This pullover is amazing and I am only upset I didn't find it sooner. I have owned the Synchilla Snap T pullover for years and basically live in it in the colder months, but I was looking for something similar with pockets. I came across the forest green color in this model this year and decided to give it a shot, I was not in anyway disappoin... Read Moreted.
Compared to the Synchilla Snap T pullover , I was surprised to find that this one is much thicker and warmer. It will definitely be my new go to for the winter months.
I am 5 ft 6 in and around 140 lbs and purchased the small, its still a cozy, oversized fit but is not too long or baggy in any way in my opinion, but if you want a tighter fit definitely size down. I wear a medium in the Snap T.
I also really like the forest green color, something a bit different and colorful but still a winterish feel.
Because it is so thick, it most likely will not be the travel companion that my Snap T is as it is definitely not very packable, but it will be perfect for lounging at home, early hikes, car camping, and road trips :)
Thanks Patagonia for making the best gear!
This sweater is not as nice as the shearling button fleece pullover that I bulk bought, but it still feels very comfortable and roomy. It runs a bit large for the size I got, but it doesn't feel as form-fitting and soft on the body compared to other pieces in their collection.
Now this is completely my fault. I run warm and did not fully realize just how warm this jacket would be for how light it is. I spent some time sweating and feeling like I was melting. With that being said it was not too cold outside so it definitely wasn't the right weather to wear it. Now that I have learned I look forward to wearing it in t... Read Morehe true cold and I do love the jacket
I love this sweater and can't wait to wear it. I'm 5'7" and have another synchilla in a size Small that fits great (a tad baggy with room for other layers is how I like it). With that, this feels a little tighter and restricting than other synchillas, so I may be exchanging it for a size Medium and hoping for the best.
I really like Patagonia's pull-over fleeces. I love the side pockets on this fleece. I do not like the front pocket. the material on the flap covering the zipper is very stiff and unforgiving.
I bought a jumper beige and navy blue details as a present for my boyfriend, bought a size L instead of XL (what he normally wears) and it fit perfectly, both in length and on the sleeves.
The material is amazing is super soft and warm. Has 3 pockets what is supper handy and a zipper on the collar area gives a nice design.
Definitely buying more ... Read Morefrom here. :)
This is the second Synchilla I own. both are soft, like wearing a comfy blanket, and warm. It is a regular fit; not too tight nor too baggy. I think the zippers on the hand-warmer pockets are uncomfortable and think this could do without. Otherwise, it is a great winter layer!
The fleece keeps me super warm and the quality is really wonderful! It is definitely a men's fit so i have to roll the sleeves and the hem a little bit, but that's not a huge deal. My only complaint is that the vertical flaps on the side pockets are very stiff, which makes the front of the fleece feel even more bulky than it already is. T... Read Morehe pockets are very convenient, though. The color and the pattern are very beautiful.
I steelhead fish in the rain sometimes and I need a garmet that's warm and dries quickly. My fleece jacket fits the bill. It's good looking and can be worn with casual clothing or fishing gear.
This is a very warm sweater. I love the warmth and the color. The size is a bit tricky, though. I'm 5'4'' and usually wears XS, but this XS is a bit large. I wear it as an over-size and kind of cool with it.
I love this super warm fleece. I love the pockets and the style! My only problem is like some of the other reviews. The bottom hem and sleeve stitching, is coming undone. Second time wearing it an its falling apart .

Love it
Thick, warm, big pocket with a small pocket on top. Really love the fit.
Do not be fooled by the description that this is a more relaxed fit. It is very slim. I wear a True Medium in all brands, including Patagonia.
I have an average build. This one is very narrow in the shoulders and the sleeves are also very slim. You cannot layer any long sleeve underneath it comfortably.
Unfortunately this follws the trend that ... Read MorePatagonia is moving away from its outdoor roots. Most garments they make today follow the slim and "fashionable" cuts. Older Patagonia models are the best because they have a more relaxed cut, allowing for true range of motion. Please go back to offering garments that one can actually perform outdoor tasks in them.
Thank you for taking the time to provide this review, Cory. We're sorry the fit of this Anorak didn't hit the mark for you! We are sharing your feedback on the fit with our design team, and we're glad you've returned it, since we want you to be happy with all of our gear.

