I needed to replace my lightweight all-cotton hoodie after the sleeves became frayed from heavy use. I first bought a Fruit-of-the-loom hoodie which was 60 % and 40% polyester. It was soft, lightweight and looked great but provided very little warmth. It also did only a fair job of wicking away moisture when I wore it for a jog.I next bought the Hanes Ultimate Hoodie, which is also a single-layer hoodie, but contains 85-90% cotton. The cloth is also thicker than the Fruit-of-the-Loom hoodie, so the Hanes hoodie did provide the warmth I wanted. As a single-layer hoodie, I still consider this to be a light-weight hoodie, but if you live in California or another warm-climate state where no-one wears double-layered hoodies, you might consider this to be medium-weight.Now for the fit. I am 5'6" and weight 158 lbs. so I bought a medium size hoodie. I knew the Hoodie comes oversized to allow for shrinking, so I didn't panic when I took it out of the package and found like a large size hoodie. After washing it and shrinking it in the dryer, it fit perfect. Some of the reviewers noted that the zipper doesn't lie completely flat after washing. Yes, that's sort-of true, but the effect is so minimal that I would not have noticed if it were not for the other reviewer's complaint. Another review complained that the material felt rough. Well, if you are used to wearing polyester, I guess that's true. The hoodie is made out of cotton, and it feels exactly the same as every other cotton hoodie that I have owned.
