This is a great product. I bought a couple of them for my sons. Very stylish, great fit, warm and cozy, and excellent quality material washes really nicely!
I bought this hoodie for my husband for Christmas. We're in California, but it still gets cold in the mornings. He's worn it to work when it's below freezing out and been warm and comfortable. He liked it so much I have ordered another for his father, and one for myself.
The quality of workmanship in this hooded jacket is second to none in my personal opinion. The sewing seems to be triple reinforced on all seams, it is probably three times as thick as some comparable sweat jackets. The lining is very warm and makes an excellent under layer in extremely cold conditions . It has a real metal zipper ,something that has become quite difficult to find in recent years, along with the hood being insulated with the same sherpa fleece as the rest of the jacket except the sleeves. I also agree with other reviewers regarding the sleeves they should be lined with some material or should be insulated on the inside. I wear this jacket every day around the house when I get home from work because I keep the heat low when I am gone and it is usually no more than 50F when I get home. This jacket keeps me really warm and has become a favorite. I bought it around three months ago and have washed it many times and it has maintained its shape and color quite nicely . The cuffs are also of note as they are the thickest most well sewn I have ever seen. The kangaroo pockets with ultra-soft hand warming material is also very nice. All around one of the best hooded sweat jackets you will ever find hands down no matter the cost, unless it were to be made by hand to your exact specifications which of course would cost considerably more. This jacket is a definite must have,especially in cold climates. A one of a kind by a on of a kind company. I highly recommend this jacket to everyone .Go! Get one now! Thanks L.L. Bean for another fine product.