Unisex sizing
Super warm and love the pockets. Size down for women.
I bought this to wear in mid-west winters. It is a perfect weight for outdoor activities with a mid-weight capilene base layer for when the temps are in the upper 20's.

Great addition to the layers.
I was looking for a replacement for my 20 year old snap t and this looked perfect. And it is. The pockets and the zipped pouch are excellent. The fabric is comfortable and it. is. warm.
I weight 150lbs, 5'6-5-7 slim. Medium is on a bit bigger size but manageable. Small would be perfect for a regular fit. Not too big and not too small. Super warm and great quality.
Love this top! It is warm without the overheating. And has enough room to add a layer for extra warmth if wanted.love the center pocket. Great, simple color for jeans. Launders great. Fit is a bit large but I like the extra room.
This sweater fit more comfortably than expected. I have the nanopuff jacket and expected it to fit just as snug as that one in medium, but this felt more relaxed. It was a good fit and can comfortably wear it all day on a cool day.
Looks great on and cozy! Im 5 ft 6 and 140 lb woman and the medium was roomy. Love the half zip, zippered kangaroo pocket, high collar, thick fleece. Stingray mauve color is purply and i super love it, so glad I bought.
I'm 5-9" tall and 165-168 lbs and the medium fit is perfect. The medium has plenty of room for movement without being too big or too tight. I use this with merino wool base layers and a Goe-Tex outer jacket mainly for skiing. If it's very cold, I'll wear a nano puff jacket under the outer layer and over this Fleece Anorak.
This... Read More is a perfect weight and very warm, being it's a double layer fleece. The long front zip gives you a good way to vent if need be and it makes for easy donning and removal. The top pouch is shallow, so it's perfect for retrieving items that get lost in deeper pouches. The hand warmers on the sides as well as the pouch are mesh lined and storm flap covered. The collar is a little big to fit snug around my 15.5" neck but with an outer layer it snugs up to keep the warmth in.
The Forest Floor colors are very retro which really makes it a Patagonia stand out. The Synchilla is 100% manufactured recycled polyester which is a giant plus for the environment for future generations.
You won't be disappointed with this product if you like warmth, functionality, style and environmental consciousness.
I love this fleece. I love the pockets, the pouch, the color scheme the warmth, the half zip collar. However the seam around the waist has popped after a couple light uses of just putting on and pulling off the jacket. I bought a medium which offers me loose regular fit. Its a fix I can do myself with a little needle and thread. But it just makes m... Read Moree a little sad when I think about how much I paid for this item.

Almost perfect
For starters this is a layering sweater that keeps me warm when I have a very insulated jacket, something too warm but Im not one to complain when walking around in super cold weather.

Hey Kevin, thanks for the review. We're so sorry to hear that you've run into some quality issues with this fleece. We looked up your order and see that you purchased in August of this year; we also do not expect such deterioration after such a short amount of time. We've emailed you to gather information and offer you some solutions. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!
I have to admit, I am a sucker for Patagonia, particularly their retro range. I bought this knowing full well I wouldn't be able to afford to buy my Family Christmas presents this year and I do not regret it at all.

It's also cosier than a log fire on a winter's night.
This is a terrific garment, except for one thing. I tried my usual size xl, but the forearms were too tight. Then I tried the xxl. Still too tight to justify the purchase. I have noted this sizing tendency in some other Patagonia shirts and jackets, but this time it was just too much. Otherwise it would have been a great replacement for my venerabl... Read Moree Marsupial fleece, which I have happily kept. I learned the hard way to be careful about what might escape from the Marsupial pocket/pouch. The Anorak pouch and pocket zips solve this problem, if your forearms do not bind.
a tiny bit of baggy for me (173cm thin build) but the extra room feels cozy. quite warm but needed to take it off immediately after some sweating during middle/early afternoon of the day.

great comfort and color scheme
I was looking for a pattern and the forest floor did not disappoint. Great look and excellent fit. The colors are more muted than the photos and it's still fantastic. I am 5'10" with an athletic build and Large was the right size.
I love this sweater so much because its such a cool design and also so comfortable! Ive been wearing Patagonias sweaters for a while now, but they did something different with this one and it really shows. Somehow they made it durable and super cozy at the same time. Definitely worth the money!
I don’t often leave reviews but Patagonia products are incredible. The fleece feels great the sizing is spot on.
Such an incredible company doing what needs to be done.
Hey Nattalee, thank you for the review. We're sorry to hear that the wrong size was purchased. If you ever need details like the garment measurements of different sizes, please reach out to our [customer service team](https://help.patagonia.com/s/) and we would be happy to provide those to you.

