Lands' EndGirls Reversible High Pile Fleece Hoodie

Unicorns are cute!

Almost every year, I buy my daughter this hoodie. This year we purchased the one with unicorns. We like the colors but I noticed that the colors have faded very easily and the hoodie is beginning to look worn out. Hopefully, the quality of Lands End is not going down.

a better hoodie than most

I've been buying these hoodies for my kids for several years (we've gone from size 4 to 10-12), since the previous non-reversible version, and they are among the best available, especially for the price. Unfortunately, making them reversible has not improved them; it's a silly gimmick that has resulted in a far more fiddly zipper. My kids could easily zip in and out as first graders, but now it's more difficult to *perfectly* align the zipper, which can cause significant frustration for younger or ND kids. I also lament that the reversible gimmick results in fewer brightly patterned hoodies over the years, particularly in gender-neutral patterns/colors. The pattern is often on the fleece, and the whole point of these fleece-lined hoodies is to have cuddly cozy fleece on the *inside* where it keeps the kids comfy. Who wants cold, wet fleece exteriors? However, this is overall a great quality hoodie; in our moderate winters it's often the only jacket my kids need unless it's pouring rain. I've never had one rip or develop holes, the fleece stays pretty soft, it doesn't shrink after washing. I also appreciate that the sleeves are fully-lined with fleece--the competing Scandinavian brand hoodie I buy for them is only fleece-lined in the body. The 10-12 size is a tad small for a sturdily built (but not 'Husky') kid; my kids would be better served with two sizes in that range.

Great fleece

Lovely colour and soft material, regularly buy these for my grandkids as they are so comfortable and keep them warm

Perfect

nine-year-old granddaughter loved this jacket. The fact that it was very very warm, and it’s reversible enabled her not to have to wear a long, bulky coat

Faulty zipper

This was an awesome item but unfortunately the zipper broke within 1.5 months of use.

Loved and worn

Bought this for my grandson in red and he does not want to take it off so bought the navy one . Now I have time to wash one as he wares the other. My husband and son would like to see them in Thier sizes!

Teen Loves It.

My teenaged grandson loved this camo hoodie and has been wearing it regularly. Did have to exchange for a larger size, but no hassle to do so.

I bought this for my grandson for a bigger size from the one he has outgrown. It’s the same quality jacket with improved fabric for wear with clothing. He likes it. Thank you for the quality product.
