As a farmer who raises sheep I am always on the hunt for products that use wool. A good friend of mine who lives in Montana was out this summer and showed me another product from VOORMI made of wool. U.S sewn! I got this as I like this style as an under layer and it is great. I sized up to a Large. This style and size is a bit form fitting, tight in the torso if you are barrel chested. The other issue is the wool is imported as it says so. It would be an even better domestic product if the wool was U.S. sourced. Given the price, it would be even more expensive but well worth the it.

I bought this hoodie in the yellow striated color for my Voormi loving husband last Christmas. He LOVES it! He wears it all the time in all weather and circumstances. He loves the hood, weather resistance, and the cut and fit (not too big in the torso as he is a tall, athletic man). He says it's one of his favorite pieces of gear he owns!

We love VOORMI ! My husband has two jackets and a pullover and I have one of each. Our favorite thing is that it doesn’t make you sweat like other materials. When it’s chilly and then warms up , you are cozy but never jump to sweltering hot. We love the water resistance and in the unpredictable weather, it’s perfect. I’ve been drenched before and barely felt the moisture . It’s perfect in the drizzle and dries fast without ever reaching your skin . Voormi also shortened his sleeves and made the fit perfect ! We keep one jacket in Colorado home and one in Texas . Works great for both climates! Thanks for catering to our every need!

I was skeptical at first of Voormi's wool outerwear, but the garments have really held up in nasty cold and wet weather so far. I don't get hot wearing this piece inside, either. I also bought the mittens and a pair of ski socks, and they are just as impressive. Buy it, support Voormi!
Andrew S.
Love it, but the sizing is all over the place. Suggest going to retail outlet for a perfect fit. Awesome quality and function.
Patrick R.
Outstanding piece of gear! Living on the shores of Lake Erie in Northeast Ohio we deal with some pretty extreme weather conditions and I spend a lot of time outdoors enjoying it. I’m absolutely impressed with this hoodie, it has excellent breathability, seemingly durable and I love the way it fits and it’s got some style to it. The quality of construction is top notch. Highly recommended.
Brendan M.
The only piece of my kit besides my knife that doesn't change no matter what I'm hunting. Stretches to accommodate layers yet stays snug when on its own. Compact enough to stash on approach and tough enough to be an outer layer on mild days. Big fan of the simple pocket design.
Carole L.
Perfect to wear around the house or hiking, skiing. So extra warm for the weight.
Chris H.
I use the high-e hoodie daily. I now own 4 of them and my son has one as well. Works well for my active outdoors life and in all weather conditions. The perfect mid layer!
Jim L.
I generally wear a large however the High E is a very trim fit and a base layer will not fit under it. The hood when down looks poor since more than one half of it is off to one side of your torso. I will be donating this garment since I cannot wear it:
Amy A.
Voormi is a brand that 100% stands by the product they produce and I highly recommend you buy their products! My husband's High-E Hoodie has been repaired twice and is still going strong. First repair was for a faulty zipper and it was replaced for free. Second repair was because he caught it on a nail, and this repair looks great! I'm sure he will get many more years of use out of this hoodie.
Brian K.
Love Voormi more than anything
Jason M.
Gift recipient loves it, but then he is the person who has the whole family wearing Voormi products. He has the same item in a Sz Med and that is what was originally ordered, but it had to be exchanged for a Large.
Dave F.
I've admired this hoodie for over a decade, since one of my friends got one. The premium price and fact that I already had a number of technical hoodies kept me from purchasing until now. I stopped by the Voormi store on my way through Pagosa Springs, and was surprised to find a major discount on Spring sale. I normally take a 'large' in men's tops, but I have very large shoulders and chest, and the Voormi large was very snug and a struggle to slide on over my base layer. Size XL fit me better, though the sleeves were an inch or so too long, and the body length was generously long (but I like that, giving extra warmth by completely covering my behind and staying below the waist when reaching over my head). The Voormi rep offered to have them hem up the sleeves at a very reasonable fee, but I've decided to keep it as is. The extra length stays above my hands when I want it to, but can be pulled down to fully cover my hands, helping when I don't have gloves with me.
I love the look and feel of this piece. It is fairly heavy and bulky, so I may not be taking it backpacking or mountaineering, but for day trips and climbs, backcountry skiing, hikes, and just around town, it will get a lot of use. Blocks wind better than any fleece or wool garment that I've owned. The cut of the hood is awesome, giving great protection to the neck, chin, forehead, and face. It has resisted odors so far, after doing some heavy trail-building work wearing it. The pass-through front pockets are great for warming hands, and the inner chest pocket was a welcome surprise.
Philip R.
Love the hoodie - be patient getting used to the hood. Once used to it is one of my favorite tops I have purchased for all activities
Wayne K.
