My go-to jacket!!! I have one of these hoodies, and 3 of the full zip ones in various colors and have had them for several years. They still look great, and go from suitcase to carry-on to daypack without wrinkling. I love it to ward off the air-conditioning of airplanes. I have taken them on cruises to warm (hot) countries and to Alaska, New England and Europe. They are great for layering yet are suprisingly warm alone, but not overwhelming hot ...don't know how they do that, but it's the most versatile jacket I own. The fit is flattering and I throw one on over my shortsleeve workout top when heading to the gym and keep it on through my warmup...perfect! I cannot say enough good things about this jacket!! Wish I could afford one in ever color!
These hoodies are as soft as the pullovers; they are also so comfortable. To keep them looking good for a long time, I wash them on delicate cycle with Woolite and inside out. I then hang them to dry. DO NOT hesitate to buy this jacket.
I bought this not too long ago and it already looks worn out. It became matted and ratty looking after just a wash or two. In comparison, my husband still has an LL Bean fleece from college (10 plus years old) that is still not matted or pilly. This one is not worth it. Not the same old LL Bean quality anymore.
I bought the deep red fitness fleece in x-small (I'm 5'3 and 100lbs) and it still have extra room for some layer...although it is thin but it is soft, cozy and lightweight...I love it and it is good as a layer...
