CarharttWomen's Hoodie

I was looking for a good, simple black hoodie to replace one that I lost and tested four different ones on Amazon:Carhartt Women's Clarksburg Full Zip Hoodie - $49.99CLOVERY Women's Casual Zip-up Hoodie Basic Long Sleeve Hoodie - $26.99MAJECLO Women's Slim Fit Casual Full-Zip Hooded Lightweight Long Sleeve Sweatshirt - $22.95Starter Women's Zip-Up Hoodie, Amazon Exclusive - $15.99I didn't like Hanes' jersey hoodie because it was too thin and flimsy. All the hoodies are size small, black.Out of the four hoodies, I like Carhartt the best. It's a nice, thick material that will keep me warm. The zipper is metal and sturdy. It also has metal grommets on the holes for the hoodie strings (though the ends are fastened with plastic tips). The kangaroo pockets are big and deep. Two things I don't really like are the price point (compared to the other hoodies), and the zipper pull is a bit big.Clovery is my second choice because it's pretty good quality for the price. It's a bit thin for what I want but great for those who want something light but not "t-shirt thin" like the Hanes hoodie. It's really soft and fits pretty well. The hood is the best out of the four because it actually covers your head without tugging up on the shoulders. It actually extends a bit to shield your face too. What I don't like is the hoodie string, since the ends are just tied in a knot, not sewn or fastened by any coverings like the other hoodies. I also don't really like the zipper pull since it clacks against the zipper and makes a bit of noise when I move around. The kangaroo pockets are big, but so are the openings so I'm wary that things might fall out easily.Majeclo is probably my least favorite out of the four because it's thinner than I like (though still a little thicker than Hanes) and it doesn't fit very well. It's really soft, which is nice, but that's also because of the thinness. The hoodie string has metal fasteners on the ends, which is nice compared to the other four. The kangaroo pockets have the same problem as the Clovery hoodie—big openings that your stuff may fall out of.Starter comes in third place as the cheapest of the bunch. It's made of thick material so you can stay warm during evenings (which was my biggest priority). Hoodie strings are nearly sewn at the ends. It is definitely smaller than the other four though so you can't really wear anything thicker than a t-shirt underneath. It suits shorter torsos. I don't like the hood since it's also really small and tags on the shoulders the most compared to the other hoodies. Pockets are TINY, which ultimately is a no-no for me.

Hoodie is well made and fits very nice. Material is soft and warm too.

I ordered this for a fall trip to Scotland. It was perfect! Spot on navy color, warm yet breathable, cuffs are comfortable-not tight, zipper is smooth and the fit is exactly what I was hoping for. I don’t like tight fitting clothes so I usually go for sz 24 & 3x.

This is a quality hoodie--- heavy weight and high neck. It keeps me warm every day. I wish there were more colors to choose from.

So, let me tell you about this hoodie I recently purchased - it's seriously the comfiest thing I've ever worn. The material is like a warm hug on a chilly day, super soft and cozy. The fit is just right too, not too baggy but still roomy enough to layer over a t-shirt or long sleeve. The drawstring hood adds that extra level of snugness when you need it, and the kangaroo pocket in front is perfect for keeping your hands warm or storing snacks (because let's be real, who doesn't love a good snack pocket?). Plus, the color options are awesome - I went with a classic black that goes with everything. Overall, this hoodie gets an A+ from me for comfort, style, and practicality. 10/10 would recommend!

I was considering an American Giant, gorgeous heavy cotton sweatshirts for twice the price, and thought I'd give this one a try after my brother praised Carhartt backpacks. Had never heard of this brand. I only wear all-cotton, was hesitant that it's 45% poly. When I'm cold, I want thick comfy cotton not artificial fabrics. But this is a VERY well made, heavy fabric that is super warm and comfy. No problem at all with the blend--perhaps the 45% poly gives it the softness, while the cotton keeps some structure. Sorry, I'm a winemaker, now sounds like I'm describing a wine.I do feel a bit round in it --for my height/size, this is not a fitted, shapely, tailored look. It's roomy/long in the torso, which is VERY comfy but not flattering. Like you're wearing your boyfriend's sweatshirt, pooches out in the middle. Too short in length to hang straight down over your hips, but too long to lay smooth unless you were much taller than me in the med/large. Or thinner could wear the small? I'm 5'5" and a bit shortwaisted, wear a 12 normally. So, I bought the large, thought it too big, set up to return and sent for the medium. When the medium arrived (very promptly), it was still too long lengthwise to give a fitted "jacket" look, and wee tight on the hips so I'm keeping the large. Almost tempted to get an extra large hoping it would fall below the hips and hang straight. Hope this makes sense. Carhartt--maybe publish the lengths? I might just be too short for this cut, but it's really warm cozy comfy, exactly what I was looking for on the comfort and quality side. Definitely happy with the purchase. Wearing this around the house all the time will easily save me $40/month on my heating bill :) The only negative is there's no loop at the neck to hang on a hook/coat rack. For a 'work' style jacket, I'm surprised! if you love that idea Carhartt, you're welcome, send me an extra large in Navy.

Very nice, thick, and soft material. Runs a little big, medium feels more like a large.

Great hoodie! Well made - fits true to size - LOVE IT!!
