Awesome Jacket
I bought this as a gift for my fiancee, because she wanted a warm wind proof fleece that doesn't collect dog hair. It delivers on all fronts. It is extremely warm and windproof, and you cannot see any of our Australian Shepherd's hair on the fleece (Natural/Mushroom Brown color). A note on size, my fiance is 5'4" 125 with an athletic build. I bought her the small, and it fits perfect. As most of the reviews state it is snug, but there is plenty of room for a base layer (e.g., mid-weight capiliene). If you plan on anything bulkier you might want to size up.

Love it in off white!
I had been coveting this jacket in off-white color for 2 years. And when I saw it on Altrec.com on sale, I was ecstatic. I bought the jacket in Small and Medium,; kept the Medium even though they both fit nicely (but differently). The medium allows me to wear more layers underneath. The only problem I have is that the botton of the jacket does ride up a bit. But not too big a concern.

Very pleased
I bought the vest first, and was extremely happy with it. I'm 5'2", and 120 lbs, so I bought the small. Perfect fit, very snug (good thing I'm flat chested). I bought the jacket next, in a medium. The combo is just right, and I'm very pleased with the fit. Light weight, yet very warm, this was a good purchase.

Retro X Jacket
Awesome jacket. I wear mine almost everyday. Yes, it has a stiffer material on the inside, but I wear mine as both a jacket and a sweatshirt and it is super cozy! Love the slim fit and color selection. Will be buying a second one shortly. Great quality that will last for years to come.

A must have jacket for outdoors women
I purchased this jacket for my wife who spends a good deal of time in the outdoors. Besides fitting perfectly this jacket is perfect for those cool breezy spring or fall days and is perfect for layering in colder temps. A typical Patagonia product, made to last,look good and keep you comfortable in almost any conditions.

Classic, Warm, Flattering Fit
Another positive review for the Patagonia Retro Jacket! The fit is flattering - not boxy at all. The jacket can feel a little stiff, but I got this to help block wind, so I knew this would not be a super soft fleece from the start. I get cold easily, but this jacket keeps me warm enough with just a lightweight shirt on underneath when temperatures hover around the 50's. I'm 5'5 and 105 pounds and went for the Extra Small. It is a trimmer fit, but I could put two thin layers on underneath the jacket. Sizing all depends on how you like your fit and how you will wear it. Size up if your planning on wearing anything bulky under it. I liked it so much, I have it in three different colors.

Great jacket. Windproof, light, warm and nicely fitted. I had one 20 yrs ago, and this version is an improvement. Glad I bought two! I agree that it's a slim cut, so do size up. I'm 5' 8", 120 lbs and the medium fit perfectly. This is a keeper.

great jacket
Gets the job done - windproof and warm, without being bulky. The texture of the fleece is woolly, and it is NOT attracting dog fur - amazing!! I do wish it had a "napoleon" pocket, though. I'm 5'2'' 112 lbs, and in between XS and Small. I bought the small to accommodate several layers when it is wicked cold, and it is quite roomy, but not overly bulky.

Simply the best fleece.
I loved this jacket so much I recently purchased another! Just for color options :) It blocks the wind, is super warm, and the nylon panels make it feel much less bulky than other fleece jackets I have. Typical high-quality piece from Patagonia. (Note for dog owners: All colors look great covered in dog hair!)

Love it!
I love my new jacket. It keeps me warm both in the woods and in the city. It is a nice light weight fleece with a slim fit and a high collar. I previously owned a North Face Denali jacket that was too boxy and got stretched out after a year or so. I only wish that this Patagonia jacket had arm-pit vents, but over all it is a great little fleece.

Great quality and warm.
This is my second Retro X jacket. I have the purple one, also. The construction is good. After several washings the original fit holds. The jacket is warm. It is good for layering with my shell. I also wear it along out and about a lot. The sleeves are a little long; I am 5 ft 4 in.

LOVE THIS FLEECE!!!
This jacket is warm and extremely comfortable. I am a size 10 and bought the XL because I am a "layer person" and do not like a snug fit. First I bought the jacket in black and loved it so much I bought the Natural/Mushroom Brown. Depending on any "too good to pass up sales" that Altrec offers, I have not given up on the idea of purchasing another in one of the other colors for spring wear. I read another review indicating this jacket was preferred over the NorthFace Denali - I wholeheartedly agree. Thank you Altrec for offering this great item at a competitive price!

