Extremely comfortable and breathable, this sweatshirt is exactly what I was looking for in a work hoodie. The reinforced areas help keep my arms protected when im tying up trees at the farm and building pallets, as well as providing a bit of wind protection. The extra length in the tradesmen cut is a life saver on cold, windy days, and the thick hood keeps you warm and focused on work instead of your comfort. I have stopped wearing my thick CHartt jacket in favor of this sweatshirt and an extra mid layer for better mobility on the job.
