent layer. Service at the Nashville store is exceptional.

April 15, 2023

Go-to for spring morning commute

Perfect for commuting to work on my Vespa during those colder mornings when it will be too warm later in the day for a jacket.

April 6, 2023

Quality control

Quality control has a problem. My r1 came sewn wrong at the seam of the neck zipper. I also feel like the material of the squares of fkeece have be reduced. Ive not been happy with recent changes from Patagonia and think this will be my last purchase after being a long time buyer

A updated staple

This version of the R1 pullover is great. They've been a staple of my kit for a long time. This version fits great, has plenty of stretch and is long enough to not pull up when I bend over to net fish. It's warm enough over a base layer or light shirt, but not too warm under a rain coat. It's the perfect mid layer for all my seasons.... Read More

March 30, 2023

Deceptively Warm

Very versatile as either a base or mid-layer, warm, dry and comfortable all day.

March 29, 2023

Great Ski Midlayer

This is a warm mid layer. My son wore it over a 200 weight merino wool base and under an insulated ski jacket. It kept him warm skiing all day in 20 degree weather. I believe the technology of this top is efficient at breathing because my other son who was wearing double merino complained of being too hot. Lastly, its easy to wash and dried quickly...

Perfect Warmth Layer

I'm on my second R1, and the only reason I replaced my last one of 8 years is because I wanted a version without the hood (it got in the way with my hood jackets). It does seem to be a slightly different design from my last one, but still just as warm and excellent quality. Fit is the same as it was. A must have for me!

March 20, 2023

Love it - just a couple of tweaks...

Love the R1 regulator fleece pullover. The pullover is lightweight and insulates very well. I am very satisfied with the product performance. Couple of things I'd like to see change - (1) get rid of the very long tags on the side seam and the rough tag in the back - the one that annoys your neck. They're a pain and I'm wondering when... Read More Patagonia may go tagless. (2) Arms are very long, as is the body of the pullover. A medium would be too small, so I went with the large which is fine, just not a realistic size for me. (3) Thumbholes would be a big improvement. Given that the garment is often worn under another layer, if there were thumbholes then pulling over another garment would be somewhat more manageable. Otherwise - I love the R1 pullover, and I do recommend it.

March 23, 2023

Hey James, thanks for your feedback. We'll share your thoughts with our product designers. We typically reserve thumb loop holes for baselayer or Capilene designs, items that are layered under other items. You won't typically find that feature in our pullovers or jackets but we're happy to take the suggestion either way. This is a slim fit item which could explain why the medium felt small and you sized up. You can find the fit of an item by going to it's product page and checking underneath the color options. We're also happy to provide measurements! If you'd like garment measurements in the future, please reach out to our [customer service team](https://help.patagonia.com/s/?_gl=1*150crex*_ga*MTE3MzgxOTU4OS4xNjQ3NTMxMTc0*_ga_1SYPSJZYJ5*MTY3OTYwMTAyOS42NzguMS4xNjc5NjAxMjI5LjQuMC4w).

Too Snug and Quality Was Poorer Than Expected

I was disappointed in this R1 pullover. I usually wear a Large but saw that some of the reviews mentioned it's kind of snug. Since it's only offered in the slim fit I went ahead and ordered it in an XL so it would fit better. It's still way too snug, especially in the arms. The quality overall didn't seem as good as other items ... Read MoreI'd bought from Patagonia. I had the same issue with the R1 Daily Jacket that I bought at the same time as this. Has to send them both back.

March 11, 2023

Nice casual pullover

I got a medium but I think small would be perfect fit. Medium is good if you want it a little loose. Great quality pullover.

