Got my Hercules Hoody today and I am 100% pleased.
Great middle layer for under my hard shell. Comfortable, soft, flattering lines- total package.
Longer shirt tail back to keep kidneys warm- great for snowboarders.
Got the Caramel at a great price- color is a warm buttery yellow/gold- not at all garish or showy.
Plenty of room in the shoulders/arm pits for broad shoulder girls and not baggy in the waist/ hips. Order up if you're between sizes and want to make sure there's room for a thicker base or merino layer.
Arms are adequately long- mine are ape like and the cuffs still brush my wrist.
Best of all it's made in Canada, not a trans-pacific sweat shop and I didn't have to warm the planet by shipping a 3 pound coat 12,000 miles.
