    Hi all, I’m looking for a full zip grid fleece jacket/sweater for traveling. I have been using a nano-puff jacket, but really prefer fleece for traveling.  I like Patagonia stuff, and something similar to the R1 series is what I’m after, but the sizing on the R1 doesn’t work for me.  I normally wear a medium, but I have broad shoulders, and have to size up in the R1, which makes the whole thing too baggy.

    Any suggestions for other similar jackets?

    Thanks!

    Avalanche makes a full zip hoodie that is very similar. No Polartec lables, but it looks like it.  https://www.thrillon.com/tag/avalanche-wear-kompass-fleece-jacket-hooded

     

    The North Face is making a bunch of grid fleece tops.

    I’ve been wearing a discontinued Arcteryx lightweight fleece as a daily jacket and it works great. I live in Los Angeles though. Medium works for me (5’11” and 175lb)

    Like this one:

    there should be some new versions but i’m not sure.

    I’ve owned the several and my favorite is the Black Diamond Coefficient.
