Cons:

• "Only real issue I have is that it runs much SMALLER."
• "Great quality but its smaller than expected."
• "I did find it fit more snuggly than k was expecting given the fact I ordered a 5T for my 2 year old…he’s a big kid but also I think it runs a little small."
• "All the buttons came off the first time I wore the jacket."
• "Omg it’s too small. I’m so disappointed. Can’t believe how small it’s."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

• "Has held up wonderfully through the wash."
• "I have washed it at least 5 times and it looks as good as it did the day I got it."
• "It has a good zipper that works easily and it doesn't shrink when you wash it."
• "The best part- the zippers work smoothly!"
• "Very good quality!"
• "Sturdy material as so far it has held up to frequent washing given my not so neat little guy."
• "The fleece is thick and washes well."

Cons:

• "However, it does not have an extra lining to prevent the winds or a lower temperature."
• "FYI - the pockets do not have zippers."
• "The way that the tag is sewn onto the vest leaves a kind of jagged edge, making it very uncomfortable!"
• "I loved this vest, it was perfect for my son. Unfortunately after just 2 weeks of wear, the bottom seem holding the trim piece is completely unraveled."
• "Bummed out because my son likes to keep ‘treasures’ in his pockets and likes to have a zipper to keep them safe- so bummed it didn’t have the stated zippered pockets."
• "But after only a handful of warnings, the edging along the bottom began to detach from the vest."
• "This is a little below my expectations. My previous items from this brand was over my expectations and I was expecting the same for this."

Design and Style

Pros:

• "Saw this and thought it would be perfect for my “all boy” grandson. It’s not heavy so it’ll be good for cool weather and he can wear a thicker top under it for more chilly weather. Looks so cute with his little coon-skin hat!"
• "The design was so cool and trendy, that I got this vest for my daughter."
• "Very nice material. Will be great for our family pics."
• "Navy blue fleece vest. Zips up. Very soft and fuzzy and warm. Nice deep color that looks a little boyish but could technically be unisex."
• "This Amazon Essentials Boys' Polar Fleece looks dapper when worn by the grandson for whom we acquired it."
• "This fleece vest is great. Love the feel, color combination and fit on my 11 year old son."
• "Advertised as boys vest but can be for girls, too."

Cons:

• "Bought my daughter a size S fleece vest in girls dept. It looks good on her when she stands but when she sits down, the vest is too short in the back."
• "The blue stripe on collar is a bright blue and this should be considered when purchasing."
• "I found the length of the vest to be a little on the shorter side, meaning it will always allow the bottom of any or most shirts come out of the bottom hem which can take away points for style."
• "The color is not my taste but the vest is fine."
• "Does not look cheap just a bit off on the design cut."
• "Maybe I was just unlucky, as I didn’t get the same vest in the photo."
• "Size is wonderful and the fabric is soft. They sent the wrong one. We ordered red and received the red checkered one."

Comfort and Practicality

Pros:

• "It’s light but keeps you warm."
• "Love this vest. Exactly what I was hoping for. Good thick fleece."
• "They add a lot of warmth without a lot of bulk."
• "It keeps him very warm."
• "This vest is good for fall and is lightweight. It runs true to size."
• "It is very soft and warm, the zipper is simple and the navy blue goes with almost everything."
• "It is soft and warm, perfect to wear underneath a jacket or just over a shirt if it's not that cold."

Cons:

• "cannot compare to Columbia or Patagonia fleece but it is good enough for use around the house, as an additional layer under a winter jacket, etc."
• "It doesn’t seem like it's that warm but a nice accompaniment to an outfit and would add another layer of clothing for warmth in temperatures that are not frigid."
• "One important thing to note - this is not truly a heavyweight vest."
• "However it is not very soft."
• "This vest is exactly what we needed for our toddler! It’s not the softest fleece, but isn’t uncomfortable by any means."
• "The material is recycled polyester so it isn’t the softest but it doesn’t bother him."
• "Looks good in person and seems to be decently made for the low price. It was small though."
