Notes: A rare vintage Patagonia Retro Pile Cardigan from 1991 in good preowned condition with signs of heavy wear.
“Like our old, classic Pile Jacket, Baby Retro has become a tour-season staple for mountaineers. Baby Retro is a total-package insulating layer- the best such system ever developed for wet conditions. The inner surface is a Capilene® mesh that quickly wicks moisture away from the body into the outer layer (quarter-inch polyester pile). Using brushed mesh makes for a soft garment and its small holes trap warm air. Baby Retro's furry side is turned out so that moisture wicks through the Capilene fibers to the tips of the pile's outer hairs where it can evaporate. Or, if it's frozen, it can be shaken out or brushed off” (Patagonia, Fall 1991).

Please carefully review product descriptions, photos, and measurements before purchasing to ensure a proper fit and satisfaction. Please note that items for sale are vintage/pre-owned in nature, with most being previously worn. Each garment is carefully inspected during the listing process for imperfections/flaws which are then photographed and/or noted in the item's description. See the “Condition Ratings” tab for more information.
Please refer to the measurements included in the description to ensure a proper fit, as vintage sizing frequently differs slightly from modern sizing.
