The Retro Pile is Patagonia's shearling-style fleece jacket, made from 100% recycled polyester double-sided solid fleece with a soft, woolly hand. Raglan sleeves and flat-seam construction keep it comfortable under a pack, and three zippered pockets plus a zip-through stand-up collar make it a practical midlayer or a light outer layer in mild weather. It sits between Patagonia's lighter Better Sweater and its warmer Retro-X fleece: softer and less wind-resistant than the Retro-X, bulkier and warmer than the Better Sweater. Owners rate it highly for everyday warmth and comfort, though some find the pile pills and the fit boxy.

Buyers rate the Retro Pile very highly, praising its softness, warmth and everyday comfort. Common complaints are pilling on the pile surface over time and a roomy, boxy fit.
The Patagonia Men's Retro Pile Jacket is a shearling-style fleece jacket made for softness and warmth. The body is 11.5-oz double-sided solid shearling, and the lining is 3.5-oz brushed mesh. Both fabrics are 100% polyester.
The jacket has a full-length zipper with a zip-through stand-up collar. It has a zippered left-chest pocket and two zippered hand pockets, and each zipper has a webbing pull. Raglan sleeves allow mobility and are comfortable when wearing a pack. Flat-seam construction reduces bulk and helps minimize seam chafe.
The fit is hip length.
