Review on Get your Link on with Ya-cos Cosplay Hooded Hyrule Warriors Jacket – Green Zipper Coat by Josh Nat

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Realistic test - my new test

Size - Follow the size guide and you will be fine. Measure yourself and order accordingly. These are ASIAN sizes. I've had several sweatshirts made this way and I knew what to expect. I'm 6ft 150lbs with a 38 inch chest. I bought the middle one and it fits perfectly. Quality - fur. They always seem very good at first, but aren't usually built to last. Especially on this one I had to sew on part of the hood for the first few days, I advise against buying this only if you have at least basic sewing skills to be able to repair it several times over its lifespan or it is soft and comfortable and will thin over time with wear and washing. This is not a winter hoodie, more of a spring sweatshirt. I haven't had any issues with the plastic zipper like others (yet), but it's easy to replace when needed, or can be thrown away and set for button closure if you'd like. Individualization is a good basis for creativity. I bought it with the intention of customizing it to my liking. So far I've replaced the cheap "rope" with paracord, added stainless steel rivets, and sewn fabric into the hood and around the collar (white collars get dirty pretty easily and don't wash well), and plan to do a lot more. Conclusion - for such a price it's nice, but the price really reflects the overall quality. This will require different repairs to some degree over your time. Overall I love it and recommend it for this price ($35) and not a penny more. BTW there is an Esty store that sells this as "handmade" for $120.

Pros
  • This jacket is a must-have for any Link Cosplay costume, its green color and hood design add to the authenticity of the costume.
Cons
  • May be uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time.