Warm and cozy
Wish it said Patagonia on it somewhere. Feels like a lost opportunity to have it so people can see it
I'm a 5'6", 112 pounds, woman, who has worn Patagonia unisex styles XS for 20+ years and women's size S. This garment does NOT comport with a unisex fit.

Got this for my boyfriend and he loves it. Lots of pocket space and super warm. Perfect for fall and winter - snowboarding, climbing, hiking, fishing its perfect for when you need to warm up.
Its a very cute sweater I ordered XXL because XL sometimes is to small for my bust. Its alittle too big, but I don't mind it. I could have probably sized down to get a tighter fit. Ill update on how it holds up in the long run.
Thanks for the feedback, Meliza! You might appreciate the hot [product care](https://www.patagonia.com/product-care.html) tips we put together for longevity of all our gear. We hope you love this Synchilla!

Cozy retro vibes
I was pleased to find a fleece with lots of zippered pockets, and on sale too! Dig the fun retro colors. Nice and cozy. Sizing is spot-on; I'm 6'1", 170 lbs. with a 38-inch chest. Medium fits really well. My only suggestion for improvement would be to make the anorak pocket deeper. It's good for keys/sunglasses/other small items... Read More, but I was hoping for a larger pocket.
I'm enjoying this jacket, because I turned it into a vest. The sleeves were removed at the alteration shop. Now my arms move freely when walking/running. The three zippered security pockets are a big plus. The large kangaroo pocket has a shallow 5 inch depth, but It works well for my needs. I can leave my purse at home!
We are so stoked to hear you are enjoying your now personalized Synchilla Anorak! If there are any issues due to the alteration, we sadly won't be able to cover this under warranty. But it sounds like it will be with you for many years and adventures! That being said, our repair option will always be available.

Comfy
This is a comfy fleece, but not the most practical fleece for most people. I find that this Synchilla has a retro feel, that one learns to appreciate, like a retro car or device. The material is invisible to wind, its almost like wearing nothing, it sheds quite easily at the slightest abrasion, such as a seatbelt, my seatbelt is covered with fleece... Read More lint. Los Gatos is more comfy, retro x is absolutely wind proof, r1 is more breathable, but this is like an old Cadillac that does nothing right but still is a go to. One advantage this has over other fleeces is that it is very quick to dry. This is my first anorak, the top pocket is smaller than I was expecting but still nice and useful. Zippers and pockets are all great. Overall quality piece for transitional seasonal weather. Sizing felt good for a pull over.
I ordered this fleece few months ago and i fell in love. Its very warm and cozy. However the moment i put it on, i hear a thread snap, as others here have warned. Thankfully Patagonia exchanged the item and the new one doesn't seem to have any faulty stitching. I do recommend this as a nicer looking fleece and i especially like the new oar tan...

Super Warm
This is a nice casual fleece to wear around town or at the campground. Its warm and cozy (as long as there is now wind) Ive gotten compliments every time Ive worn it!

Read Morethat holds. Im not usually careful with my Patagonia clothing, but Ill have to be with this piece.
I really love this item. It fits loose without being too baggy. Comfortable and stylish.

Will most likely send it in for repair at some point but pretty frust... Read Morerated how quickly that happened.
This is the first unisex style Ive had from Patagonia, and am very pleased with the fit - the size guide was accurate. Love the combination of my 2 favorite colors and the deep neckline opening - the reasons I purchased this style
I've been a Patagonia fan for years and have a few fleeces that I love, but this is the first time I've bought one brand new. No regrets. This may be my new favorite.

I am more 3xl then xxl. If you are wearing xxl it fits great the pockets are great . Just wish it was in 3xl would buy 2 if Patagonia makes it in that size
The sizing, fit, and length of this pullover is amazing. It's easy to layer under any jacket but is really warm as well. Overall an amazing anorak and would highly recommend
I bought this for my husband and he love it! I have to say, I was nervous after having read some of the other reviews and I did warn my husband to be careful when he put it on.

