Customer Reviews Patagonia Better Sweater™ 1/4 Zip

This is a fabulous sweater. I bought my first one in red and loved it. I have since added every other color available. The garment is warm and cozy without being bulky. The fabric is very durable and, after years of wearing my first purchase, still looks new. It is extremely well made. Due to the slim fit (although it is not tight) it fits well under my winter jacket. I would not want to be without my Patagonia sweaters during our northern Illinois winters.

I love this pullover! Purchased it after having great experience with other Patagonia products. I am an avid snow skier/ hiker and this will definitely come in handy this fall and winter season. I have it in the grey color and my only wish is that It had pockets like the fleece but I may just have to get a fleece as well! I am 5'3'' 34C and got the small which fits perfectly.

Extremely comfortable! The fleece is soft and perfect for cozy winter days. I have no complaints, and this seems to fit much better than the North Face brand (for those of you who have a longer torso like myself).

Finally a fleece long enough for people like me who have long and lean torsos! Super soft, excellent washability.

This is absolutely my new favorite sweater. Zappos has the best fast service and easy return policy. I've tried them all. Love this company.

I love this fleece! It's pretty lightweight, which is nice for the spring and I wear it all the time. Flattering cut, even though it's a little loose and comfy. I am 5'2', 98 lbs and normally wear a 0, 2 or XS. I bought a small in this though and I think it fits comfortably.

The sweater is wonderful as a spring or fall coat. The fleece interior is soft and it washes beautifully. The arm pocket is large enough for a phone and my chap stick! I may get it in black as well!

I love this sweater. It is very soft , very warm, and the fit is slightly fitted. It was a luxury purchase for me as I rarely spend that much on a sweater. It was well worth the cost.

As an Athletic Trainer it is important for me to stay warm without too many layers. This really is the better sweater. I purchased the black and plan on buying one or two more!

This is an awesome sweater. I already had one of these with a full zip (green). Nice long sleeves, good contour fit, and softest fleece inside. It looks expensive.

I bought this for my girlfriend and loved it so much that I had to get one for myself. Delivery was extremely fast. Thanks, Zappos!

Love my Patagonia. So soft and comfortable. True to size. I wear a long sleeve shirt underneath and it fits great.

Very slim fitting. Nice and warm.

Love this sweater! You will never want to take it off simply because of the butter soft lining. It doesn't disappoint. Runs true to size.

I love this sweater/pullover. It's very a very flattering cut, a dense and soft knit with a soft fleece-like lining, and beautifully made. I have the black, am thinking about getting another color.

I found that I had to order this in a size larger than usual; my other Patagonia items are XS, but I am a S in this sweater. I'm not sure how tall the other reviewers are, but I definitely did not find the sleeves long. In fact, the sleeves on the XS version were about 3" too short for me (I am about 5', 9"). Thankfully Zappos has great returns, and was able to get me the larger size extremely quickly. It's a shame that they ran out of the oatmeal color, though.

So comfy and warm. It's a little awkward to layer because of the collar and all. But a good sweater to just throw on when I'm lounging around.

Bought this because my husband loves the men's version. It is warm and cozy, but the slim fit means it's hard to wear with a shirt underneath. I guess that means it fits true to size (I'm a size 0), but I wanted something that I can throw on over a t-shirt and be comfy all day. I'm considering sizing up, hoping it wont be too bulky.

This was a gift for my niece; she received the item but did not know who is was from as no paperwork was included in the box. It was awkward for her to have to 'ask around' to see if they sent it. Not a good buying experience.

It's a good sweater, but not my favorite Patagonia clothing. I'm petite, and decided to go for a medium, just so it could be a little loose. It's very fitted, which is another reason why I went for a medium. And, it's a bit stiff.

Very warm, fits a little snug but by no means tight. Just not baggy like most pullovers. Good quality material

In general I really like this sweater. The quality is good and it does keep you warm. I was a little surprised at the fit - it's shorter than I thought it would be, and since it's fitted, it feels like I need to dug it down a lot (I'm 5'8"). The arms, however, were the perfect length. I would have sent back for a size larger, but I think the length would have been roughly the same, and I wanted it to remain fitted. Just wish it had an extra inch or so in the torso length. Also, the red Maraschino color isn't quite as bright red as it appears in the images. It's more of a rusty red. Those two items aside, it's a good sweater that I'm sure will hold up for many years.

Runs very, very small. I ordered a small for my daughter who normally wears a size 3/4 or small in clothing, and there is no way it will fit her. The sleeves are long enough but it's very tight, and like I said she's fairly slim. It's meant to be worn over something so I would definitely order a size up.

I love Patagonia and I had bought this in XS (I'm 5'2''). I wore it for a year but it pilled a lot. I bought another one in small because i love the style but it's already starting to pill. Still love the style though.
