Disappointed

Ranked #3163 - Men's Fleece Jackets

I agree with all of the others when they say it is the softest jacket they have ever felt and it is! Although the fit is what did not work for me. I am 6'1" 220lbs and a XL with usually fit me well, although the XL in the Monkey Man jacket was tight, especially around the arm pits and chest area. I see others have complained about this also. I up sized it to a XXL and the arm pits fit well, but everything else was way too big and I was looking for a mid layer to go under my shell. Unfortunately I had to return the XXL and I am still searching for the right mid layer. I loved the jacket, the warmth and breathability, it would make for a great mid layer if it would fit, VERY disappointed!!