Keeps me warm and fits great too!
This is the best fleece jacket I've ever owned. Living in Norway, I always need an extra layer to keep the wind out and the warmth in- this jacket delivers. Fits well- I am a US 2/4 and own both a M and Sm in this jacket- Med is better for layering, but the Small gets plenty of use too, and I like the way it contours the waistline. Very flattering. Meget fint! (that's norwegian for VERY NICE!)

Cute and Funtional
I am a size 4, and usually wear a small in Patagonia tops. I originally ordered the small, which provided a nice snug fit. However, I found that the sleeves and the torso on the small were a little short. (I'm not a tall person - 5'4"). I exchanged for a medium and I'm much happier with it. While it's not as form-fitting, it is a little longer and doesn't ride up if I'm riding a bike, climbing, etc. The lupine color is gorgeous, and the cut is flattering. This jacket has a really nice windproof layer on the inside, and soft cookie monster fuzz on the outside. I love it. It's definitely worth the price, as every Patagonia piece I own is VERY high-quality and made to last a lifetime. I would highly recommend this jacket for when you need something warmer than your traditional fleece.

toasty toasty!
Bought the woman's in Lupine and am very pleased. I also own two Arc'Teryx Coverts and this is much warmer, and provides better wind protection. It is less form fitting (more bulky I guess than the Coverts) but really quite attractive. I put it on when I am really cold. True to size. I wore it every day the first two weeks, I was so happy with it! Thanks!

Patagonia Retro-X jacket
First of all, I was first interested in a North Face jacket BUT I really don't like to wear clothes I see everyone else wearing, especially when the wearers are teens! So, I saw a review on Patagonia Retro-X, then looked for more. Almost all were positive. Based on these reviews (and the great price I found on Altrec) I ordered a XS jacket. I'm sooo pleased. I'm 4'11" and a size 2-4. The XS small fits fine - I was worried because I do have hips! To give you a heads up - the material of a retro-x is sheep like (I find I like this look now because I needn't worry about clinging pet hair like my daughters do with their North Face Denali jackets.) The retro-X is more form fitting than a North Face Denali jacket. Also, it's wind resistant! I was in a northeastern this past weekend and wore my jacket under a peacoat that I left opened - no chill wind! One thing I'd like to see - a bigger variety of colors.

Great structure
I have a North Face Denali jacket and this jacket is much better. This jacket has a mesh liner inside and its structured better, feels more like a jacket than a fleece. The fleece is sheep-like. I ordered a medium and I'm around a women's 4/6 and it fits perfectly. I am going to have this jacket for a long time.

All that I hoped for
I've wanted a patogonia synchilla jacket since my college days in Boston. Back then I couldn't justify over $150 for a fleece jacket. But I'm glad my husband can! Just got it for Xmas and I LOVE IT! Immediately you can tell the difference in the quality, durability, and style. Size-wise, I say it fits true to size for clothing (typically jackets run larger, so in that case it does run smaller) I typically wear size S and M, but wanted a fitted look with this jacket so a size S is perfect. I don't intend to layer alot. It's an awesome jacket that's worth the money!

Very flattering fit
I bought a medium and it fits me properly - I normally wear size 4 tops, so definitely order a size up. Fleece is too snug to really wear a bulky sweater underneath - fits better with thinner top layers. But it's such a flattering, slim fit - a welcome change in the land of fleece jackets!

I LOVE this jacket. The shade of green is just right, and it is extremely cozy! Its size is a true fit, and it was the envy of the counselors at a camp out in inner Mongolia. It blocks out the wind and looks much, much better than the North Face or Mountain Hardware fleece jackets.

This is a great fitting, warm jacket that is very lightweight. I agree that the size runs slightly on the smaller side and I would suggest ordering one size up. Order a darker color so you don't have to wash it as often! I have the cream colored jacket and have had to wash it several times. After a few washes it gets kinda fuzzy but still remains warm.

Great Vest, Sweet Fit
I love Patagonia, and even have this jacket in a men's small that I ordered several years ago before they made a women's version ... the fit is variable with the women's Patagonia stuff, depending on the year ... some of the other reviews say this fit is too snug or cut too narrowly ... I say, NOT!!! ... I usually wear a large due to my broad shoulders and I have plenty of room in this jacket ... I want to order the vest in the women's Retro-X, but I will order a medium, since Patagonia says the vest cut is regular vs. the "slim" cut of this jacket ... I do love the women's styling and cut ... and thank you Altrec for the fast and free shipping!!!

