Review on πŸ‘• Boys Lightweight Champion Long Sleeve Hooded Shirt - Activewear for Kids by Jake Powell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Sizing inaccurate. not 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 9 inches tall, weighs about 72 pounds and has a very thin build. The sizing chart shows he will wear medium clothing (60-87 pounds) but tall height (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 adult weight limit. 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.

Pros
  • EVERYDAY: perfect for school, sport or as a casual top for everyday life.
Cons
  • No performance
