Review: Ottima
Review: Amazing! Going to buy in multiple colors. Runs a little big size wise but overall comfortable and worth every penny. Hood isn’t oversized like most hoodies fits my head perfectly. Has small extra pocket inside front pocket great for keys or small items. Heavy duty and warm. Color vibrant. Great quality.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this sweatshirt feel like a regular sweatshirt, or is it a little smooth almost shiny to repel the water**
A: It feels just like a regular sweatshirt. It's not shiny at all. The only difference from a regular sweatshirt I would say, is that the material is a lot thicker and more durable. Even though it is a rain defender it is nothing like a rain jacket.

**Q: How much will this shrink when washed**
A: Nothing at all. Had mine for over a year now and wash 1x a week. Still fits like the first day

**Q: I am 6'2 and a lean 190lbs. the xl was a perfect fit as for the lengths, but it was too loose/baggy. should i go for the large or large-tall?**
A: Do they make it in large tall?  That would solve the problem.

**Q: 5'-8" 235lbs what size would be best**
A: I would think an xl maybe even large. My husband is 6’5” 300 and got 2xl tall.

*by T***A on 26 June 2021*

Hace poco conocí esta marca y sus productos me han encantado. Son costosos, compre esta sudadera rebajada en $898, con ese dinero podria haberme comprado 2 o 3 sudaderas de otras marcas. Creo es la mejor sudadera que he tenido en mi vida. Es pesada y de uso rudo, mucho más calentita q una sudadera normal, repele el agua y se ve que me va a durar muchos años. Mido 170cm y peso 92kg, la mediana me queda perfecta, podría traer abajo una playera y algo más (camisa de franela, chaleco delgado o sueter delgado)
