For the most part this sweatshirt is lovely...soft and cozy, not stiff. The black is slightly heathered, which wasn't obvious in the pics but was a nice surprise when I received it. The wrist cuffs have a good amount of stretch, which is a funny pet peeve of mine with a lot of other sweatshirts. The one thing that's not idea is that the fit is more snug than I was expecting, not as roomy as in the model pics. That also means the length is a little shorter than I was expecting. If I'd realized that ahead of time I would have sized up. It's definitely not a deal-breaker but something I wish I'd realized beforehand.
