Patagonia: Men's El Cap 1/4 Zip

Patagonia designed its original Capilene® Expedition Weight El Cap 1/4 Zip for Men for mountaineers. River rats soon made it their own because it stays so warm while wet and dries in a flash once you're out of the spray. The best of the original lives on in its descendent, this basic zip top with fabric doubled at the neck for warmth. Made of double-faced stretch polyester fleece (78% recycled), it's indispensable as a base- or midlayer in cold conditions and also serves as outerwear when the weather's mild. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program. An all-purpose pullover made from a contemporary version of our long-time favorite, Expedition Weight fleece.
