Charles River ApparelMen's Thermal Bonded Sherpa Sweatshirt

I love the way it fits and it keeps you very warm.

Close to what was my 2 go to hoodies from Craftsman - no longer available

Arrived on time fit as expected is very good quality.

This isn't nearly as heavy and warm as I was expecting after reading reviews. When you see it has bonded Sherpa fleece as a liner it makes you think that it will have some density to it. It doesn't! I was looking for something to replace my worn out Carhart insulated hoodie but this doesn't come close.That being said, it is a nice mid-weight hoodie. It seems very well made and the fit is perfect. I am 6'3" and weigh over 300lbs. The 3XL couldn't be a better fit. It still gives me room for some underlayering without being tight anywhere. If I had use for mid-weight hoodies, I would continue buying these but, I need to get heavy-weight extra warm ones for the outside work I do farming.

I'm buying a second one to go with the grey one I bought about 6 months ago. Fleece lined all the way down the sleeves is very soft and nice. There is an extra "stash" pocket in the left hand warmer pocket. It has velcro to keep your stuff from falling out of the slash pockets, don' t remember that listed as a feature so, nice bonus. It is very watm if your are moving around, I usually have to unzip it somewhat. The zipper does stick a bit but I rubbed soap on it and it's fine now. It Does run a bit big and long but I like my sweats loose so works great for me. I like the waffle pattern and I didn't have the "picking up lint" problem some people mentioned.

Fits as marked (my comfortable size is US L), feels like good quality fabric and overall construction, hood size perfectly - not a skull cap, not a spinnaker. My only gripe comes from the UV resistance. Couple of weeks after I started wearing this without the overcoat - in NYC, mind you, not Miami or Phoenix - I noticed a slight red hue appearing on previously pitch black jacket, just like on my black baseball hat but after months of exposure. This photo-bleaching is rather disappointing. I expect I'll have a reddish-black hoodie out of this soon...

I had a magnificently thick and perfectly-fitting sherpa hoodie from Sonoma that I wore a hole through on the elbow. I loved that thing. So I went looking for an equally magnificent replacement...The Charles River hooded sweatshirt runs big. I ordered a medium, the same as my last hoodie, but it's significantly larger, with the bottom hem going 6 inches below my waistline, the sleeves about 2 inches too long, and the entire thing very baggy.The waffle-knit has a strong tendency to pick up and hold onto lint and hairs.I was hoping that the sleeves were sherpa-lined as well. They are, which is great. But the entire sweatshirt is much thinner than I was expecting. It's still warm, but not nearly as cozy as I was hoping.The zipper isn't terrible, but still isn't that smooth and regularly catches on itself. This isn't from getting caught on material, it's just not that smooth of a zipper.

So nice. I'd by another

I like how it looks and fits my husband. Other reviewers were right, that the fit is larger. So I ordered a Medium instead of a Large and it fit perfectly.

good qulaity but size was very large fit

La tela es suave, esta gruesa, es comoda y abrigadora. Esta un poco grande. Me gustó mucho, espero comprar otra pronto.

I bought one for my father, he asked me to buy another one. It's warm and not heavy. Excellent product
