The Patagonia R1 Air Full-Zip Hoody is a lightweight technical fleece made from 5.7-ounce recycled polyester jacquard with hollow-core yarns. Its zigzag texture traps warmth while moving moisture and air, so it works as an active midlayer for skiing, climbing and cold-weather running. The slim fit, offset shoulder seams and balaclava-style hood are built to sit under a pack and a helmet. Against heavier grid fleeces like the classic R1, it breathes better and dries faster but offers less warmth when you stop moving.

Owners treat the R1 Air as a go-to breathable midlayer for high-output cold weather. They praise how it manages sweat and dries fast, and many note the slim fit and light warmth as trade-offs rather than flaws.
The Patagonia R1 Air Full-Zip Hoody is a lightweight, quick-drying fleece for active use. Its zigzag-patterned jacquard fleece is made with hollow-core yarns that trap heat while letting moisture escape. The fabric is 5.7-ounce, 100% recycled polyester. The zigzag texture wicks moisture and increases airflow.
It has a slim fit and a low-profile, balaclava-style hood that fits snugly under climbing or ski helmets. The hood and fit let it layer under shells without adding bulk. Offset shoulder seams sit comfortably under backpack straps to prevent chafing. Quick-drying woven binding at the back hem and cuffs gives a secure fit and added stretch.
Storage includes one zippered left-chest pocket for small essentials and two front hand pockets with minimal zippers to reduce bulk. The fabric is bluesign® approved and made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory.
