- Is the Better Sweater warm enough as a jacket?
- It is a midweight fleece, good for cool fall or spring days and indoors. In wind or below about 40°F, wear it under a shell.
- How does it fit compared with other Patagonia jackets?
- It runs slim through the chest and shoulders, similar to other Patagonia tops. Size up if you plan to layer a sweater underneath.