March 10, 2023

Snug Pullover

Got to wear this about 10 times before I lost mine. It's a really nice product. First time I wore it, I had to fix a tire. It was chilly outside (40-50s F) but I was comfortable. Didn't mind getting it dirty and was excited to have it on. It's a somewhat unique piece. It runs snug, almost glued to the body in my opinion (am a size M ... Read Moreand bought M). I wore a loose long sleeve shirt and I can feel the excess sleeve material from the shirt against my skin in the arms. So, I wore short sleeve shirts and fitted long sleeve shirts and felt better. You can consider this as a baselayer fit. I really enjoyed wearing this piece especially for activities where you don't want loose clothing. Will buy another one eventually.

February 25, 2023

My comments re. the R1

My comments re. the R1 and most Patagonia tops have to do with fit. I'm mostly a medium, but unless you're a skinny millennial, its going to fit too tight in the belly/mid section. Give the trim fit of medium tops, I have to go to a large which winds up being too long in the arms and baggy in the neck. Maybe create a new fit category call... Read Moreed "Baby boomer" with a bit more room in the mid section. Many of us don't have beer belly's, we're just not sporting a six-pack any more.

Amazing

Love the product. Warm, elegant. I also like the company with the philosophy and customer service.

February 9, 2023

Great for everyday

I now own to R1 pullovers. They are the perfect mix of warm and breathable. Extremely soft and comfortable for everyday wear. I previously purchased in a large but decided to size up to an XL for a roomier fit.

February 6, 2023

Been wearing Patagonia clothes for

Been wearing Patagonia clothes for years! Mostly base layers and pullovers. R1s, Synchiullas & down vests too. Have a couple of coats too. They always work and are special in cold weather. The hydrophobic properties are great!

January 16, 2023

Wow!

This was a gift for my husband. He is a trim 155 lb or so, and it fits him very nicely. He said it is more fitted than his other fleece pull-overs. I think it looks fantastic, on him. This was a really expensive purchase for us, but he will get a lot of use from it for years to come.

January 14, 2023

Warm & comfortable

I have 3 of these R1 regulator pullovers. Two of them I purchased within the last month, & interestingly, one of these is a hair snug in fit, while the other one is just right...but they are both warm & comfortable, slide easily under an outer layer, & I especially like the odor control.

January 5, 2023

On my 3rd R1

The first one I got when they first came out and I think I saw it in a store. I like the long zipper which is good for ventilation. Nice fit too. The old one got a little frayed so I got another. Again, great fit, comfy, warm, good ventilation. So after a couple more years I got a 3rd. . They're all great. The cut the fabric and that long zipp... Read Moreer!

December 29, 2022

Light weight and warm!

I have had one of these pullovers for several years and have always been impressed by how warm it is. It is also very packable so it does not take up a lot of room in your pack. So I added two more colors. I do recommend this.

December 27, 2022

Great gift for my son-in-law

This was a Christmas present for my son-in-law. He was very happy to see what we bought him and he immediately changed what he had on and wore his new gift. A big hit!

December 26, 2022

Perfect

The R1 P/O is my go-to top during cold weather for warmth, durability and comfort. I have had 5 over the past 10 years and still wear them all!

I'm an in-betweener size-wise. Technically, I'm a tall-large. If tall sizes are not available, I usually try an extra-large size.

This is the 3rd R1

This is the 3rd R1 that I have purchased for myself. The other two R1's (a pullover hoody and a pullover collar-neck) were size L. It's a trim-cut product which makes it perfect for use as a baselayer and a midlayer. However, I am tall with a moderate build and a wanted to try a size larger for use as an outerlayer when I'm biking an... Read Mored hiking. Since the R1, and just about all Patagonia fleeces come only in regular - NOT tall sizes, I have to make the best of being between two sizes. That being said -- Make no mistake, tho, the R1 is a terrific product and an near-absolute essential for hikers, bikers and runners.

October 22, 2022

Use to be a great product!

I've had a least 8-9 R1's over the years, it's been a favorite and go to for many outdoor activities and everyday use. Somehow Patagonia lost sight of the fit and what was a large is now a XXL or they don't make it. Jan-Feb 2022 purchase. Cannot recommend anymore.

