Soothfeel Protection Running Outdoor Performance Reviews Summary

Fit and Sizing

Pros:

• "I ordered a small and it fits perfect (for reference I'm 5'6 122lbs athletic build with broad shoulders)."
• "The jacket fits perfectly."
• "I ordered a large when I am usually a medium. The large fits me just the way I wanted it to. Not too tight and not too loose."
• "I love everything about it, fits great and is soft and silky to touch and skin."
• "It's also soft and comfortable as nd true to size."
• "The Small size I got is just right, not too tight and not too loose."
• "I’m 5’9” with long arms and a size 14. I originally got the 2X but it was a little tight which I did not want. If that’s your style then it would fit well. But I much prefer some room in my jackets and the 3X was a dream."

Cons:

• "This product arrived stained and damp, omitting some kind of laundry detergent stain remover smell and wet spot where it was used."
• "I needed added sun protection for a recent trip so I bought two of these. I’m not sure how much protection they gave; they were so hot and not at all breathable I couldn’t wear them."
• "I did need to size up for my normal size as it fits very tight."
• "This particular brand does tend to run a little small so I would order one size up."
• "Color not as ordered. Sizing completely wrong. Ordered a size up from what I normally wear in order to layer and the fit was extremely tight even without layering."
• "The x-large fits me well at the hips but is a bit big at the shoulders."
• "Ordered this jacket a size larger, xl. My bust is 38C, this was too tight in the body with baggy sleeves!"

Material and Comfort

Pros:

• "This folds up small so can easily put it in a bag."
• "This Sun hoodie, is BREATHABLE and a must have for a hot day in strong sunshine."
• "The material is very smooth and feels cooler and not so hot under the scorching sun."
• "Its lightweight design offers comfort in hot weather while providing UPF sun protection."
• "Nice rip-stop-like textured knit fabric, cool and lightweight feel."
• "The fabric feels amazing and it appears to be well made."
• "The fabric is silky and comfortable."

Cons:

• "I like the style especially the zipper. The material doesn't wick, so it is hot to wear."
• "For me this SPF material has a heavy feeling and was not cooling."
• "It doesn’t contain some miracle thread that actually cools one."
• "The lighter colors are a bit see through and my bra shows."
• "Also is see through unfortunately."
• "The fabric was very thin. Too thin for zippers to lay nicely—or maybe just too wrinkly."
• "Fabric a little heavy for a sunny, warm, non-water activity- felt too hot and not breathable."

Design and Features

Pros:

• "I love the fit and the zipper pockets and the hood."
• "This is perfect to cover your head and not be heavy, your hands if need be too."
• "Love love love this zip up hoodie so much that I bought another one. Bonus that it is long sleeve with SPF since the sun triggers my lupus flares."
• "Beautiful color and fit with excellent neck coverage and comfortable hoodie when needed."
• "Love the zippered pockets for my phone and CC."
• "Positives: sun protection, spacious hood, thumb holes in the sleeves, four pockets."
• "I love that they have thumb holes and a hood so that it covers as much of your skin as possible, and it even has zippable pockets!"

Cons:

• "The pocket is of good size, however, the Zipper is too short resulting in a small opening."
• "Threads seem to be unraveling in the stitching around the zipper."
• "The hood and neck sections are a little awkward because the hood actually just hangs down close to my pupils and the neck section does not actually stay up because of how loose the jacket fits."
• "Great fit and very comfortable. Only complaint is that the hood is big and no way to gather it so would fall over my face."
• "I would have given this 5 stars but the sleeves on the extra-large are a bit little too long even when I have my thumbs in the sleeve holes."
• "I wanted something with a hood for sun protection... the zipper rubs in a weird way and doesn't lay flat."
• "Liked most: Style, fabric and length. What I do not like is the longevity and functionality of the product. The puller that pull the zipper up broke off."

Wrinkles and Maintenance

Pros:

• "Washed the blue one—dried on wrinkle release and it came out perfectly."
• "It washes like a dream."
• "Some people complained about the wrinkles, but a hand held portable steamers took the wrinkles right out."
• "They wash and dry without issues."
• "Washes up nicely and a short time in the dryer makes it a plus."
• "Love this - soft with UV protection and very cute."
• "And it’s virtually wrinkle-proof."

Cons:

• "Yellow-washed and dried using same procedure, but cannot get the wrinkles to come out!"
• "Washed it and the wrinkles are still in it. I'm afraid to iron because of the fabric may melt."
• "I wish I could give it 5 stars but the wrinkles are there to stay, even after one washing and laying flat to dry."
• "The reason for the 3 rating is because I cannot get the packaging wrinkles out."
• "The only negative: it was very very wrinkled when received it, and although I have washed it three times and hung it out to dry, it is still wrinkled."
• "Only downside is the fabric is quite wrinkly."
• "I love this jacket otherwise but the stubborn wrinkles from the packaging are not attractive."
