Climbing Hoodie

Received my new Simond Hoodie recently, and have worn it on a couple of occasions. First impressions are mostly positive - the material had a bit of a stiffness to it right out of the box, but became softer after the first wash. The fit is slim/fitted, I am usually either S or M in most clothes, and for me (slim/athletic) this hoodie is positively tight around the torso in M. The sleeves seem rather long at first, but this makes sense considering the hoodie is targeted at climbers, so the sleeves still cover the entire arm when raising it above the head. The hood fits well on its own, but also covers a helmet. Overall the fleece is midweight, certainly warmer than a light or microfleece, but not too warm either. There are two points of criticism for me. First of all, the two-way zip can be a bit fiddly. It usually takes a couple of seconds to undo it in order to take the hoodie off. The second point is in regard to the hood laces. They are extremely thin and feel pretty cheap. Usually these kind of laces are stuffed with a certain material to make them round, but these are really just a very flat band of material (as visible in the product pictures). Pulling on them they audibly chafe along the material of the hood, and I'm hesitant to actually pull on them properly out of the fear they may snap. Thankfully the hood fits very well on its own. So overall a pretty good hoodie, especially for the price, but with room for improvement in the details.

I'm extremely happy with this purchase, and would recommend it highly. My medium is a perfect close fit. The neck is high enough to give good neck insulation without causing a nuisance. Quality is excellent for the price.

I got this as a test buy to see what the quality of simond kit was like and i'm very impressed, i will be buying a lot of simond stuff now because its high quality for a good price.

The product isn’t worth the amount paid. It isn’t protective for Jan cold at all. I feel cheated.

Product is not worth the price. Material is average. Two stars for looks. Product should have been in the range of Rs.800-1000. Size also varies from the size chart.

Fitting is ultimate for every individual like it sticks to everyone's body. Its warm as per ones need. Best product Simond is giving. Five star is less for it, its ten star. Highly recommended
