Amazon Essentials Standard Full Zip Sweater Reviews Summary

Sizing

Pros:

• "Clothing nowadays is frustrating as the sizes are usually smaller than they were in the past. Not the case here."
• "Bought this as a Christmas gift for my other half and it fit perfectly."
• "I am 6ft and 180 lbs, moderately fit, and the Large was a little baggier than I expected with a lot of extra room."
• "Great quality well-made sweater. I got two in XL size (navy and burgundy). I think they are running pretty much true to size."
• "As to the sizing it was very true to size."
• "It fits perfect. Sleeves are even long enough."
• "Large which is his actual size, fit just right!"

Cons:

• "It’s HUGE so if you still decide to buy or size down."
• "The sleeve length and the shoulder length are a good bit too long."
• "I ordered an XL and it's too big. A large would have been perfect."
• "The sleeves were a bit long for me."
• "Medium wasn't a fit (too tight on the arms and shoulders)."
• "Large is a little too tight but extra large is a little too loose."
• "Their medium was very small."

Material Quality

Pros:

• "Nice soft cotton, feels nice wearing inside."
• "This sweater is quite good. Seems durable and washed well."
• "Washes well, colorfast and easy to care for."
• "It's like wearing a big hug!"
• "Its held its shape and color through washes (air dry)."
• "Material seems good, hopefully it holds up with daily use and washing."
• "The Cotton Material is great, not itchy or so fuzzy that it would be a burden to wear."

Cons:

• "The fabric also feels very stiff and rough rather than the usual soft feel of cotton."
• "Kind of disappointed. The material seems droopy, resulting in a sloppy fit."
• "Material is slightly thin."
• "Very thin material. Not at all what I expected."
• "The material is very cheap and thin, and this is from the part because of the price probably, but if I knew it, I didn’t buy it even for that price!"
• "The material on the back under the armpits and sides is way to baggy."
• "The cotton is light weight and is thin, it should be thicker in a jacket."

Zipper Functionality

Pros:

• "The zipper is a metal YKK zipper and works great."
• "Zipper works well and seems well made."
• "The zipper is a good quality brass zipper that moves both ways effortlessly."
• "Quality zipper that zips up on the correct side for males."
• "Zipper works well and I like the appearance."
• "The zipper is a decent weight metal with a solid pull."
• "Loved the zipper. So much easier on old hands."

Cons:

• "Definitely do not recommend this jacket."
• "Zipper constantly getting stuck in the fabric on the back side of the zipper."
• "As others have said, terrible zipper. The cloth flap on the back of the zipper gets caught every time."
• "Fit well, nice feel, but if you can't get it zippered up easily and repeatedly it's a complete failure."
• "The zipper doesn't fit in the channel correctly and doesn't zip up."
• "THE ZIPPERS ARE FAILING ON BOTH OF THE SWEATERS I BOUGHT AND ARE NOT EVEN 3 MONTHS OLD."
• "The zippers on all three almost never function correctly."
