I love this hoodie, the fit is nice, the sleeves are great as I am taller with long arms. I wish it was cut a little more Athletic as I am thinner and a bit of air can work its's way up from the bottom keeping things cool.

Great fit!

Great Material, Jacket Lacks Features

The material of this jacket is surprising warm for it's thickness. I like the feel and I think it will resist snagging and pilling, but I'm not sure. Sizing was tricky for me - I'm often right between medium and large in jackets. I have long arms so larges often provide the sleeve length I need but leave the jacket loose around my body. I'm 6', 193 lbs and I ordered a large. It fits OK and would easily go over a midweight sweater or fleece but isn't an athletic fit. I might have been happier with a medium as these jackets have longer sleeves. I like the cut of the hood because it will go over a watchcap. I don't think it would go over a climbing helmet. I also like the length - it's a moderately long jacket and keeps my back covered when I bend over. Three things I don't like about the jacket: The cuffs don't have elastic and they aren't adjustable so they stay open more than I like. There are no drawstrings at the bottom, nor midbody, nor hood. There are only the two handwarmer pockets.

Great quality but bulky sleeves and hood

I like the quality of the jacket and feel very comfortable. However, the sleeves are long and bulky. In addition the hood is a little bit big. As a result, I have to return it.