Hey Michael, thank you for the feedback. We've had many different renditions of the R1, so it's possible you could be thinking of a different pullover or jacket. This particular pullover does have a slim fit, so that could be part of what you experienced.

If you still have your old R1, we can help identify it as well. Feel free to reach out to our customer service team for more information.

R1Rules the Day

I've worn R1s for as long as I can remember. My family kids me that it's my uniform. These mid-layers are simply the best on the market. From high output backcountry skin trips to needed warmth on overnights in the ADK, my R1s have never left me feeling i needed something else. Simply the best.

April 12, 2022

Awesome warming layer!

Recently used it for rucking and I sweated, but it dried quickly and didnt compromise heat when wet! My only complaint is I wish they ran a medium tall as the sleeves are a little short for me (Im 63)

Great Workhorse layer

This workhorse is a great layering piece that keeps warm when idle and dry during aerobic efforts by wicking away moisture. R-1 is my utility layer, usually worn over a capilene base layer with a shell on top or a down sweater on colder days.

January 23, 2022

Older Version is Better

Got this piece in January 2022 to replace my old R1. This version fits tighter, the sleeve doesn't fall as naturally to my wrist. The sewing of the garmet feels like a downgrade from the older version, as its more scratch at places. If I push the sleeve up to my mid forearm during the hike the cuff cut into my skin a little. As other review ha... Read Mores mentioned, the material definitely feels less soft and warm. In general its still a good piece but definitely a downgrade. Please bring back the old version. It is such a good piece of clothing to own.

Warm mid layer

Super light weight & warm mid layer over a tee shirt. Ware this around the house, casual than put macro puff jacket on for outside. This is my second one & ordering more colors when back in stock.

Great all around garment for cold days

Love the high neck. Keeps the cold out on windy days. This is my third R1 Pullover. Would highly recommend the garment

My New Favorite!

I LOVE this fleece. In the winter, I always have one or two fleece favoritesand this one has quickly become #1! Im seriously considering getting another one because I like it so much.

Not Same Quality for $$

The quality of the pull over does not compare to an older piece I purchased approx 5 years ago, nice piece but the actual fabric is not the quality of previous same "R" Regulator pull over(s)

November 10, 2021

Impressively warm with comfortable, move-with-you fit

I bought this and the Air Crewneck as warmer "mid-layers" (I usually wear mid-layers as my baselayers because I run cold. Both of them are awesomely warm, but the R1 pullover has a better fit, and bit more stretch. This means it moves better and is less restricting. Also, I trust the fabric to snag less when being active.

November 5, 2021

Good, not even close to the original

My original was stolen by someone at the airport, on the Security check in line. It was 5 years old and tough as nails and looked amazing. I quickly replaced it with a new one. It is half the thickness and half the warmth. It is also not of the same finished look. I am not really glad I replaced it,

Response from Patagonia
November 12, 2021

Hey John, we're so sorry to hear that your R1 was stolen and that you aren't happy with this one. We made a few revisions between the 2018 and 2019 versions of the R1, including finishing the cuffs and hem with a binding material rather than a folded over fabric hem so the edges probably don't feel as thick as before. If you're looking for a similar fleece but with a more sleek, finished appearance, you may want to check out the R1 Daily Zip-Neck. If you're looking for something warmer, you may consider trying out the [R2 TechFace Jacket](https://www.patagonia.com/product/mens-r2-techface-jacket/83625.html?dwvar_83625_color=SPRB).

Disappointing Quality and attention to detail

The R1 fabric is special in terms of how it provides warmth and breathability offering an amazing sweet spot for high output activity in cool weather. Alas, the quality of this garment has gone down as compared to previous versions and it is no longer worth the premium price. Previous versions of this garment had soft touch fabric on the inside ... Read Moreof the zipper adding next-to-skin comfort. It was a thoughtful touch, and one that went gleefully unnoticed until it was gone. Exactly the attention to detail that earns Patagonia its premium and reputation as a thoughtful, performance oriented brand. The new version omits this fabric such that the zipper and an extra bit of scratchy, skin irritating nylon at the bottom, are directly against the skin. It might not be a bother depending on how the garment fits you or if you wear something underneath, though I would argue that this garment performs best worn on its own. Why was this feature omitted on current versions? It strikes me as either an oversight, quality control issue, or cost cutting effort, all of which are unacceptable for a premium brand that should have this level of attention to detail for its customers.

disappointing update to the R1

Have been wearing R1 in large for well over 10 years. But this new version is a bit of a disappointment. Main issue is the new cuff.

