I am on my 3rd sweatshirt. I returned the other two because of holes in the fabric after washing. At first I thought it was our washing machine. When the second sweatshirt needed washing I took it took a laundromat for washing and the same thing happen. So I returned the items. One thing about L L Bean they do have a great warranty and gave me a refund. At some point it does get old having to return items. I hope the 3rd one works because the sweatshirt is WARM.
My high school-age son lives in this sweatshirt! It's a great product and warm and cozy, but the cuffs started to fall apart less than a year after he started wearing it. We've mended them twice, but they need it again. The rest of the sweatshirt is incredibly durable and has held up well to wear and washing.
This sweat shirt is so well built, it made my "sweat" pants feel like my oxford cloth pajamas. Does KIW have a matching Sweat Pants?? Please?? Same color??? Fit was perfect, zipper was smooth and rugged, and it has not shrunk one millimeter after two wash/dry cycles. The fleece is very comfortable. What more can I say. I will probably get KIW's zippered turtleneck sweat shirt to complete my fitness wardrobe.
This sweat shirt is a good heavy weight product, extra warm, sleeves are lined so easy on and off. however it runs small so I suggest that if you ware a large order a X Large if you are a 2XL you will be out of luck it feels like a XL.
