All-in-one image restoration seeks a single model that can recover images degraded by diverse and spatially non-uniform corruptions. However, many unified Transformers rely on fixed patch partitioning: task/degradation condition is injected only into the backbone blocks after tokenization, leaving the embedding and reconstruction stages insensitive to local degradation variations. In contrast to previous approaches, we present Flexible Image Transformer (FIT) that explicitly models degradation awareness across the entire pipeline, from patch sampling to pixel reconstruction. Specifically, FIT employs a lightweight Degradation Encoder to predict a global degradation vector $\mathbf{g}$ and a spatial degradation map $\mathbf{M}$ from local degradation severity, which jointly condition the patch embedding and unembedding through adaptive deformation. Moreover, to improve robustness across degradation types, we introduce a task-token dropout strategy that regularizes task conditioning during training. On five standard benchmarks (BSD68, Rain100L, SOTS, GoPro, and LOLv1), FIT achieves state-of-the-art performance with 30.72 dB average PSNR on the five-degradation setting and 32.83 dB on the three-degradation setting, outperforming recent unified restoration methods by +0.5$\sim$1.1 dB. Moreover, the learned offsets provide a direct handle for visualizing degradation-aware spatial adaptation.
