This jacket is my favorite of all time, even thought it's on the expensive side. Soft on the outside and amazingly plush on the inside. I love the soft chocolate brown color I bought, and I'm glad I ordered a size up (as recommended by many buyers.) Fits just a little loose that way, which is just how I like it. No, there are no drawstrings for the hood, the fleece doesn't extend into the sleeves (initially a disappointment, but I got over it), and the cuffs aren't very snug, but I stay plenty warm, and it's so comfortable. Washes beautifully (I've washed it a number of times with no discernible fading and no pilling at all) Since I wear it every day at work (and on cool/cold days at home), I just used my birthday money and ordered the elderberry and cirrus blue colors so I don't have to wear the same color all the time. I can't wait for them to arrive. I highly recommend this jacket!
This is one of the best fleeces I've purchased. I wore it everyday on our 4 day camping trip to Acadia. It was very warm and comfortable. It's great that it has a hood with soft lining and the side pockets zip to keep valuables safe.
