Not your usual fleece

By 1000-oaks Ranked #125 - Men's Fleece Jackets February 6, 2012

Just got my dark green Stormur in a size large, which I expected to be a little big on me at 5'9"/168 lbs. Isn't big at all, in fact it's almost too small - the sizing is certainly meant for skinny guys. The articulated sleeve length is perfect (I wear a 16.5/32 dress shirt), which is odd becuase large jackets are usually too long in the sleeve for me. The length is great, but the jacket could be bigger across the upper back - it's a big tight if I hold my arms out straight in front of me. The color is fantastic and the design is very trick (Euro reverse zipper), though I wouldn't take it on a hiking trip due to the suprising weight. It's definitely not a lightweight fleece, and is indeed a jacket. The Polartec WindPro Highloft fleece is a new one for me; it's a tight weave on the outside but like a shag carpet on the inside. Lots of static putting it on and taking it off, but a static spray may take care of that. Will probably keep it.
