I really like the chocolate color and the very soft fleece, however, I was disappointed that the fleece was not included inside the arms of the hoodie, and this did make a difference in that the jacket was not as warm. It also somehow tends to "ride up" in the back.
I absolutely love my hoodie. It is not only warm but very comfortable and cozy. I sometimes wear it alone or under one of my LLBean jackets as an extra layer . It is wonderfully warm.
I ordered a size up as recommended and did not have a problem. I am 5'6" and I think the length and sleeves are just right. I especially like that the sleeves are lined with cotton and not the fleece because it makes it easier for my arms to slide in and out. The only thing I saw wrong was that the waist band is way too big even for my big belly or I would give this five stars.
I bought 5 of these hoodies last year for children and grandchildren and again this year they have asked for them again, there could be no better review than that.
