By Joe from NY on 10/01/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight Best Uses: Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: The company really has to improve the zipper. It took me at least 15 min to zip up and another 15 min to unzip.
By In Trout Pursuit from Springfield, MO on 09/28/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight, Stylish Best Uses: Camping, Casual Wear, Hiking, Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Very surprising lack of quality in the zipper for a company who usually excels in all phases of construction. Leave it zipped partially and pull it over and I'm sure it will serve well for a long time.

The shirts run large, the hoodie ran small, and the pants are true to size.

It does what it's meant to do By New England Preppy from Massachusetts on 08/21/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Lightweight Best Uses: Camping, Hiking, Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is very lightweight, not what I would normally call a "sweatshirt." However...that's great! It's nice to have a light coverup to take the chill off in a warm evening and to protect us from mosquitos.
It seems to do fine with the mosquitos, although your exposed parts are still vulnerable.
It has a trim cut to it, but I think it's true to size. If you have a thin or athletic build, I'd get your regular size. If you're a bit pudgy in the middle, you might need to order up.

I wanted a lightweight hoodie for summer wear.
Perfect weight and design hoodie By Magpie from Helena, Montana on 07/27/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight Best Uses: Camping, Casual Wear, Hiking, Outdoor Activities, Travel, Work Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This hoodie is the perfect weight, its inside pockets are very handy, and it packs compactly. Just right for mornings and evenings on Southwest river trips and adds just the right layer on wet days in the Pacific Northwest.
Use as a thick base layer/pullover By greenscales from Carlsbad, CA on 07/27/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Lightweight, Stylish Best Uses: Camping, Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Just spent 2 weeks in the Redwoods and Sierras - including Alpine Swamps. The Zipper is bad and had to use the sweater as a pullover. Fabric can easily catch on small branches/thorns and is almost too breathable. But with a thin windbreaker or long sleeve hike shirt worn over the top, the hoodie was great for layering. It worked good for insects and I wore it most evenings. Great product if you reconize the limitations.
By Laurel from Montana on 07/21/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Stylish Best Uses: Casual Wear, Travel Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Chest Size: Feels too small Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Works great, now keeps repellent for 70 washings. Lightweight and perfect for evenings. Trendy fit makes this too tight in the arms and chest, but it's so long it's not worth buying a larger size. Better for a night out than camping.
