A taste of 3 fleeces from Patagucci and Columbia

Up 1st, the legendary Synchilla fleece from Patagonia. This fabric is the softer, fuzzier cousin of what they make Snap T fleeces out of. Neon colors mean you'll never go missing. But probably even better are the reverse-zip pockets that will fit paperback and traverse the entire front of the jacket. A classic piece, in classic colors. A bit too warm for the summer, but for fall, winter, and spring a perfect indoor/outdoor layer for around town and the ski lodge. A lot of folks like the snap version, but the full zip is a much better jacket, and doesn't have quite the same 'fratagonia' look vintage snap-ts bring. Columbia Indian Print half-zip. Not sure if its appropriate to call something Indian Print, but thats what this is. Awesome patterns, funky natural color schemes, and a baggy, relaxed, cocoon-like fit.
