Review on Catalonia Oversized Sweatshirt Comfortable Pullover by Charles Collier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

My favorite

I didn't expect it to be my favorite, I just bought a big long top and I really liked the idea of putting on a warm top with pockets on a cold morning, but this long was too big and fat for this time of year. I would never have ordered what happens to be a child's size (although the description doesn't say so) if I had known; I subsequently compared the measurements to another listing of the same product that shows adult and child sizing options. I'm not petty. I'm a very average height woman, about 5ft 5" and 20lbs overweight, but this is the perfect size for me, although I love loose things - the "one size fits all" of most of these styles isn't great. , too much fabric (especially on the sleeves). Fit: Maybe mid-thigh, but not long enough to cover my butt decently if I lean too far. Freedom: I think I could gain 40 pounds (I hope that never happens) and it would still be comfortable. Sleeves: can be a problem for men and people with longer arms; the sleeves are just long enough for me, but I wouldn't fuss if they were an inch or two longer; I tend to roll up my sleeves anyway. COMFORT: So soft and warm, and the bag is a real treat with the plush warmth of the Sherpa softness on both sides of the bag. My fingers are constantly cold from the iced coffee and that's the only thing keeping them warm. Since then I've tried two more "one sizes" and given one away after trying it on and I'm trying to love it. another one that might work after washing it a few times (comfortable seems to come with a cover) but this is by far my favorite hooded blanket.