MY FAVORITE JACKET!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this jacket! It blocks the chilly wind and keeps my warmth in. I can't say that I agree that it runs small...I wear a medium (I'm 5'8" and a lean 130lb) and it fits very well--not boxy but trim. I can wear a Duofold base and Icebreaker mid-weight comfortably underneath. It is not stretchy like the Patagonia R4 (another awesome jacket), but the same type fit--the pockets are more casually located on the Retro-X. I can't rave enough about this jacket...I even bought one for my 5 yr old son. I like to know how warm his jackets are keeping him :)

The Best Fleece On the Market!
This fleece is the best fleece I have ever purchased. It has a great slim fit and keeps me so warm! The only negative I would have to say about this fleece is that it runs a bit small. If you want it to be form fitting and don't intend on putting layers underneath of it, go with your normal size. If you want it to be roomy rather than snug, go for a size up. Whatever you do, enjoy! It is a fantastic purchase!

Good construction, odd color
I am 5'6", 130lbs. and I bought the medium. It fit well, even roomy enough for a sweater underneath. I have fairly long arms, and the sleeves were plenty long on the jacket. I am small chested, and narrow in the trunk. I returned the jacket because the mushroom/brown color was so unflattering. It looks a lot like sheep skin.

does exactly what it says.
I always like Patagonia stuff for performance, so didn't hesitate with this. For me personally, this was a little too stiff, but if you want to have a dual purpose single garment, it truly is perfect for wind in early spring and late fall. Also for cross country.

Long and lean
For windblocking this is a great fleece. And I really like the Pale Blossom color I purchased--kind of a cross between a light pink and a lilac--a different but attractive color. This is cut leaner than most fleece jackets, in my opinion. The jacket design is great except for I would change two things slightly: I would change the interior color of this jacket to make it closer to the outside color of the jacket and I would make the fleece smoother on the outside. I hear that the pile of the fleece is what determines it warmth, however, so maybe changing the look of the fleece would make it less warm, and that would not be good. Overall, a great purchase and the fleece I grab on windy, colder days.

Warm, Great Style & Fit
I love this jacket.. the color (natural) is perfect; a warm natural color - and the style is very cool. It's definitely fitted. It does have a stiff mesh lining so its not "cozy" on the inside. But it cuts the wind and I wear it almost daily!

nice
Having read the reviews, I bought a size S and M (I usually wear small). The small fits very well - no need to go up a size. I like the look and it's warm, but it's also very stiff, not soft as I expected.

Nice Fleece
This fleece is put together really well. Keeps me warm on a crisp fall day. It has really nice seams around the zippers and corners. The material is very soft and does not make your hair freak out with static ( if you have longer hair)! It is form fitting and runs on the small side, which is nice because so many fleeces are so bulky.

stiff and crunchy
I got this jacket b/c it was on sale and I plan on using it next winter. The big thing I notice about this jacket is the inside feels stiff. It's not a soft and cozy fleece, so if that's what you like, dont buy this. The lining is made with some harder type polyester to probably block out the wind. It will probably take a little getting used to before I can really enjoy wearing it.

Nice fleece but fabric too stiff
This fleece runs smaller and is not very flexible, I had trouble zipping it over my chest even though I bought size larger. Arrived very quickly.

not what we hoped for
Like others said, it runs small, or is just too fitted to wear over much of anything. My daughter is a size 8-10 so we sized up and ordered a large. It is unusual & cute, fits great over a t-shirt. It seems like it would be warm, it is fluffy but it is stiff not soft. Since even the large does not leave room enough to layer a college hoody underneath it is going back. It is attractive on though.

Poor fit
Very pretty and soft, but irregular. The left arm fits great, but the right arm is so high under the armpit that I can't stand it. Took it off and inspected it - appears that the right sleeve is actually about 1" smaller and higher sewn than the left! Will be exchanging - hopefully can get a small that is cut right. The medium is very comfortable, but hubby says it looks too big.

Weird fit
Wonderful,soft plush material but very unflattering fit; North Face fits closer to the body and for the money, is a much nicer jacket. The Expresso color was just awful. This was one of the very, very few items I've ever had to return to Altrec; love the website.