Well constructed, quality, midlayer. I've done about 110+ miles in PNW (winter) hiking over the past 2 weeks in this piece and do love it. Since no one reads reviews for the positive stuff, here are my gripes:
- The thumb holes are far too small.
- Could be a tad longer in the back (rides a bit with a pack on).
- When the snorkel hood is up its a bit tight around the neck/throat.
- Glasses (sun or prescription) are a bit of a pain with the hood up.
- I'm honestly not a huge fan of the 'kangaroo' front pocket.
Dianna C.
My son loves all your products. He is a fly fisherman and has a good eye for style and quality.
Dustin
Easily the most versatile and well thought out piece of outdoor gear that I own. Picked mine up at The Backpacker’s Shop in Sheffield, OH. The finest gear shop and outfitter in the Midwest.
Colin D.
Got this in the Fishpond COLAB version (one of the last available) as an early birthday gift and already love it more than I thoughtI would when I first saw it via Fishpond years ago. Looks and feels amazing. Love the layout, especially the Kangaroo pocket, wore it fishing today as an outer layer, my only two small notes or a possible complaint is if you wear the hood fully zipped up its a little tight in the neck and I would still recommend having a proper jacket on cold especially windy days, even with layering underneath the cold can penetrate but still awesome product and wouldn't trade it.
Shane E.
I heard about this on Ramsey Russels podcast, Duck Season Somewhere. Duck Hunting, Skiing, Snowmobiling, and lounging at home. This is my best mid layer, and often times outer layer. Yesterday in 10 degrees duck hunting, my dog was getting cold so I put my coat on my dog and only had a base layer and high e hoody on. I was shocked that I was able to sit for another three hours in the blind without a heater and stay warm. When I got home with the thermostat set at 68, I still was in the hoody and was quite comfortable. I love how versatile this hoody is and how the wool/ nylon/ polyester mix is so adaptable in different temps! I can’t wait to try-due my whole layering system with Voormi!
Timothy S.
I’ve been searching for a good hoodie for hunting and the high e hoodie was finally what I was looking for. Light weight yet warm. Excellent front zippered pocket that’s good for your hands as well as storing gear. The hood is amazing as when fully zipped up it acts as a balaclava and will protect you from freezing temperatures.
Brendan
Great midlayer for hunting. I'll wear this for the approach and throw my shell on to glass and be nice and toasty. Doesnt block a ton of wind but great static warmth. thumb loops ftw
Patrick M.
Compared to my L Voormi vest, it ran small an I had to return for XL. Very warm. Love the design. Perfect mid layer for very cold days and outer layer for cool to cold days.
Chris
I wanted to like the piece but returned it in the end and kept the Treeline in the same size (L). The High E fit like a heavy base layer and I would have gotten a larger size if I was going to keep it but would have possibly made it too baggy for me to layer over. I was also not convinced of the hood design as it was all over the place unzipped and pressed my throat when it was. If it was a wee bit more relaxed of a fit or didn't have the hood I probably would have kept it. I liked the pocket position and the construction was great.
Filippo P.
It's my go -to "tool" from late summer to freezing cold, is odor free, and the "red rock" color is perfect to blend in the autumn landscape both here in Italy where I live, that in North Canada where I love to hunt and fish. I am so pleased for the quality of my High E (it was a present from a group of friends), that for sure I will buy another one. Thank you for this great product.
Filippo - Rome, Italy
Pat B.
After years of wearing Voormi in all seasons, family and friends have seen the quality, value, and durability in your garments I already know. So these days I buy a lot of gifts for said family and friends. Keep up the great products.
William J W.
Wore this on the last day of the season at Taos, 4/3/2021.
Filippo P.
I like it, it's pretty well built and the quality is outstandig - it's just too tight on the arms. I can say I have an "athletic" shape but it really runs too "wrapped" on my arms. For the rest, I will buy Voormi again and again.
Tyrell W.
This is my favorite hoodie of all time. I ordered a second one in Blowdown once they came out with that pattern. I'm not sure if it's an update or just a fluke but the thumb holes on this new High E Hoodie are closer to the cuff, essentially extending the length of the sleeve when in use when compared to the older model I've owned for several years. For me that's a good thing as the older model is just a touch short for my long arms. Everything else appears to be the same hoodie I've come to rely on over the last few years. Once I wear one of these out I'll be replacing it with another of the same!
Parker S.
Would love to see this color in rain/ outside shell. This is perfect for duck hunting and would switch everything I have if all was available in that color scheme
Matt G.
Was told to buy xxl. Might be a bit big. Hood is a little big and zipper at V exaggerated the look.
Warm though!
Mary D.
I have to say this has become my FAVORITE hoodie!!!
It’s warm, even when wearing it light rain I’ve remained completely comfortable and warm (and I HATE being chilly/cold or getting caught in the rain) Awesome Hoodie!!!
Joel G.
love it but it runs a bit tight. unless that's as designed. i'm pretty thin and it's a bit tight onme.
great hood and warmth.
