I spec-ed this as a layering piece for the 1620 pullover and front zip hoodie. While it can be very much on its own, it is an excellent underneath layering piece. With it you can basically double the weight of said hoodies with one stroke. I am not so much into the side pockets on a crew sweater. However, these pockets are placed and function uniquely very well. So, be open to them.

At a naked 6'2" 170 Ibs 40" circumference chest, I am between the M and L Pullover Hoodie sizes. The size medium hoodie has a below armpit of 20.5 inches chest while this size small crew has a 21" pit to pit and 20" below arm pit. So, said crew is approaching skin tight on me but looks good and is not too tight, while still fitting well under the medium hoodie. At these dimensions, the crew neck is quite snug, but not too tight. Sleeves on the small crew reach my hands at the resting position and as such fit well within medium pullover longer sleeves.

Glad this worked out, as while the small size crew is close to the sizing chart, I still wish everyone published exact garment dimensions per garment. But in any case, the data indicates that if you are looking to inside layer with this, go one size down from your usual pullover if that is your body type. FYI I have the size Medium Zip Hoodie.

I have been looking for a tuff crew sweater that will layer with a variety of graments, especially 1620, and this one fits the bill.

Purchased last month, but know cool enough to use it. Awesome stretch, fabric and length. I have not tried it yet, but hoping to be able to wear with my harness and landyard at work, because not heated (very well). Always checking out website for new items.

Been waiting a while for a crew neck. What an awesome sweatshirt. The pockets are amazing and I like them much more than I thought I would. Everything is perfect, love the usual long tail and front so my **** doesn’t hang out. Only issue I have is the “1620” logo on the bottom is peeling after the first wash. I would go back to the sewn on like the rest. Really though who cares.

Another great sweatshirt to work in. Really like the pockets on the crew neck sweatshirt. Never seen that before. Only issue is this seems a touch shorter than the hoodies so when working overhead, it does ride up a bit.

I wear a XL in the Tech Hoodie so figured I would be the same size in this crew version. Unfortunately I had to send it back for a size L because I was swimming in it, was just too big. I am still waiting for the L to arrive so I cant give a true review from wearing it. Other than the size issue, everything seemed to be exactly what you would expect from 1620, great build and quality.
