I have 5 fitness fleece pullovers in various colors, and I have loved every single one of them. This summer, I purchased the fitness fleece hoodie jacket when I was in Freeport. It was wonderful for the first month or so, and then it began to pill on the inside. I am very careful when washing the jacket, always on delicate, and I always hang dry the jacket. Unfortunately, the pilling is so bad right now after just a few short months that I will have to return the jacket for a refund. It doesn't look fresh and nice anymore, and I'm constantly getting fuzz all over everything I wear under the jacket. It's disappointing to find a product that doesn't last from LL Bean. I'm a frequent shopper, and rarely find an item I don't love. This jacket is not one of my favorites. The comfort fleece is a much better choice! I just ordered one, and it's much better in construction.
I bought this hoodie in black and wear it often! It's so comfortable & I love the pockets. The small pocket on the sleeve is great for carrying small things- like a key or money. It is soft, warm, and wonderful in general. Totally worth the price.
