I bought this sweatshirt based on a review (thanks!) about the difference between Reverse Weave and ALL other sweatshirts. It's thick, warm, well made and I expect it to last for years. I would say that (unless you like a tight sweatshirt) you might want to go up a size for more room, but my husband is 5ft 11in, 240#, and the 2XL fits him perfectly. worth the money. and I expect it to last for many years. My husband can't stop raving about this sweatshirt! NOT your usual low quality sweatshirt!
