There once was a time I was cold.
Aside from the vida pro trousers I think this is a perfect investment for winter hikes and bushcraft. I wore this on a winter hike in the cold wet north woods and it kept me warm and was highly functional. I wore it paired with a merino wool long sleeve and it worked like a charm. My only complaint is that they don’t have other colors in the size of mine. I would purchase more. If you see other reviews on this talking about the improved fit. I’m a larger guy, 6’4, 250lbs aside from hiking, eating is another favorite hobby of mine and this fleece fits me perfectly and is form fitting well. There once was a time I was cold. Not anymore though.
The Perfect Midlayer
As the title suggests, this genuinely is the perfect middle layer. There’s nothing I could possibly conceive of to make this better. It’s that simple. Everything is just so carefully thought through. The choice of materials (wool/poly blend), the tight moisture wicking fit, and the aesthetic (including the colour, I got a dark navy fleece), are in my view, all sublime. I practice minimalism, and therefore prefer to pick articles of clothing with great durability and versatility, hence the reason I went for the Keb fleece. It is just as suitable in nature, as it is around town.
Overall, great fit and function! However...
I have the Keb fleece hoodie in both Deep Forest and Black. A very warm and comfortable fleece. The Deep Forest has been bomb-proof - three years of general wear, hiking, moose hunting, etc. Looks great as a casual piece, too. The Black hoodie, however, at just over a year old, has let me down in the cuffing around the end of the sleeves on multiple occasions. I've had to repair the cuff on each sleeve a couple of times. For a hoodie at this price point, I hoped for a little more consistency regarding durability. If you get lucky, you're gonna have a great long-term piece of kit. If you're unlucky, well, you pay a fairly high price for a piece that's still mostly great, but you may have to repair on occasion.
Best technical hoodie of all time
Arguably my favorite Fjallraven piece out there, this hoodie is perfect for just about any situation. Performs very well as a top or mid layer. You can wear it comfortably on mild/cooler days, or it acts as a perfect mid layer for skiing or any other alpine related activities for that matter. The waxed canvas patches on the shoulders, and overall composition of the hoodie, give it a good amount of water repellency. I sized up one size, since the fabric has a decent amount of stretch to it and sits a little closer to your skin than a traditional hoodie.
Love the improved fit
I bought this fleece 2 winters ago and I loved it but it was too tight around the arms and chest. I pretty much had to use it as a base layer as even a shirt made it uncomfortably tight. I'm a large in everything, XL is too big. I saw online "improved fit" so I stopped in at a store in Cambridge, MA and tried it on and was super happy about the fit. It's now a mid-layer like it's supposed to be. I'm very happy as I had to give my other one away to my nephew.
Amazing Fleece
I picked this up because I needed an active fleece that could wick moisture. After testing in 20 degree F weather, it held up well just standing around and was comparable to a Patagonia Better Sweater. For active use, it has no comparison. I summited Mt Washington in the winter with this, and barely needed anything else. The weather was 20 degrees. I wore only this the majority of the day besides adding a light jacket for some windy sections. I was amazed how it wicked moisture when I started sweating, but also kept me warm when we were in the snow and wind. Sizing: I am 5'11 and roughly 170 with a slim athletic build. The large is pretty great, with good sleeve length, and the hood fits well and provides protection. I would say it is slightly tight around the shoulders. If you wear a heavy long sleeve shirt underneath, maybe size up.
Very practical, great quality
As the owner of 5 or 6 Fjallraven raven tops of various types, this one is the one I use the most. It's very comfortable a great mid layer for those harsher weather days, or as a top layer in the not so bad days. It looks great & this is after owning one for 3 years now. The reason I'm here again is to purchase another in a different colour. As usual the quality is top notch. As the saying goes you only get what you pay for.
Excellent but not cosy
A beautifully made top that feels soft to touch. It is tight but stretchy enough to be comfortable. People say to size up but be aware fjallraven arms are very long. The sleeves are tight at the cuff so this isn’t as much of an issue as on their other tops when sizing up. Good pockets, looks super in the dark navy. BUT don’t buy it thinking it is ‘warm’ as so many reviews tell you. Of course it is warm if your generating heat, but it is useless as a cosy fleece when you are still. Fair enough it isn’t advertised as wind protection, and this is also true, what little warmth you generate is lost immediately in a cold wind as it cuts straight through. Great for layering when outside, and for looking cool and sporty in a warm indoors space, but not for wearing in in a cold room, or siting waiting for the bus. Very desirable top as long as you know it’s not warm.
High Quality Garment!
I bought two of these. The first was green and was purchased in 2021. The second was black and was purchased in 2023. Both will be in my wardrobe for many years to come! This being said, after a half year of owning the black version I have noticed that the wear is considerably higher, even with greater care taken on this garment. I’m still satisfied but wonder if perhaps the blend changed over the last two years?
Performs as Suggested
Finally had a chance to try my new Keb Fleece Hoodie and it was exactly what I was hoping for. It kept me warm and was comfortable. Because of the smooth outside surface, it was easy to wear an outer layer (puffy jacket) without a struggle to get it on. The hood helped me as well to keep the weather out. Good choice!
