Great Jacket to wear after a gym workout. The hood keeps you warm and protected from the elements. Very warm and comfortable jacket. The pockets could be placed better, I tend to scratch the top of my hand reaching into the pocket. Would like to see more colors. Washes up great.
I need a jacket light weight and windproof. I am 5'3" and 118 lb. Although I usually wear petite small, I got this in regular small when it was on sale. The sleeves are little bit longer for me, but rest of it fits well. It is warm at 45-50F and blocks wind well, even though it is thin. I am happy about the purchase.
I had purchased this same fleece in black, but in a Medium in Sept. 2011. I liked it but it really wasn't big enough to wear more than one layer underneath. The zipper ended up breaking so I had to return it. I ordered large and in blue(hubby didnt like being twins). I love the color and the fit.
The Wind Challenger Fleece has a short pile, but is still warm and has a little substance to it. Getting it in a hoody version is perfect for my upcoming trip when I will be outside on chill mornings. The nave with the lighter blue trim makes a versatile combo with jeans, cords, or whatever.
