The better sweater has been my go to do everything fleece since I was about 7. It works for just about everything I do here in bend (when weight isn’t a concern). I love how versatile it is and how compact it is when layering for stuff like resort skiing. If you haven't had one before the only thing I would warn you about is that wind easily gets through the knit of the jacket, so if you are using it somewhere with lots of wind factor windchill into what you have planned.
You were almost the only vendor in the USA who had this. And NO TAX or SHIPPING COST. National customer service for Patagonia said my color and size was sold out nationwide, but you had one left.

bluesign® System
Every textile Patagonia uses is the result of a complicated manufacturing process, making it difficult for them to evaluate all the raw materials, dyes and chemical auxiliary materials each of their suppliers use. bluesign® technologies, based in Switzerland, helps with this analysis, working at each step in the textile supply chain to assess and approve chemicals, processes, materials and products that are safe for the environment, workers and customers.
Recycled Polyester
An important fiber in Patagonia's line, polyester allows them to build lightweight materials that dry quickly and can be used in a variety of applications, including trail-running tops and yoga tights. Polyester also blends well with natural fabrics like cotton. But virgin polyester is derived from petroleum, which comes at a high environmental cost.
