A pullover hoodie in a brushed fleece, cut roomy through the body with a dropped shoulder so nothing binds across the back when you reach for something. The neckline opens into a short V notch rather than a full zip or a drawstring, which keeps the front flat and stops the hood from bunching up behind your neck when it is down. The placket is short and clean, so the hoodie pulls on and off without fighting the neckline.

The cotton blend is smooth on the face and brushed soft on the inside, so it holds warmth without the weight you would expect from a hoodie cut this generously. Ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem keep their shape through repeated washing and stop the sleeves sliding down over your hands. The hood is lined in the same fleece and cut full enough to actually go up over your head rather than sitting there for show.