Perfect.
I usually dont write reviews but I am super happy with this purchase. More of a relaxed fit (which I prefer). Surprisingly warm, too. This will be my go-to fleece for sure.
I am 5 feet 3, and I love to buy mens clothing because I love oversized clothing. This one looks a little bit oversized on me, but I can layer with tshirt inside. I love the color block as well.
Hey Noble, thanks for reaching out. We're sorry to hear of the stitching issues you've encountered. We're not entirely sure what would cause that, unless the anorak is too small and it needs to be stretched extensively when put on. We're guessing that probably is not the case for you, so if you'd like you're welcome to send it in for warranty evaluation.

AMAZING (But...)
I absolutely LOVED my Synchilla Anorak, but...unfortunately it seems there's an issue with the seam along the bottom and around the cuffs. The stitching done by the machine, while meant to be flexible, it appears that by simply putting on the fleece and pulling too hard in any direction results in a *snap* and the stitching starts to come undo... Read Morene. I brought it into my local Patagonia store and they sowed it up, no problem, but we found that this would only continue with the way this product is stitched. It seems that there are several fleeces with this sort of stitching so my guess is it's just a faulty design for this round of apparel. I was able to exchange this fleece for another one with a different edging, but I would have much preferred to keep this one.
I greatly appreciate Patagonia's policy to stand by their product and to repair as needed, but unfortunately it seems this Synchilla fleece along with others like it in stitching will continue to have issues. I certainly hope I'm the only one, but after having "gone through" two separate Synchilla Anorak fleeces like these it just seems like it's the design. Will keep an eye out in the future for another one like it, but with a better design.
I really want to love this jacket but so far I have had quality issues sadly. I first bought this in person and when I first put it on at home I noticed the bottom hem was torn about 4 inches. I sent it back and bought another one. I put my new one on and the hem on the end of my sleeve is torn and fraying off. Im really not one to complain but I w... Read Moreould think for the price I would have better luck with the quality.
I would still recommend getting this; its super cozy and warm! Hopefully I just got unlucky with the two I purchased.

Please contact our customer service [here](https://help.patagonia.com/s/) and we'll be happy to discuss options with you to get you taken care of!

Warm & well designed
This fleece pullover runs true to size. It is well made & the pockets are very handy.
So I came into the Patagonia store hoping to buy a low key fleece pullover for winter as a mid layer. What I unknowingly walked out with was the fleece of my dreams. It’s super warm, isn’t too hot, isn’t too thin, and it feels like I’m getting the biggest hug. All day. My husband joked that hugging me was like hugging a teddy bear. Y’all, I am full... Read Morey ready to embody the teddy bear energy. Hands down, no questions asked, this is the best fleece I’ve ever bought. So soft, so warm, so comfortable. It’s got a double layer of fleece around the neck and on the chest, and it honestly makes such a difference. If you’re having any second thoughts, don’t. You won’t regret it.
I bought this because I loved the way it looked online. I got it and tried it on but it was huge in the waist and arms. Be careful when ordering. I would size down. My tag says mens small and womens medium.
Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to write a product review on the Synchilla Fleece Anorak. The reason this may feel a little bit larger than previous Synchillas you may have tried on is because it is sized as Unisex. We'd be happy to assist you with a [return or exchange](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html) for a smaller size if this feels too large for you.

Super cute but not for me
I so desperately try to support such a wonderful company, but as a woman with a chest, its been hard to find anything that fits both in the chest and doesnt swallow the waist. This is super cute/retro and fit in the chest but was enormous in the arms and waist. But it is super cute if you like things baggy or for men. I sadly returned.
Had to have this as soon as I saw it. Very retro patagonia and not something Ive come across when looking at resale sites - definitely a print youd hold on to until it falls to pieces. Synchilla feel and weight but with a style twist on the anorak - love it. I typically can do either an XS or S in a synchilla and this is the same size wise in my op... Read Moreinion. Im 54 and 135lbs for reference.
I enjoy the brilliant colors, the comfortable design, and the very useful pockets. I have not had the opportunity to wear it much so far, yet I expect it will soon be one of my most frequently used fleece sweaters.
