The sweatshirt is praised for its soft, warm, and lightweight fabric, as well as its versatility for various weather conditions. Customers appreciate the stylish appearance and available color options. However, some have criticized the placement and accessibility of the pockets, as well as issues with the zippers. A small number felt the fit was unflattering. Overall, the majority of customers are satisfied with the comfort, style, and quality of the product.
The BEST! I loved it so much that I bought it again in the other three colors. I will live in these for years!

Purchased two. Love the style and fit. At 5'8" the length falls at high hip. The wrist size is a little snug, but falls within my norm. Thumbholes are a plus. Feels like a sweatshi

I love the thumb holes. The color is nice too. I wish they would make a women’s cotton sweatshirt in a lightweight thinner material in assorted neutral colors.

Fit: Too large
Needed a petite but all petite unavailable so ordered an extra small regular which was too big. Hopefully petite will become available.

better-than-basic
Fit: True to size
Nice soft sweatshirt-jacket with a slimmer look than traditional, baggier sweatshirts. I even bought a second color. On the shorter side of what I prefer (I'm 5'6), it falls where

I like that this sweatshirt is lighter weight and does not have a hood. Great for cool mornings and evenings. The deep, zip-up pockets are nice. The one thing I don't like is that

I like the sweatshirt, however, the pockets could be further towards the front. They’re in an awkward spot. I do really like the longer sleeves with the thumb holes.

Warm
Fit: True to size
It's warm enough and just right on chilly mornings. Looks great and the zip pockets are perfect to stash loose change and a credit card or ID.

Buttery Soft
Fit: True to size
I love this jacket. The fabric is buttery soft,
especially the side that sits next to your skin.
I hope it washes well. If so, five stars for me!

Comfy

Love ‘em… I bought two!!
Probably should’ve ordered down a size, as I often do with Bean tops, but was under the impression this was more slim fitting. But it’s okay, as it’s now
