Fabric Quality

Pros:

  • "Material was quality material."
  • "Fabric is good quality sweatshirt fleece, not overly thick but not thin either."
  • "The fabric is warm, medium to heavy weight and not scratchy."
  • "The fabric is quality with a hood that is sewn together with the same material inside and out."
  • "The material is super soft and cozy and not too thick."

Cons:

  • "This thing is so much thinner than I was expecting. Low quality."
  • "The more you wash this the more pilled the inside becomes."
  • "I wore a dark shirt under this. When I removed the hoodie I was covered in TONS of fleece fibers! Definitely not good quality."
  • "It's soft and fluffy for about three wearings and then the inside starts getting balled up."
  • "The material is a little thin, and this translates into not being as warm as I would have wished."
  • "The material is thinner, and the cut is bigger and shorter."
  • "It’s meh. Not heavy, fairly thin. not soft and arms are skinny in comparison to most hoodies."

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

  • "It fits very well. I bought a medium and I normally wear size 12."
  • "This is a nice looking, nice fitting sweatshirt. It’s perfect alone or layered."
  • "The sleeve length is just right, and the cuffs have enough elastic that I can push them up while doing dishes."
  • "It is very well made and fits well."
  • "The fleece lining is very soft and it keeps me warm."
  • "I am really happy with this jacket. It is soft and a perfect fit."
  • "It fits true to size."

Cons:

Color and Appearance

Pros:

  • "Beautiful vibrant color."

  • "The beautiful nutmeg color with the name on it in pink really stands out."
  • "Love the pink/peach color."
  • "The pink is really pretty, not too bright, more like a blush pink."
  • "Color was exactly what I was looking for. I bought the olive color."
  • "I love the coral pink color, even if it is a bit brighter than I expected."

Cons:

  • "I really wanted a muted pink and this is just a little too pink."
  • "But the color “Coral Pink” is garishly ugly – it’s bordering on deer hunter orange safety clothing – ugh."
  • "Kinda disappointed I ordered pink and got sent beige."
  • "The color is what I expected, and it fits reasonably well. However, the material is a little thin, and this translates into not being as warm as I would have wished."
  • "Like the product overall except the color!!!! Photo showed Kelly green but product was more forest green. Not what I wanted!!!"
  • "Ordered this along with the bottoms in green. The color is not the bright Kelly green depicted, it’s more of a hunter green which was disappointing."

  • "While I initially liked this sweatshirt, just after a month of owning it the zipper has completely come off so now it is useless."
