Review on Joes USA Heavyweight Pullover Sweatshirt XS GraphiteHeather by Daniel Postle

Revainrating 2 out of 5

For that price I would go with another heavyweight hoodie

Ok here's the thing, I'm a fan of hoodies and I love extra heavyweight thick hoodies so this list is for " The heavy hoodie piqued my interest. The description said it used 12-ounce fabric, which didn't strike me as super heavy, but I still had high hopes. When it arrived, I was a fan for a number of reasons little disappointed - firstly it's quite heavy but thin is probably better for those living in warm climates which I don't - calling it a 'heavyweight' hoodie is definitely overkill anyway and for the price you get yours better get a Gildan or whatever or look for a heavier weight hoodie for the same price, it doesn't feel extremely durable like you would expect from a heavyweight hoodie, some seams are ripped eat within minutes of opening the package. My second issue with this sweatshirt is the hood itself, it goes up in an unnatural way, it looks like a triangle on your head if you wear it wrong - I've experienced this with other sweatshirts like Hanes but every hoodie over $40 wins. t have to have this problem. My last issue was that the sizing seemed a bit wrong, bottom too long for XL, luckily I know how to sew and fixed this issue for me, but if I didn't I would be out of luck and I will probably never wear this hoodie. On the other hand, I love the color, it looks exactly like the photo, which is a common problem I have when buying sweatshirts on Amazon. I also love how it fits after sewing it and making some adjustments. Although it's not as thick and heavy as the Id, it still gives a nice feeling of solidity and heaviness.

Pros
  • Size XS-4XL
Cons
  • Not as thick as the other options
