• "Well made, but runs quite small."
• "Very good heavyweight material. But XL size was so HUGE (as large as XXL) that I had to return it."
• "This sweater is just little big so I would go down a size."
• "Doesn’t last long. I sized up for an oversized look and it looked pretty good. Disappointed in how fast it became worn out."

Material Quality

Pros:

Cons:

• "There is a loose thread trying to unravel from the right shoulder where it meets the arm after being washed 3 times."
• "Just took it out of the package and it has a lot of fuzz balled up that is stuck to the sweater."
• "Only negative is that it produces the little Kent balls all over after first and every wash making sweater looked worn down."
• "After only a few days it was starting to pill and collect debris."
• "Gave it a few washes and has left me unsatisfied it just got all gross and the cotton just kept getting stuck on the sweater."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "The best part about it is it fits the same as any other $40-$90 sweatshirt but its only $13!!"

• "For the $9 I paid it was definitely worth it."

• "It is a typical sweater but is really only good for one use."
• "You get what you pay for I guess."
• "Seems thin or very lightweight for a sweatshirt as well."
• "My sweatshirt shrunk down a size & now doesn’t work for my needs."
• "The price is right Only the body seems to be to wide. under the arms and across the shoulders."
