Warm, great fit and good value for money.
This fleece is thick and warm. The fit is excellent and true to size. The unconventional dual neck zippers work very well to keep the garment close fitting around the neck and retain warmth. This garment represents excellent value for money when you compare it to the cost of similar heavy weight fleece garments. I quite like the coyote color as well.

Stop looking, buy this!
Stop looking, buy this.At first I was apprehensive with the unconventional zipper set up but was more on the market for a "fashionable" fleece. So I bit the bullet and snagged it. 4 days later I was presented with one of the warmest fleeces I have ever worn. So I bought another for work (road construction)It wears like a sweater and the fleece fabric is more tightly woven than less expensive fleeces. This leads to a severe reconsidering of how one layers vs the cold due to heat retention. I'd advise, if you're very active like myself, to look into moisture wicking base layers cause this fleece is going to make you sweat. That aside this fleece isn't suited as a stand alone vs temperatures below 40°f and mild wind (5-10mph). Perhaps it can in the 45°-60°f range but I have yet to attempt that.Durability: So far, 3 months into ownership, this fleece has worked with me through mid November and December. Between climbing, leaning, laying on pavement, crawling etc etc etc there has been one thread pulled from the cuff. That was by some aggressive Velcro on a pair of gloves. Yup that's it, no tears or wears.Fit: I'll be honest, I got a gut LOL It ain't no Santa belly but it isn't Thor's six pack either. In the shoulder department the fleece fits perfect but when my arms go over my head the fleece pulls up unless I'm wearing a vest over it (somehow that mystically tames it) and then I have to pull it back down. No biggy but it's a good thing to know that this piece a gear will need some help getting back to where ya want it.Personal Cons- elbow reinforcement/bolstering/cushioning, I'd like to see it but not everyone is me.- torso bottom hem could use a draw string to secure fit...but I could also use a couple less pounds 😂😂That's it, so buy it before it goes up in price cause honestly I'd pay more if the small cons I had were assessed.

Runs small
Purchased to go over a tee and flannel shirt (for a 5' 4" 128 lb woman) in a size Small, olive green.This sweater runs a little small pretty much everywhere except for the neck, which is large, and the sleeve length, which were a tad long, but it is very warm, with closely knit fibers that block wind and cold. The zippers are weirdly placed, but they do help cool one off/allow some air when needed. The fabric is soft and comfortable, and the furry lining is very soft, but it stops at the chest for some reason and instead has a mesh lining there.It washed well, and I hung it to dry, and it maintained its shape and color perfectly.Worn on safari in Africa during winter, and it helped to keep me warm, and was a great shade of green for that purpose, pretty much as depicted.

nice
these are very nice i bought a 2x which is way to big for me but i knew that. i would usually get x large but they didn't have it in that size. and at that i think the x large would be to big so i just ordered another 2 in large.the only beef i have is that i must of got someones return it had no tags and came in a zip loc bag,maybe that's how it comes no biggie. i hope they get more sizes in,when i get the large in i will write a review on how that fits. im 6'2 200 pounds athletic cut.....i just received my other order and i got the large which fit me perfect.mind you these are suppose to fit snug.and i do wear a thin shirt under the zapt pullover.and if it helps anybody, not sure how to measure sleeve length but from inside my armpit to my wrist it is 24 inches and it sits perfect

Disappointment and crushed dreams
I'd been wanting to buy this jacket for a year and finally pulled the trigger. First impression was the material feels warm and heavy duty. Weirdly it has almost no stretch. I'm 5'11/190/muscular. The large fit perfectly, snug but not tight, except like another commenter said, the neck was too low and uncomfortably stiff. My wife turned to look and immediately said "No! It's terrible, send it back." I went to the mirror and she was right. It looked like a black fuzzy version of the paper gowns they have at hospitals. The two zippers at the neck are bizarre and it looks ridiculous unzipped. I was so bummed. Pros - it's thicker than a typical fleece pullover. Cons - looks terrible, collar is stiff and chafes, zip function is useless, expensive, and my wife hates it. Would not recommend.
