Love this sweatshirt - it?s true to size, quality material and construction. Unfortunately it came out of the washer with a weird shiny stain on the chest. The only thing I can think is the remnants of a Tide pod. Absolutely nothing else makes sense. It won?t come out no matter what I do however so that?s the end of that. A full star for color saturation and quality yarn. I have soaked and scrubbed and tried to attack the stain and the fibers and color haven?t budged. I came back to order another and they?re naturally sold out. I?m so sad! ??

I bought this for my wife, she likes it a lot. She said it fits well, is comfortable, and pretty warm but the fabric could be a little softer and thicker. I purchased a medium, she said it’s the perfect size to be comfy all day but not so loose that she can’t wear it out somewhere. Worth the price of admission especially on sale. Also, big shout out to my gear head Jesse Ramirez. He?s been awesome in answering all my questions about all the other gear I?ve bought from backcountry.

The first thought that came to mind when I tried on this hoody was "Wow, this is acutally built for women!" It has a very flattering cut and looks great on! I found it to be true to size and it didn't shrink or change any after washing it. I love it and the fit is even better than other women's hoodies like The North Face. Highly recommended!

Swell sweatshirt

This is a great, soft, super-warm sweatshirt. Unlike other reviewers, I didn't find that it runs too large, even though I'm a size 2/4 & ordered the small. The pink is also a lovely adobe color -- not little-girly at all. Ironically, I'm returning it only because I ordered a different style at the same time, & that one's a little more appropriate for SoCal weather. But if not, I'd definitely be snuggling with this one for years!
