Review on Catalonia Oversized Sweatshirt Comfortable Pullover by Justin Metz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Yes, I'm an adult, I carry a teddy bear, a blanket, a sweatshirt

I'm cold all the time and I live in Michigan. The cold winter weather doesn't help me there. I asked my husband to buy me one for Christmas but he refused because it looked too "stupid". Okay, I lived in hoodies and long underwear until the end of January while I sat and watched TV or read a book. In the end I gave up and bought it. Oh my god, I'm finally warm. That's incredible. And I thought, if I'm walking around the house in a blanket, why not go all "dumb" and look like a teddy bear? To be clear, the teddy bear coat is child size. There is no adult version - this is not clear from Revain's list. This worked really well for me because I'm a 5ft 3in woman and wear a size 16/18. The length of the coat is down to my knees and is slightly longer in the back and shorter in the back. Front. The sleeve length is just right too. The sleeves end with a soft elastic cuff. When I stretch my wrists out of this cuff, my fingertips just stick out of the sleeves. In terms of spaciousness, it easily fits me as a men's 3X sweatshirt. I could accommodate myself and a small child here. If you're thinner than me, you definitely have more space. While this coat isn't long enough or big enough to tuck my legs and feet into, the kid-sized seat is much more comfortable moving around the house. And when my feet are cold, I just throw a blanket over my legs and feet. In general, the coat is sewn very well, good stitching. There is a pocket on the stomach. Evenly lined, i.e. Sherpa on the outside and soft microfibre on the inside. I washed it upon arrival because it left little bits of fleece on my clothes. Washed in delicate cold water, without rinsing. Then tumble dry on medium heat for 10 minutes and then hang to dry. This worked great - the fur stayed soft, but the fluffy hairs got rid of. I am very satisfied with the quality of this item. It's not high fashion, but I'm finally warm and cozy.
