Review on Boys' Champion Sleeve Active Hooded Clothing for Active Lifestyle by Rich Ferguson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Sizing inaccurate. Non-hooded sweatshirt

First of all anyone ordering this should know that this is NOT a hoodie. I knew this from reading the description, but apparently the description used to either give the illusion that it was a hoodie or people assumed it was. This material is more like Dri-Fit material. It's very thin and works well for layering, but certainly not a substitute for a lightweight jacket like a hoodie. Now for the sizes. Our experience shows that this is very low. My son is shorter than the average 12-year-old boy, about 4ft 9in tall, weighs about 72lbs and has a very thin build. The sizing chart shows he would wear medium height clothing (60-87 pounds) but is tall in stature (4'8-5'4). Although he has a short waist, I chose a large one so he can wear it longer. This shirt fits him perfectly out of the box, even though he's technically 15 pounds under the weight limit for a tall one. I hope it does not shrink when washing, otherwise it practically does not wear out. I would say the size chart is definitely inaccurate and I should have bought a very large one. When you buy, be sure to take this into account. This shirt fits him perfectly out of the box, even though he's technically 15 pounds under the weight limit for a tall one.
