Great for gift giving.

Bought the Navy sweater for my spouse during the anniversary sale. This is a quality gift to give someone. I personally wouldn't spend full price on it so glad it was on sale! The main thing to note is it is a SLIM fit. If you are between sizes I would order up.

Odd fit

This had an odd fit - the sleeves were too long and tight at the wrist, and the body was narrow and tight at the hips.

Better than the regular

I got this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it! It fits true to size, and it seems higher quality than the regular, non performance better sweater. It is durable and warm.

Great basic for Fall and Winter

Bought this for my son to replace the same exact one he lost (mom rolling eyes!). The fabric is soft and the cut is great. My son is tall and has wide shoulders but this still works well for him.

Runs super small!!!

My husband is as slim 6’1”” guy. Always wears Large because of his long arms and torso. The large was so tight and barely long enough. Returned for XL. Fit much much better. What’s going on Patagonia?

Husband loves Patagonia

Got this for my husband... it was the only color he didn’t have. He loves these quarter zip Patagonia tops & really likes the navy!

Look like a tech bro, check.

My boyfriend loves this! I have one myself in ladies, and it's def warmer. But I don't know if this is a generalization but guys - or at least guys I've encountered run hotter. So the inside, thermal part was perfect for him. It wasn't as THICK as the ladies quarter zip. In the silicon valley all the tech bros have these, so it was a funny gift to give him when he got a new position.
