Fits true to size
Size: 13 Years, Color: Light Blue
This hoodie fits true to size. It’s high quality, cozy inside and we love the blue color. I would consider it a great value for the price. We will be buying more colors for sure.

Sizing is not accurate!
Size: 9 Years, Color: Light Blue
I bought this for my granddaughter, who is 8 years old, and typically wears a size 8. I purchased the size 9, she likes oversized hoodies, even though the add already says it’s oversized. It was MAYyBE a size 6, it was tight on my six year old granddaughter. I sent it back, and am not reordering. I’m not going to keep guessing on sizing. I want to know that when I order the size she wears in Nike, Adidas, Target,etc. , that it’s going to be the same, and not have to keep returning items…

Loved these and they fit. Nice and warm for a chilly summer evening at the beach, and looked great with summer pastels.

True to size, good quality
Size: 3T, Color: White, Size: 3T, Color: White
Great quality sweatshirts. I bought white to tie dye. They held the dye really well! They are true to size, but a little bit longer than most shirts. They fit my kids really well. They have also held up well in the wash, no shrinking at all!