Its tight enough to be a bit uncomfortable but the bigger ... Read Moreissue for me is the cut tends to ride up rather than fall nicely as a result. Overall the whole thing also seems to be blockier than before, so that it hangs much more loosely than its predecessors. Hoping time and wash cycles will correct this.

What can I say?

This is now my "goto' shirt for heading out in cooler weather. Very comfortable and appears to be long-wearing. I am sold on the R1.

Great mid layer

This runs small. Sent a medium back because it was tight in the chest and arms. Regardless, the large fits really well and I think Im pretty pleased with this as a mid later for hiking. I will be giving this a test in the Dolomites July into August and will post an update.

This is my husband's third R1. It is one of his favorite articles of clothing. He wears them all the time for everything! Biking, hiking, skiing, every day wear. Lightweight yet so warm.

February 10, 2021

Disappointed

This is the 3rd R1 I bought. I own Patagonia garments that are 25 years old and still worn. I will be returning the R1 I bought a week ago. Poor fit , thinner quality. This is not what I expected from Patagonia. Maybe you've become too trendy or maybe too much recycled content. This recent R1 is a disappointment

R1

Perfect for wide range of temps and situations

I work in a very cool basement but interact with others in a warmer environment during the day. I also walk 5-8 miles per day. This garment helps me be comfortable every situation... as well as my occasional fishing trip. Launders well and looks great. Wears like iron.

Right weight for second layer.

I am very loyal to Patagonia clothing and gear because of their excellent service and quality of products!

Previous Generation Higher Quality & Better Fit

Product runs narrow, tight and long through the body. Plus material is thin - fits and feels like a compression top. Previous generation R1 was much better quality material and fit was more proportional. I will return.

New design is terrible

I have two older R1 pieces bought a few years ago. They are fantastic. The new design is a major step down. The fit around the chest is similar, but it's probably 4-5 inches shorter.

Snug & Warm

Everyone who spends time outside in the winter should have at least one of these. I wore this particular one nearly every day for four months during a trip to the mountains in Afghanistan. Highly recommend for everything from day-to-day comfort to activities that have you sweating in the snow. It&#x27;s snug, breathable, durable, and packs easily. ... Read MoreThe front zipper is deep, which I thought was odd at first but actually made it easier to tuck in scarfs or balaclavas. I'm on the leaner side - 5'11" and < 175lb - and went with a medium because I didn't want a lot of bulky fabric. The sleeves and torso length were perfect, but it is a snug fit through the chest and shoulders. Again, I know a large would have been too loose for me, and I preferred a tighter fit over extra fabric I'd have to deal with under other layers.

Warm and last forever

I got my first R1 zip when the repair truck came to Raleigh, N C from the free bin. I loved it due to its weight and not just the fabric but it was mine.

Really comfortable for all day use, very warm for how light it is.

I love this piece and went to get another but they had to mail order it from a nearby city. When it arrived it fit snug to the arms and not like the first. Turns out it was ever so slightly different (piping, depth of fleece). I am going back for a 2nd of this, I advise everyone to try on first.

Great fleece, tight fit

I purchased the R1 XL and loved the feel of the fleece, however I was shocked at how tight it was across the chest and under the arm pits. Any base layer underneath is tricky as the elbows really bunch up. It felt like a baselayer in terms of fit. I normally wear an XL or a L for all the other Patagonia jackets Ive purchased.

Amazingly Functional

The R1 Fleece Pullover is amazingly warm and is a great product to wear as part of a layering system.

