This Relaxed Classic zip hoodie is as well-made, cozy and as nicely tailored as you'd expect from American Giant. As a non-tall person I'm particularly happy that it's shorter in the body than the original Classic Zip--the Classic is too long on my 5'7" self for my taste.

This hoodie looks and feels great. I originally bought a size small but returned it and got an extra small because of how baggy it was. I normally wear size small to medium in jackets. The material of the hoodie is soft and comfortable and it looks very sharp. One major flaw though is the zipper. It gets stuck every time I try to unzip it.
