The perfect sweatshirt?

I'm looking for a sweatshirt - crew neck, I like a v-stitch but not essential, boxy fit. Happy to look at men's or unisex as well as women's.

But I want a soft fleecy lining on the inside! Not like an extra layer of fleece, but you know, just soft like sweatshirts are supposed to be. Like school PE kit.

M&S menswear would almost be perfect but not soft inside.

Anyone found a good one?

Try Uniqlo sweatshirts, they have models with soft lining and loose fit. They're very comfortable

Ah thanks, all the ones I've had from Uniqlo are loop-back/french terry which isn't as soft as what I'm looking for but I will keep looking!

Like this?

Obviously this is a hoodie but I assume Colorful Standard sweatshirts are the same inside. Mine bought recently on sale from End Clothing. Almost sent it back because the colour (ironically) seemed disappointingly dull. But someone else complimented me on it, so … Grin

They do have prettier colours:

Some of my H&M sweatshirts are like that. You have to look on the description as some of them are and some of them aren't. The ones that are state 'with a soft brushed inside'.

I was wondering about the insides of Colorful Standard, thanks!

I think the technical term is brushed back jersey? It's definitely not an obscure thing, is it? I swear like 50% of sweatshirts used to be like this. It's just not always easy to see online.

This sort of thing.

I've got a few sweats from Rapanui that are soft in the inside (not loop). Boxy ones (currently in sale) and an oversized one. Washed well too!

Also - Bambooclothing for different styles with brushback interior (wearing one just now!)

I have a men's sweatshirt for m Hollister which I bought to meet exactly this brief, and I love it!

Thanks all! H&M mens looking like a winner...

I have a couple from Next that are like that on the inside.

I bought one of the H&M sweats for one of the boys, a few years ago, and it fell apart in no time, it was so badly stitched together.