Too tight for a midlayer

The R1 is too tight to wear over a cap base layer in the same size. Size up.

November 6, 2020

Sizing keeps changing

For whatever reason, Patagonia continues to change the sizing of their R1. I would say this is a staple item from them. Its been around a long time. Ive purchased one every 3-4 years and the sizing has changed each time. First, a large fit perfectly, then a medium became the same fit as the old large. Now it seems theyve changed it again and a larg... Read Moree is the equivalent of a medium a few years ago and a large from 6 years ago. I wish Patagonia would simply be consistent with these types of items. The quality is still decent, but it has also worsened over time. The R1 with the embroidered Patagonia was the best quality of all. The most recent version is the worst in terms of how the material feels. Havent found anything better yet, but this will give me reason to start looking at other brands.

November 5, 2020

R1 still great except for the lack of thumb holes

I've been wearing R1 since it came out. It's been interesting to see how it has evolved. In general I love the changes but I was sad that my last R1 didn't have thumb holes. Bring back the thumb holes? I was initially a skeptic but I really use them alot especially in wet/cold environments to help regulate warmth for my hands.

October 20, 2020

Fits nice but a little tight under the arm

Picked this up at an REI and I really like it. With the exception of one issue, it&#x27;s very comfortable and breathable - it&#x27;s lightweight and breathable but also enough to keep you warm on a cool day. It is definitely slim-fitting, which I&#x27;m okay with because I&#x27;m pretty tall and slender (6&#x27;2, 32&quot; waist) but it feels tigh... Read Moret in the armpit area.

I'm missing the old R1

A little while back I purchased another R1. I already had two of them and I consider them to be one of the best items Patagonia ever offered. Everything about them was perfect, everything! I have to agree with so many of the current reviews regarding the fit and material. I am 5&#x27;-11&quot; and slender and the M is really tight and the body quit... Read Moree long. Regarding pilling of the material, I understand that some fabrics just are prone to this. But, this was never a problem with my early R1s. They are several years old and have never pilled. Something is definitely wrong with the material choice. It's hard to understand why something that is so good needed to be tinkered with. I'm really missing my old ones. The one I recently received was returned. As always, there was no problem with doing this, as Patagonia's customer service is the gold standard.

October 13, 2020

Fits great, horrible quality

When I purchased this it first great and looked amazing. I wore it only a handful of times and always followed the washing instructions. Unfortunately after the third wash I noticed its not only pilling but splitting at the seams. This is not the quality I would expect for a jacket at this price.

Great piece, if a little odd fitting

Heard great things about the R1 pullover, so gave this one a chance. Generally a great piece. Love the fabric feel and weight. Used mainly as heavier base layer or mid layer.

August 21, 2020

Disappointed in the re-design (2019)

As others have noted, material seems lighter than previous versions of the R1. My main issue is the change in the cuff. They are tighter and seem a little shorter in length.

Armpits are too high

Issue: The fit is nice and slim, which is perfect for me, but the armpits are just too high. Any shirt, no matter how form fitting, bunches up in the armpit when I put on the R1 pullover.

Disappointing Fit and Minor Decrease in Quality

The other reviews regarding the fit of the new pullover are absolutely correct. This is my third R1 and the other two are some of my favorite pieces of clothing. This one is getting returned. I am 5&#x27;10&quot; and 175 with a moderately athletic build. My shoulders are not very wide, which makes it super surprising that the armpits on this thing... Read More are so incredibly tight. No matter what I do the material from whatever shirt I am wearing beneath this garment gets crumpled up in the armpit and leads to a sweaty underarm mess. Again, I say this as someone who normally never has this problem. It really is extremely tight in the chest, armpit, and arms. Additionally, there seem to be some minor downgrades in the quality of this batch/year or R1s. First, the wrist cuffs are not as stretchy as previous ones. This makes it difficult to push the sleeves up and have them stay up. This was not an issue with previous versions. Additionally, the bottom of the interior chest pocket is no longer stitched along the bottom to attach it to the rest of the garment. This means that when you put it on, your hand can catch in this opening. I personally find this to be an indicator of lack of attention to detail. Why would they change this when it previously was so perfect? All in all, this was an incredibly disappointing purchase. My other two R1s are my favorite pieces of clothing and I would certainly rate them 5 out of 5 starts, so to see these modifications and drop my rating to a 1 is sort of a bummer. Hopefully Patagonia reverts to the quality and design that so many have come to love. P.S. The recent version of the R1 hoody does not seem to have any of these issues. It's great! I wish that this was the same thing, just without the hood.

