Amazon Essentials Men's Full-Zip Fleece Jacket - Discontinued Colors

The Fit: I am 6ft,165lb with broad shoulders, long arms and no gut. I wear a size MEDIUM like a sweater with only a Tshirt underneath. In MEDIUM it fits me with a trim fit and the sleeves are the right length for me. It fits me perfectly. To wear this as a jacket over thicker base layers I might need a size larger. The sleeves are attached at a sensible angle so it is possible to raise the arms freely and move freely, which is a very welcome feature, thank you Amazon!The Material / Stretch: I have three colors: the red buffalo plaid, charcoal heather and navy blue. The charcoal heather and navy blue are a traditional fleece that has some normal stretch to it but is not a "stretch" fabric. The red plaid feels more like a felt that doesn't stretch very much. I like them all but the red plaid is a bit tight in the elbows at first but does eventually stretch to fit.Warmth: It is a mid-weight fleece like advertised. I wear it indoors like a sweater.Pockets: The inner wall of the pockets are constructed of the same fleece as the jacket, so that creates two layers of fleece in those areas, making the jacket feel thicker in that area but not bulky. I would prefer pockets made of a thinner mesh or fabric but that isn't a big issue. The extra fabric adds some warmth that some people will prefer. Pockets are deep and have zippers so are both warm and secure.I've had these jackets for about 6 weeks and wear them frequently, sometimes with a vest over the top for additional warmth when needed. This is a nice item, no complaints so far.

This was one of my first purchases of Amazon Essentials clothing, and I have been pleasantly surprised by the quality. The fleece material is both soft and warm, while the garment seems to be constructed quite well. I did not notice any issues with the quality of this jacket, there were not any missed stitching or numerous unclipped threads.

I have had an older C9 (Champion) fleece for years and wear it whilst doing chores-construction-insulation-painting-caulking...etc. That now is falling apart and looks like an artist's studio floor.Time for a new fleece of some sort. So, with the awesome price, I tried the Amazon fleece. My old one was 1/4 zip and that was fine. Full zip? Good for us older people who don't want to mess up our hair. Just easier to manage. Star #1.It is a pleasant color and very nice fleece fabric. Star #2It has 2 side pockets that zip. Star #3The zipper is flawless and the comfort, fit and stretchiness makes it like a second skin. Star #4There are compartments inside where the pockets attach to the side seam. If this was sewn all the way down to the waist, it would be an inside pocket and a place to stash my cell phone. It is left open and I may just sew it closed myself but this is the minus 1 Star for this garment. It should have a cell phone pocket somewhere.I guess if it was designed that way, it would cost 2-3 times more.Size wise- I am wearing medium and I like it. A little snug but this is my preference. Not binding.I am 5ft 9in and weigh 170lbs. It fits as expected.Good quality. Good Value.

This fleece jacket is simply outstanding! It is the ideal weight for cooler weather (or for layering when it's really cold). The material is incredibly soft and very comfortable. It has just the right amount of stretch for when you're active (hiking, jogging, etc.). It functions extremely well for my needs... whether lounging around the house or hitting the trail. Sizing runs true. The color is fantastic too... I've received many compliments while wearing it. Definitely recommend 👍

I have a broken shoulder, I needed more clothes that zip or button fully in the front, as I cannot wear anything else right now. This is a nice weight material for a chilly day. It would make a good light jacket also, but I am wearing as an "everyday sweater." I'm an active, fit, mid ' 50's woman, normally a medium or large in a ladies T (need comfortable room in the bust). A man's XL in this garment was perfect, also important right now as I can't wear anything that impedes or restricts my shoulder. The quality appears very nice, and the fit is nice a roomy, but I'm not swimming, in an XL. It is sewn very nicely, there's nothing "cheap" about this item, in my opinion. I might buy another one, as the price is very reasonable and I am very happy with the quality (and comes in lots of great colors). Also from a female point of view, because this is a man's size, it is a little longer through the torso, than a ladies size would be, and I love that it falls slightly below hip, and is perfect with my favorite cold weather black leggings, which require a slightly below hip length for whatever I'm wearing on top, to look appropriate. The sleeves are too long for my frame, but I easily resolve this by cuffing the sleeves. I will definitely be wearing this after I no longer have dressing problems, is the perfect solution for me!
