Patagonia Natural Blend Retro Cardigan Sweater in Burnished Red
Meet the Patagonia Natural Blend Retro Cardigan — a cozy, heritage-inspired fleece designed for cool-weather layering and everyday wear. With its high-pile texture and classic outdoor styling, this full-zip cardigan blends recycled polyester and recycled wool to deliver dependable warmth with a lighter environmental footprint. Key Features: • High-pile fleece made from a recycled polyester and recycled wool blend • Full-zip cardigan design with an internal wind flap to help block chilly drafts • Two zippered handwarmer pockets plus a zippered chest pocket for small essentials • Y-Joint sleeves allow a full range of motion through the shoulders and arms Fabric & Feel: The Natural Blend Retro Cardigan is made from a warm high-pile fleece fabric composed of 77% recycled polyester and 23% recycled wool in solid colorways (printed versions use a similar recycled blend). The combination creates a soft, textured fleece that feels plush and insulating without being overly heavy, making it ideal for layering on cold days. Why It’s Good: • Recycled polyester reduces dependence on virgin petroleum-based materials. • Recycled wool helps divert textile waste while maintaining natural warmth and breathability. • Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory, helping support fair wages and better working conditions for garment workers. Fit & Care: Regular fit designed for easy layering over tees, flannels, or lightweight sweaters. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat to dry to maintain the fleece texture. Style Notes: The retro fleece texture gives this cardigan a timeless outdoor feel. Wear it zipped with denim and boots for everyday cold-weather comfort, or layer it over a flannel or hoodie for extra warmth on travel days, hikes, or casual weekends.
