this shirt is at odds with itself. the body is too short and the sleeves too long although once washed that corrected itself (it shrank quite a bit). I like the idea of this shirt....as a french terry it is lighter weight than a fleece sweatshirt and makes it a great summer long sleeved shirt. The colors I received were beautiful and there were great color choices. But the shirt was not oversized as stated. I love that it is 100% cotton. I am keeping them because I am losing weight (75# already!) and they will hopefully fit soon....this shirt did not meet the quality I usually find from Chadwick's.

I love the idea of this shirt..and the colors available..and the fact it is 100% COTTON which is often hard to find in something other than regular t-shirts..the sleeves are long...which I like because often sleeves seem a bit short......but the body is not oversized as stated and is very short. I like that is has more weight than a regular type t-shirt but not as heavy as a fleece sweatshirt making it perfect for summer. The fabric has no stretch to it what so ever which is common with french terry and I was not expecting it but a bit of stretch might help make it fit better. I will be returning the items I ordered unfortunately because I love the colors.

 
I hope you offer this next year!

I have three of these "sweatshirts" and love them all. They aren't a true sweatshirt material,as they aren't lined with fuzzy stuff (excuse my technical term - lol.) I get warm easily and like the lighter weight. The neck is not too high, like a traditional sweatshirt, and the length is high hip. I find that complimentary for me.

OK for Everyday

Sizing:
Feels true to size
Sleeve Length:
Feels too long
Pros:
Comfortable
Best Uses:
At home casual
Describe Yourself:
Bargain Shopper, Classic

As others have noted, the shirt is shorter than expected; combined with the boxy fit, this means the shirt doesn't have much shape on the body and ends at a length (mid-hip) that's not the most flattering for those of us who wear plus sizes. On the other hand, it is quite comfortable.

I apparently got the version with the overlong sleeves - not a problem as the sleeves do roll up well. The sleeve cuffs are a bit odd as well - they aren't quite wide enough to be bell sleeves, but they are wider than normal.

All in all, this shirt seems a bit confused - LOL - a lot of "not quite this but not quite that either." I wouldn't have paid full price for it, but at the clearance price for an all cotton knock-around-the-house type shirt that isn't as heavy as a sweatshirt but has a bit more weight than a t-shirt, it works for me.

I love these shirts, however, the sleeve sizes are never the same. Some are too tight and too long, while others are too short. Manufacturer should closely monitor these areas to assure we get the same sizes each time we buy. When I first starting buying these shirts the sleeves were actually "over-sized" as advertised but lately none of the sleeves fit that description.

This sweatshirt is not overly heavy, so it can be worn on less cool days. If the weather is cold, a turtleneck would look great under it.

OVerall, product was very comfortable but did not know what French Terry was. thought it would be more softer, more fleece. At first was disappointed but when I wore it, I did like it and probably will buy it again. It ran true to size and fit well.

I will be travelling abroad where it's chilly. Need something that is comfortable yet acceptable in restaurants even trendy ones...I love the length, generally plus size clothes are extremely long and make the person look even heavier. I plan to dress up my v-neck sweatshirts w/beautiful scarves, boot leg pants and boots. This look is classic and sophisticated in any part of the world.

I like the product but the sizing was not correct. I ordered a little smaller hoping for a good comfortable fit not real baggy. It was smaller than normal size. Gave it as a gift to another person that could wear it. Was disappointed - looking forward to wearing it - it looked comfortable. Did not want to go to the hassle of a return and exhange.