I have owned a couple R1s over the years and always loved them. Wanted another one in a different color. I echo the other reviewers that this years version is not the same.

Oddly Clingy, Not For Me

I wanted to like this, but I just couldn&#x27;t make it work. I was looking for a slim fitting mid layer that would layer well and play nice with others. It doesn&#x27;t. I tried putting it on over even the thinnest, smoothest, compression-fit base layer I own and it still it was so clingy with so much spandex that it twisted and tugged both layers... Read More into an uncomfortable armpit clinging mess. It took me several minutes of fiddling to realign the 2 layers back into an almost comfortable position. A bigger size might have been a little less clingy, at least on my shoulders, but then the arms would be be too long and the torso too baggy. Bottom line: The fabric's combination of clingy spandex paired with a grabby gridded fleece lining makes this new R1 almost impossible to layer comfortably. Life is too short to spend it fighting your clothes. I returned it.

February 22, 2020

Newer is not better

I have owned many R1s over the years. Unfortunately, the poor reviews of the newest version are accurate. I typically wear a medium and it is smaller/tighter than years past. If you wear a shirt underneath, the sleeves bunch up and are difficult to get straight. The cuffs around the wrist are tight. It also feels tighter through the torso. Sizing u...

Versatile Layer For All Seasons

The Patagonia R1 pullover is still one of the best all-season layers out there. The interior &quot;waffle&quot; pattern creates a fleece grid that has a way of venting when you need breathability during activity, but at the same time it bulks up the insulating properties when used alone as an outer layer or as a mid layer under a jacket or shell. T... Read Morehe trim fit and slightly slippery outer fabric make it perfect for layering. The 1/2 zip neck opens wide for easy on/off (much better than 1/4 zip designs). Start your cold-weather activity with this piece layered under a jacket, then shed the jacket as you warm up and the R1 will provide a functional balance of warmth and breathability for the much of the day. Head out with the R1 alone for cool weather activity and you're good. Also great for crisp summer mornings/evenings in high altitude climates. I love mine, you'll love yours -- highly recommended!

February 9, 2020

Thinner than older R1

Have to agree with so many others. I own an older R1 which is my favorite pull over. Its a perfect blend of size, material and wearability. I bought two of the new model and they are tight and THIN!

A slim fit. Very warm, cozy!

The R1 tops are a lot warmer than the Patagonia expedition weight Capeline tops. I bought a few small R1 tops years ago and the cut was boxy. The newer R1 tops have a slimmer cut, so I ordered a small and a medium to see which would be a better fit. I usually order a small for most tops but the R1 small was quite tight, so I kept the medium. Also, ... Read Morethe length of the sleeves on the small was surprisingly short, a little above my wrist. The inside lining of the R1 is very soft.

Ideal midweight fleece for layering, or as active wear on a cool day. I'm 6'2", 180 and got an XL. It fits in the shoulders, but is a little loose around the midsection. (L was too tight in shoulders, but fit around the midsection)

Runs too small

I was concerned about sizing from other reviews; I normally wear XXL and would have ordered XXXL for that reason but it’s available so I ordered the XXL and had to return it (the Patagonia rep was helpful and nice). Bottom line, it just runs a size smaller than what it should.

Great looks

I purchased this as a gift and it is fantastic. Good fitting and warm too
