R1 Air Crew Top - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This is my go-to fleece for ski touring and cold-weather runs. The R1 Air Crew manages heat so well—it dumps excess warmth fast but still keeps me insulated when I pause. The jacquard fleece feels soft on the skin and doesn’t bunch under a shell. I love the chest pocket for stashing a gel or chapstick on the move."

We turn to the R1 Air Crew Top when the objective demands movement and precision in frigid conditions. Designed by Patagonia with alpine efficiency in mind, this technical fleece uses a unique zigzag jacquard knit that breathes easily while retaining the warmth we need to keep pushing uphill. Whether we’re skinning toward a summit or hustling through frosty trail runs, this crew top keeps us warm, dry, and moving freely.

Built with 100% recycled polyester and hollow-core fibers, the R1 Air prioritizes sustainability while offering advanced moisture management. Offset shoulder seams enhance comfort under heavy packs, and the zippered chest pocket keeps essentials close at hand without adding bulk. It’s the perfect midlayer for high-output missions in variable mountain conditions.
