Layer up for anything with the R1 Air Zip Neck Top—breathable, light, and mountain-ready
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I run hot when I move, and the R1 Air is my go-to midlayer for skin tracks and alpine starts. It’s super breathable, dries fast, and doesn’t feel swampy under a shell. I also love the deep zip—perfect for dumping heat."
We love a layer that works as hard as we do, and the R1 Air Zip-Neck Top delivers across the board. Designed by Patagonia with high-output pursuits in mind, this piece keeps us warm without overheating when we’re climbing, skinning, or hauling gear uphill. The 100% recycled jacquard fleece fabric feels light and breathable, even when layered under a shell, and the hollow-core yarns trap warmth efficiently while wicking away sweat.
The slim fit sits comfortably under packs and harnesses, and that half-zip makes a huge difference when temps rise mid-climb. From alpine missions to shoulder-season trail runs, the R1 Air adapts effortlessly. Bluesign®-approved and Fair Trade Certified™, it’s a performance layer with low impact and maximum versatility.
