Very comfortable layer during subzero temps/Ohio winter. Washed on delicate/cold cycle & it shed an enormous amount of fabric. I had to vacumn the inside of my washer & dryer.
This runs large and is very scratchy/itchy on the inside. The hood has a soft liner, but the rest feels like rough wool. Otherwise, it's very fashionable.
I really don’t understand all different experiences with this fleece jacket. My experience is no pilling, excellent fit and just enough warmth in winter during cold mornings at home.
It runs really, really big. Got a size small, I generally fit true smalls. The arms were like 5" too long and the torso hangs low past my butt. As for the material, it would be fine over a long sleeve but in a tshirt if the fleece itself is touching your arms it itches
I bought this fleece at the end of April last year a wore it during fall and winter - less then 6 months. It looks terrible after that short use. It is pilling everywhere. It looks like I were wearing it for 10 years. This is really too bad because it fits well and it was warm. I am surprise with the bad quality of this fleece. I have several other items of clothing by Fjallraven. They were not cheap but the quality was good. This one was quite expensive as well and its quality terrible. Quite disappointing.
Love this fleece. I bought mine before a trip to Iceland this spring. It’s cozy and extremely soft. I love the fit and the green color is perfect. 10/10. I saw some complaints about washing it. I have not had that issue but I take care of my wool clothing. I have only hand-washed it in wool wash (Australian Gold) and it’s just gotten softer. I’m normally a small in and this fit perfectly.
This fleece is absolutely perfect. I can't say enough nice things about it. It is so warm and very flattering. It is easy to clean and doesn't get weird pills or anything, it stays soft and beautiful. I have it in several colours and my husband is constantly telling me he wishes they made a mens version whenever I wear it!
I absolutely LOVE this coat. Perfect mid-weather jacket. The reason for not saying 5 stars is that the zipper is tricky to seat together to zip up. I love the leather tab, but the zipper itself is hard to get 'seated' right to zip up. It takes a few minutes to get it just right.
I bought this fleece last year and absolutely love the fit, however it has not worn well at all, the pile has gone very scruffy with bits of fibres hanging off, I am actually looking for a new fleece to replace it, but will not buy this one again.
Spent a day in Portland going to ALL the outdoor stores to find the perfect winter fleece & THIS is it! The warmth of wool, flattering fit (not another fleece cut for a man’s body) and the attention to detail cannot be beat.
