This warm, 100% recycled polyester sweater vest combines a sweater-knit aesthetic with the easy care of Better Sweater fleece. It's dyed with a low-impact process that significantly reduces the use of dyestuffs, energy, and water compared to conventional dyeing methods. The vest features a full-zip design with a stand-up collar, offset shoulder seams for pack-wearing comfort, and long-lasting durability. It also includes a zippered left-chest pocket and two zippered handwarmer pockets. The shape-holding, abrasion-resistant micropolyester-jersey trim at armholes and hem adds to the vest's durability. The flat-seam construction reduces bulk and helps minimize seam chafe. The Patagonia Men's Better Sweater Vest is Fair Trade Certified, meaning the people who made it earned a premium for their labor. It's made in Sri Lanka and weighs 394 g (13.9 oz).
