So decided to stop in to REI to check out a Patogonia R1 and see what all the fuss is about. Ten minutes later I walked out with one! What a great piece. First of all, I really appreciate that they make them in grown man sizes. This skinny clothes trend has been driving me nuts. Heavens forbid if a guy is tall and actually works out, pass the 3XL usually. Well a XL fit PERFECTLY. I'm 6'4" 220 lbs and it actually has long enough sleeves, fits great throughout the body, and is long enough on the torso. I can't remember the last time I found something with a great fit. It is very soft and comfortable. Wore it around town today with just a T shirt on. We are experiences a really bad winter cyclone storm here in Vegas and it was a chilly 64 degrees. I was plenty warm, in fact was getting hot quick. Will wear this in AZ next week and alternate it with the Peloton 240. The R1 also looks great, not overly granola and doesn't scream hunting shirt either.
