Arborwear Double-Thick Hooded Pullover Sweatshirts For Men - Heavyweight Hoodies With Snap Neck Collar and Handwarmer Pouch

When I first came across this hoodie on Amazon, I was interested. After reading the rave reviews, I was hooked. But, $80-90 for a hoodie - seriously? I just couldn't pull the trigger. So I spent some time checking out the Arborwear site and their videos. Then, came back to Amazon and found it on sale for 60 some odd bucks. A couple days later, it arrived.First impression - yes, this is truly a heavyweight hoodie. Looks great, perfect fit, comfortable and very warm - met or exceeded my expectations.I am 5'10" 175lbs and the large fits just right. I typically wear a large for sweatshirts and this is true to size. It is not snug nor baggy - basically, it fits comfortably and allows for a full range of motion without feeling constricting.While not all brands have consistent sizing, I found many of the reviews here helpful in determining the right size for this particular hoodie. (Thanks!)The henley button neck is also a huge plus. While the buttons do not extend as low as a typical henley shirt, they do provide enough of an opening to make the neckline comfortable versus the snugness you might get from other hoodies. The snap placket is also nice for loosening up / venting when you come in from the cold.The hood itself is oversized - somewhat overwhelming when worn up, but also lays flat when down.As for the hoodies thickness & warmth .... this is a hoodie like no other. I have dozens of hoodies from Oakley to North Face to Dakine and others, all of which are great - yet, this Arborwear hoodie is in a class all of its own in regards to warmth & thickness.If I want to stay warm on a cool day, I'll wear one of my other hoodies.If I want to stay warm on a cold day (Michigan winters), I'll wear the Arborwear.(Actually wore it today, no jacket needed ... it was 15 degrees, windchill of about 5, and felt comfortably warm).Bottom line, if you're looking for a rugged, well made hoodie that's comfortable & warm - this is it.Given the typical going rate for a quality "heavyweight" hoodie (about $50 - or more), this one is worth the few extra bucks - it is extraordinarily warm, yet still practical enough for an active lifestyle. In other words ... it's awesome!

Recently got this product for a maine moose hunt. Worked awesome, nice and warm, even a little water resistant in the snow. 5/5 stars.On that note, don’t skip leg day if you are going to be moving around in this thing. this sweatshirt weighs as much as a moose quarter. You need a 4” nail to hang it off of. To wash it, it fills a washing machine itself. Reminds me of the weighted anxiety blankets for kids. Warm, nice quality,but frickin heavy! Was perfect for what I needed.

If you are looking for a warm, thick sweatshirt, Arbor Wear is the place to get one in the heavy weight line. It was exactly as advertised, great color (red) and seems to be a very good material. Several years ago while pricing sweatshirts I swore I would never pay $80 - $90 for a sweatshirt. I had priced name brand athletic brands, they were cheap, very thin and could not have been warm. I looked at other outdoor brands, they were also cheap material. After doing a lot of research I came across Arbor Wear and read reviews. I took a chance and purchased one last week. I was completely satisfied when it came and was surprised at how heavy it was. I didn't expect the weight of it. I am 6'3, 190 lbs, I ordered a large based on "some" reviews. The length is perfect, the fit around my torso is perfect and arm length is also perfect. Some reviews reflected how large the hood is. It is somewhat large to accommodate a hardhat or large head-wear. I like the large hood so I have no problem with it.Folks, for the money you are getting what you pay for and I'll be ordering another for myself and a couple of Christmas gifts.Thanks Arbor Wear, you have my business!

As far as mid winter and windy cold weather hoodies goes these can't be beat I have many different brands of hoodie, Origin, Carhartt, Duluth, Champion, American Giant and this is easily the best out of all of them for winter conditions. Highly recommended

super heavy duty hoodie. Well made.

He said it was very warm and just what he wanted.

I read all the reviews I could find and they were all right. This sweater is very heavy and warm. It's so thick it acts as a wind breaker too. The hood is very large but not too big, which is great if you have a giraffe neck like me. The buttons for the hood work well. They keep the wind out without dragging the hood down over your eyes. If you do up the buttons and pull the hood down they kind of create a neck warmer which is great. I am a carpenter/fisherman and have had this on in 0 degrees Celsius by itself. An XL fits me great I have an athletic build on the slender side and it's loose but not overly baggy, great for work not constricting at all. For reference I am 6'3” 215lbs. The sleeves are long enough for me and so is the body. The only way I could improve it for me is if the body was a couple inches longer. I put both hands over my head quite a bit and it will expose my stomach. Don't get me wrong, the sweater is a good length personally for a work sweater I'd like it longer plus my height doesnt help. This is my first Arborwear purchase and I will definitely be getting more.

This is my second arborwear sweater I now own. The new one fits the exact same as the old one but there is one more snap on the hood of new one and the hood is a better shape on the new one as well. Super warm, super comfortable and very durable I have been wearing my old sweater for 8 years and there is nothing wrong with it!

This hoodie is everything I hoped for. I have been wearing it for 3 months now, I have washed it a few times in cold and tumbled on low heat.It is hands down the best hoodie I have ever owned. I was very this past winter here in Kelowna BC and wearing it to and from the oil rig I was working on in northern Alberta.It can basically be your jacket if your not spending a lot of time outside.The no draw string snap style hoodie is game changing. The way the hood lays when your not wearing it is much more comfortable with the open snap style. The oversized hood is great too for its weight and taking naps in your car or if your waiting somewher.The front pocket is much better than any hoodie I have owned before. It's sewn angled up and I have never had anything fall out. The pocket flap is very thick too.The entire hoodie is just thick and solid.I'm 5"11 and 200 pounds and a large is great. It's still very roomy and doesn't feel or look sloppy.I think an extra large would have been over kill.Just order it. It has held up very well over the last few months still looks and feel brand new. You will experience zero buyers remorse.The chestnut color is what I recommend, it looks great with everything.

Best hoodie I’ve ever purchased super warm and heavy like a bulletproof proof vest don’t neeed a winter jacket with this even in 20 below

I feel like a lesser person whenever I take this hoodie off. It is one of the most comfortable and warm things Ive ever worn.. it's -25C here and going out with a wool sweater with this over it is better than any jacket I've had. Not saying it's warmer than an Arctic down jacket but it's so big and roomy that wearing layers is much more.. possible.I also love this hoodie because I play skip in curling, so all I do is stand around and get cold.. this hoodie not only keeps me ridiculously warm, it lets me pretend I'm a sith lord if I put the hood on so I can incite terror into my opponents souls!5/5
