We bought these hoodies for our girls last Christmas. They wear them all the time saying that they are very warm and very soft. Just right for those cold Maine Winter nights.
I now own two of these and would have one in every color if I could afford it. They are very, very warm and I find the feminine details a nice touch. I did size up from my normal size based on other reviews. I normally wear a small and have ordered a medium. The fit was perfect for wearing over a sweater or whatever. You can't go wrong.
I have 2 of these hoodies, one in tea green and the other in navy. They are extremely comfortable and wash well, and the color holds up in numerous washings.
My only caveat with this hoodie is that you will probably need to order a size up than normal because the lining inside adds bulk. So I usually take a medium, so in this hoodie I have a large.
But this hoodie is fabulous, and even my dad wants one (despite the sleeves are too short for him!) and the price really isn't outrageous, compared to other "top brands" of fleece that charge $80 or more for fleece and they probably won't be as nice as this one.
What I also like about this hoodie that I don't generally see with other fleeces are the zippered pockets. I really like having zippers so I can be sure nothing falls out.
But overall, I really like this hoodie, and even my mom and sister have a couple too! My mom loves her hoodie and calls it "The Bearskin" because it is so thick and nice to keep warm in!!
