With a sweater-knit face and fleece interior for warmth and wicking, our Better Sweater Jacket can be worn over a shirt in town or layered under a shell in the backcountry. Soft and bulk-free, it‚s made of 10-oz 100% recycled polyester fleece dyed with a low-impact process that significantly reduces the use of dyestuffs, energy and water compared to conventional dyeing methods. Flat-seam construction reduces bulk and helps to eliminate seam chafe. A zippered left-chest pocket secures small valuables, and zippered handwarmer pockets keep fingers toasty. The stand-up collar has a zipper garage for next-to-skin comfort, while raglan sleeves provide pack-wearing comfort. Shape-holding, abrasion-resistant micropolyester jersey trims the collar, cuffs and hem. And it‚s Fair Trade Certified‚ sewn, which means the people who made it earned a premium for their labor. Hip length.
