True to size, true to color, comfortable lightweight zip up hoodie
5 out of 5 stars
True to size, true to color, comfortable lightweight zip up hoodie
This lightweight, light heather gray zip up hoodie/jacket perfectly matches a pair of joggers he has (purchased from Walmart). Great for lounging around the house or taking with him when it’s not cold enough for a coat but an extra layer is still needed. Basically, your average zip up hoodie. True to size (ordered M). It’s comfortably loose fitting but should still work through next fall/winter. Quality is as expected (same as what you’d get from Walmart). I don’t put such things in the dryer but if you did, I’d expect it to shrink a bit. I hang (air dry) as much clothing as possible to extend their use. Zipper is functional. Hood is nice and roomy. For a growing boy, you can’t ask for much more for the price. Would buy again.

    The fit is true to size, and it allows for plenty of movement, which is important since he’s always running around. The hoodie is well-made and feels sturdy, even after several washes. I was also happy with how it held up—no shrinking or fading, and it’s still just as soft as when we first got it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great overall, just needs a pre-wash
    Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2024
    Size: LargeColor: BlackVerified Purchase
    This Amazon Essentials Boys and Toddlers’ Fleece Zip-Up Hoodie is a fantastic purchase overall! The fleece is super soft, warm, and cozy, making it perfect for cooler days. My son loves it and finds it very comfortable to wear. The zipper is sturdy, and the hoodie fits him nicely without being too tight or too loose.

    The only drawback I found was that it shed quite a bit of black lint the first time he wore it over a white tee. After just one wear, his shirt was covered in little black fuzzies. I’d recommend giving it a wash before the first wear to avoid this issue. After that initial wash, the lint problem was resolved, and it’s been great ever since.

    Overall, it’s a great value hoodie for everyday wear, just remember to pre-wash!

    So soft!! My son hates things to be too tight and even though I sized up one size I can tell it won’t be too tight even when he’s able to fill out the length. Adorable and thick enough I know it will last! He was able to zip himself too, not a hard zipper like other brands.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Variable quality and size
    Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2025
    Size: LargeColor: Golden YellowVerified Purchase
    I bought two of these in late August for my 8y olds school uniform color and they were the perfect color. They were larger than the size chart said, but wearablely oversized. They had a thick off white string for the hood and wide seems throughout. Of course, he’s lost one in three months and the cuffs were getting perma-dinge anyway (hard playing in fourth grade lol), so I went into my orders to get another of the same. This one was not the same construction at all and clearly a different manufacturer. Different details like the hood size and hood string and zipper etc, and also a size that matched the chart this time, so a full size smaller than the first batch. Both work great and fit the bill, so no complaints. Be aware that this could be a variety of products but will be as stated. Hoping to get the thicker and more robust batch if (when lol) I need to get one more to get through the school year.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Bought for both my daughter and son
    Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2023
    Size: X-SmallColor: BlackVerified Purchase
    I first purchased an XS for my son, who is a smaller 6 and does not like oversized clothing. Fits him great for how he likes his clothes and the arms are not too short for his lankyness (is that even a word? You know what I mean).
    I purchased this also for my 10 year old daughter who is true to size but I got her the XL, which is size 12, for a roomier fit/room to grow. I did not order her the girls version because, honestly, the price on the boys hoodie was great and the girls was priced higher.
    Looks and feels high quality-I’m actually quite impressed. Hood is lined, which is nice, and the zipper looks and feels sturdy. The black did not fade after the first wash and I have high hopes these will last the school year.
    Also, It’s not a heavy hoodie-I’d say it’s medium to light weight, it will be perfect for our temperate south Florida winters. Very soft inside.
