Is it better or is it the best?
I'm talking about the Better Sweater full zip jacket made by Patagonia clothing.
Things must return to simplicity...
The Patagonia Better Sweater is, was, will be a better sweater regardless of who you compare it against. I have one from 2010 and 2015. There doesn't seem to be much of a difference between the versions but the newer sweater collar has been raised and a chest pocket added. To make it the best sweater the collar needs to be lowered again. Keeping the chest pocket is a must. Miss the pocket on the old one but prefer the low collar.
This is a great piece to take traveling, throw over a collared shirt on a casual evening or wear over a base layer if you want to go get radical.
The sweater is so nice though that you won't want to get it too dirty...
Lifetime guarantee from Patagonia means you don't have to worry about it too much though!
