Best "Sweatshirt" out there...

Ranked #1641 - Men's Fleece Jackets
March 30, 2010
I keep calling it a jacket even though it's a "sweatshirt." It is comfortable, soft and cozy to wear. I've had it for a day or so, but I could see myself wearing this around the lodge on the colder winter days, on the slopes in the early/late season and maybe even around the campfire while camping up in the mountains during the summer.
Some of you have requested comments on the fit/sizing. I am 6'0-6'1 and 210 with a slight pooch but still athletic (like most American guys right?) and the XL fits me very comfortably. I feel that I can wear a good fleece pullover underneath and still not feel too restricted. I am a 42L in suit jackets and the sleeves on the XL work great for me. Not too long but definitely not short. As for the length, it's just right for me as well, I have a normal length torso and it stops just below my waist.
Overall, I am thoroughly satisfied with this "sweatshirt" and feel like I will be wearing it as much as my Arcteryx Hercules...maybe....that is still my absolute favorite, but this will be up there.
