Size Purchased: 1X

I have this hoodie in every available color and I love them. I wish that more colors were available. The sleeves are about 1.5 inches too long, thus the 4 stars.

Seems to work for ticks
I like this shirt because the cotton content is higher than most of the insect repelling shirts I’ve found. It runs a little large but not as large as the t shirt version I had to

Great hoodie
It is a great insect deterrent. It is a little snug so go bigger in size if you like to wear loose things.

Rough fabric

Size Purchased: Small
Used for: Fishing
Fit was nice and I like the cut of the item.
The fabric though was very course. Not sure if the anti-bug treatment was the reason but I found it uncomfortable enough to not keep it
