Just in case you were wondering:
“What is the difference between French terry and fleece?
Both fabrics are comfortable, the difference is in how the fabric is finished. Sweatshirt fleece has shredded yarn loops on the inside. … With French terry, the yarn loops are kept intact. This makes french terry higher in absorbancy and more breathable.”
@medz if these are the same as the last ones, then for these, yes cooler and less warm. The one I have is more like a t-shirt in the shape of a hoodie and I don’t think it’s any warmer than a long sleeved t. I used mine a lot in spring/early summer when I didn’t want anything warmer but wanted to cover up from the sun.
These are nice. The wife and I each have one. I still prefer a zipper (and have one of those meh hoodies too). But it’s great that meh finally ventured into hoodie territory. I’m hoping for more designs and even larger sizes. The 3XL fits reasonably comfortably on my 4XLT (6’7", 285 lbs) frame, but I wouldn’t hate more room and a more forgiving fit that allows for greater movement with less exposure.

@kdstrong14 does that mean it’s less insulated and cooler… not as warm?
