Decent quality hoodie?

20 replies

Hi
I’m looking for a really nice decent quality zip up hoodie. Not too long. Just to wear over t shirts/dresses.

All the ones I’ve seen in H and M etc.. are really thin. Has denying seen any nicer ones? Cream preferably! 🤞 Thsnks!

Thanks! That’s nice. Not so keen on the logo though. I am such a fusspot 🙈😁

I got the perfect one from LL Bean just before the pandemic, but that's no use to you as they ship from USA and I assume that's all off now. Living in it at the mo.

Have had some nice thick ones from Fat Face in the past - the men's are nicer if you're quite slim-hipped / straight figure.

sleepismysuperpower1 · 29/04/2020 10:57

ah ok, they do one without the logo link but not sure how thick it would be. As I say, their hoodies are usually thick so I wouldn't think this one would be any different.

Superdry are the best.

But I dont tend to wear them over dresses etc! More as leisure wear or to exercise

Saltrock do lovely comfy hoodies, though not any in cream right now...

Does anyone know what the Superdry sizing is like?

Elllllle · 29/04/2020 13:12

Superdry sizing is generally on the small side. I'm generally a size Uk10 and buy an SD 12 or medium. It can vary though, I have had 4 hoodies from superdry and one is very oversized (& wasn't described as such).

Second the Superdry recommendations. I have a really nice one in grey, black and pink colour blocks, very casual, thick, warm, washes well. I find their sizing pretty much spot on, I’m a size 8/10 and get a small.

Brilliant thanks all! I fancied trying a hoodie instead of a cardigan. I am getting more casual the older I get!

Have a look at jersey bomber jackets as well - they're really good for over dresses and jeans. Just put 'bomber' into ASOS and see what comes up! I have a navy one from Only that is useful.

I got a nice one from J Crew.

I’ve got two of the Sweaty Betty ones that BrassicaBabe posted about. They don’t have a zip but I love them!! One of my best buys. The cut is perfect and they cover my bum.

BrassicaBabe · 29/04/2020 18:25

@emma6776 I want them to bring out more colours. Bloody love this forest green one 😘

emma6776 · 29/04/2020 18:47

I’ve got the Forest green and the beetle blue. I’d dithered for ages until I had a decent promo code!

Richlyfruited · 29/04/2020 19:20

I saw this one before lockdown and thought the quality was great but they didn't have my size in store and I haven't been able to order it since! www.next.co.uk/g59169s15/814081#814081

BrassicaBabe · 29/04/2020 19:24

Is the Beetle Blue one emma that warm-ish blue vs a navy? Are the toggles rose gold or silver? Ta. Pondering Grin

emma6776 · 03/05/2020 22:28

It’s got rose gold toggles.
