Gear of the Week: Patagonia Upslope Hoody

This comfortable piece can serve a number of purposes. 

Throw on this soft, fleece hoody to ward off post-run AC chills, sunburn shivers and cool evening breezes. It breathes, wicks and dries quickly enough to take you straight from sweaty mess to a post-run coffee stop. The technicality combined with roomy pockets and a generous hood amped the coziness factor, and made this an instant favorite. Even better, as summer turns to fall, the Upslope can transition from lightweight jacket to an insulating layer for cold-weather running.

Price: $159
