I walk my pups daily in either the summer heat of New Mexico or the summer heat of Texas. Although we head out early, the sun is still shining and t's always a good idea to have a little something covering up my arms and, in Texas, all of my upper body because of the critters that come with the humidity. This lightweight, cotton hoodie is the perfect choice.
I typically order tops/blouses in a medium size but I ordered this in a large since I did not want it to fit very snug.
Speaking to the size, I am 5' 8" tall and I weigh 160 pounds. For the purpose of this item, my measurements are:
Bust (with bra) 38"
Waist (by navel) 35"
The hoodie fits me with a comfortable looseness (ie it does not feel like it is too big). The sleeves hit me at the top of my knuckles, which is where I like them. It falls at about mid hip level.
The hoodie is made of a very lightweight cotton. I saw other reviews that mentioned the material was too thin. Well, that is exactly how the item is intended - lightweight - so I have no problem with that. For me, the weight of the material makes it easy for me to tie the hoodie around my waist on those rare occasions when I decide to take it off when I am walking.
Once the weather starts to cool down, I will wear this hoodie as a top layer when I am working out. It's the perfect choice for that use since the material is breathable.
This is a quality item at a fantastic price point. I have ordered four of them.
