Patagonia Full-Zip Re-Tool Jacket

Rated: 5 by 83 reviews.

Moosejaw (Fall 2009)

The Women's Full-Zip Re-Tool Jacket by Patagonia is a technical full-zip fleece jacket with a feminine silhouette, and is great for staying warm and dry during day hikes during the changing seasons. This fleece jacket provides excellent core warmth without the excess bulk, and is constructed with durable 6.6 oz polyester fleece to wick away moisture and dry quickly. The full front zipper with windflap and stand-up, double fleece collar will help you maintain warmth and comfort when the temperature starts to drop later in the day, and the two handwarmer pockets offer a soft and cozy haven for your hands and fingers when you want to keep them out of the cold. This women's Patagonia jacket is fully recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program, which is just another feature that will make you feel warm and fuzzy.

pretty satisfied

Rating:****
i was looking for an all purpose fleece jacket for the autumn. i may buy another but i only wanted to spend $150 or less on my first purchase. for the price, it performs well. i got it yesterday, on a windy day in portland - i stepped into the store without a jacket. when i left, it kept me warm but when the wind whipped, it went right through. still, each time the wind calmed i felt pretty toasty. so this is one of those amazing patagonia inventions that keeps you warm yet highly breathable, IMO. it says "slim fit" but i find it a little boxy. still, happy with the fit since i intend on wearing it over sweaters. its pretty flattering overall. im thrilled with the Blackberry color. and i also am looking fwd to owning a fleece which doesnt show the usual pilling (due to its different texture).

I purchased this jacked for a trip to hike the Tour du Mont Blanc in September. The Jacket was just the right weight, light, but warm. We were backpacking and it felt comfortable under my pack...and looked great when we went out to dinner in Courmayer, Italy. I loved the snuggly feel of it especially in the evening and early in the morning. I have short arms, so was concerned about the long sleeves, but found they rolled up to the just the right length for me. I also liked that the jacket was flexible, not like a straight-jacket. The pockets were great, especially having an outside chest pocket. I'd love to have the Pesto color(not in the store I purchased from), so maybe I'll buy the pullover...Thanks for the super jacket, I love it!!

Nice Looking Jacket

Rating:****
A nice summer weight jacket. Alaska's summer isn't usually this warm, so I purchased this jacket for outdoor adventures. It keeps you cozy warm but is also not too hot. Our offices aren't air conditioned and this little number is like some kind of magic fabric: I don't break a sweat when indoors, keeps me warm outdoors. Every dollar I've ever spent on a Patagonia product has been a dollar well spent. I also love the color of this jacket and get at least one compliment on it every time I wear it. If I had one wish about Patagonia gear at all: it would be to bring back some of the gorgeous, retro colors they had for fabric in the 80's. This jacket is just beautiful though!

The most beautiful and pragmatic jacket ever!

Rating:*****
The very image of this jacket made me lust for it, and now that I have it in my possession I'm completely in love. It's so soft that it makes me want to stand around petting my own arms, and the rose taupe color is an amazing dusty purple. Plus, it has three pockets outside and one big deep one inside that could easily hold a water bottle, one of your shoes, a guinea pig, or just your passport and camera. I am 5'6 and normally a size 4/small and the size small fits perfectly with room for layering. Warmer than the Denali and certainly prettier. You should get it, you know you want to.

Funny armhole shaping, but good jacket overall

Rating:****
Having been spooked by the "slim fit" notation in the catalog copy, initially I ordered a medium, but I returned it for the small which is a good fit. Great snuggly fabric, works nicely as a sweater-equivalent. I'm not too sure what the "cross-dyed espresso and whatever-all" means in the fabric color (though I do know what cross-dyed means, being neck-deep in the textile industry), because there's nothing cross-dyed about it - this sucker is off-white. The only thing that troubles me about this jacket is the cut of the armholes - it's a modified drop shoulder, and it doesn't quite work in this fabric - there's excess fabric bunching at the armpit.

it's freakin awesome

Rating:*****
My husband gave me this jacket for my birthday last april. I wore it on every single cool spring day we had - in the garden, with my kids at the park, on hikes, over my pj's in the morning while cookin up pancakes in our farmhouse. I couldn't wait to wear it this fall - in fact, I have it on right now. Totally awesome features: The arms and bottom aren't gathered so it's loose and comfortable. It's super soft. The pockets are deep. Wash it and wear it & repeat, repeat, repeat without a care because it (and therefore you) won't stop looking fantastic.

Very attractive and warm

Rating:*****
Very comfy and very warm, and a flattering fit, too. Purchased for my daughter but I may end up swiping it for myself and getting her a different color later in the year. She is in a small,and the fit is good but not too snug - I am usually a medium and it fits me very well, but snugly. We both love the placement of the hand warmer pockets - not too far back so it's easy to walk around with your hands covered. Not bulky at all, so it makes an excellent layer underneath a shell for the really cold days!

so warm, so comfortable, great service!

Rating:****
I ordered the Women's Full-Zip Re-Tool Jacket several weeks ago, and am thrilled with this warm and cozy fall to winter staple. My only issue with it is that the sleeves may be too short for tall women with longer arms. Style isn't compromised in the design of this jacket, with its fairly true to size fit and typical Patagonia quality. Not only that, but I got a great deal on it and it made it here-from Oregon to my campus in DC -in an impressive amount of time-thanks Altrec! I'm very impressed!

ANOTHER GREAT PURCHASE

Rating:*****
I HAVE BEEN SHOPPING AT PATAGONIA FOR MANY YEARS. EVERY PURCHASE I'VE MADE IS TOP QUALITY. THE RE-TOOL JACKET I PURCHASED FOR MY DAUGHTER FOR CHRISTMAS. THE LOOK ON HER FACE WHEN SHE OPENED THE BOX AND SAW THE JACKET WAS PRICELESS. IT'S NOW JAN. 2ND AND SHE HAS NOT TAKEN IT OFF YET. IT'S LIGHTWEIGHT AND VERY WARM GREAT STYLE AND FIT. SHE LOVES THE COLOR BLACKBERRY-LUPINE. I LIKE IT SO MUCH I'M GOING TO PURCHASE ONE FOR MYSELF TO ADD TO MY COLLECTION OF PATAGONIA GEAR

This is my second one. Pretty, warm, and fleece!

I love this jacket. It's cold where I live (eastern Washington, NOT near Seattle) and I wear this around the house over a tee. It fits well;I'm 107 and the XS is fine. If you zip it all the way up the neck's not comfortable in the house--that's for outdoors in the cold; it comes up quite high and I have a long neck. Nevertheless I love it. Unzip it a bit and it folds into a collar. get the green if you have green eyes!

re-tool

Rating:***
Although I like the style of the re-tool, I found that the fabric is inconsistent with the warmth of the jacket. It has an appearance of being very fleecy and so you would wear it in the cold winter months. But it is truly a lightweight jacket and it is not designed for colder temps. I think it would look funny to be wearing such a fleecy coat on a sunny warmish day.

Too big

States that fit is slim however the jacket is very large
