I think I qualify as a fleece connoisseur owning over 50 different jackets, shirts, pants and outer garments. The fitness fleece has a very soft nap on the inner side, and it's light weight so it's great as a first layer. The colors are rich, and the fleece has not pilled after 2 years. Fit is flattering and not boxy.
I just love these! I have a couple and each of my kids have one as well. They are perfect when you want to cover up but don't want to put on a heavy jacket or sweatshirt. I would have one in every color if I could. I just wish that the full zip was priced as reasonable as the 1/4 zip.