Daniel L.
I like to wear this hoodie with a base layer or by itself. With a base layer ill wear it down to 30F if im active and 40s if im chillin. It's comfortable all the way up into the 70s and wicks away moisture. A great california outdoor hoodie for all our micro climates.
Katie B.
I purchased this for my husband and he absolutely loves it! It fits him perfectly, he wears it while snowmobiling and it's the perfect layer!
Bryan M.
Love it. Snug athletic fit allows for a single thin layer underneath but not much else. Very warm w/ tight weave that blocks out most wind. Hood has very high gaitor collar that does a great job of blocking wind and holding onto body heat..... also doubles as a mask in a pinch.
Looks great, feels great and looks very well made from quality materials. I have little doubt that i will still be loving this layer in 5-10 years after some serious wear
Debbie K.
It was way too thick for a base layer as advertised. Hard to tell online how thick a layer is. Was looking for something much thinner.
Sarah C.
I like the quality of Voormi. But this "athletic fit" size large was too small in the chest, shoulders and arms. The sleeves were too long. A different size wasn't going to work so I sent it back.
Russell B.
This is just a solid hoodie/mid that performs like a boss. It doesn't bunch, flexes with movement, keeps your core toasty, and keeps you looking fresh! I'll never leave home without it.
Robert T.
I like a little loose so sized up to Large. Fits perfect with a base layer. very satisfied with purchase.
Ted H.
This is a great jacket - wonderful mid-layer. It is a "technical" fit - hard to get anything underneath... Once it is on - no problem moving on hikes and fat-biking. I have gone back and forth thinking about getting an x-large to be more of a jacket... Will see what happens...
Jason L.
This is just one more add to my Voormi collection. I’m proud of the quality that I spend my hard earned dollars on!
Kathy M.
Was given as a gift to a friend. He was aesthetic about it because he always wanted one but couldn’t afford it.
Mark R G.
I’ve only had to wear a few times but this past week when winter landed in our front door, I’ve had a chance to get out on a few nice hikes with this on. Fit ran a little snug so I chose to go with XL and it’s perfect. Kept me warm but not overly hot / sweaty. I had a bit of snow and mixed rain & snow fall on me and instead of getting soaked, it repelled off nicely. I’m excited to slap the skins in and start earning my turns with this as my new mid layer this winter :)
Geoffrey W.
You guys make the best outdoor wool products out there....well worth the $$.
Thank you for all you do!
Geoff
Tyler F.
As my first VOORMI product, I wasn't sure what to expect. Once I got it, the sweatshirt didn't disappoint. I wore it on a cooler weekend up north in Wisconsin. The sweatshirt kept me warm, but also wasn't overly bulky. I definitely will be purchasing more from this company!
Duane M.
Nice technical wool mid weight! Can’t wait to try it on some snowshoeing trips.
Todd S.
Pullover High E hoodie is great. Purchased and took to Wyoming for hiking. Was great on both hikes with just a shirt at 38 degrees start. Highly recommend
Lonnie L.
My favorite garment
Mark G.
Best product of all my voormi is this high e-hoodie. I normally wear a large in everything I own. But I went XL and can actually fit a shirt or thin layer or two underneath this and still be comfortable so size up if you are going to layer underneath more than one layer.
Graydon V.
This hoody is great. The wool is warm and soft, very comfortable for lounging around or outdoor activities like hiking or biking.
Douglas H.
I've been eyeing Voormi gear for a while now, turned on originally by a couple of blogs on "surface hardened" technology for wool, and high-country USA roots. I had my eye on a Convex vest, at first, but my favorite color was sold out. And what I really NEED is a winter mid-weight garment for daily hiking in the hills and mountains of the Northeast. We get lots of damp and chilly days in the 20's & 30's that seem much colder than the colder-but-dry bluebird ski days of Colorado. My monster dog (a Bouvier) demands a 3-5+ mile hike daily, and the weather is never an obstacle to him. Long-story short: I bought a Voormi High-E Hoody in size M and it's wonderful! I've had good success wearing it over a thin baselayer, and beneath a lightweight windbreaker or shell. In the couple of weeks I've had it, I've worn it in a range of seesawing weather conditions ranging from a low in the 20's to a high of 48, including rain, a driving snowstorm, and several days of high wind and breaking tree limbs. As of today, eight days straight, usually at a fast pace and climbing/descending moderate to steep climbs. The High-E has mostly solved moisture management for me, once I learned to trust its warmth and not overdress. Two days ago, I was out for several hours in a spring snowstorm, only a few inches but wet sleet and drizzle mixed in. I had a thin nylon windbreaker hoody (not waterproof) on top and was pleased to discover the inner fabric of my Voormi to be only slightly damp and my base layer practically dry, despite a driving wind. On a couple of the warmer days (lower 40's temps), I wore the hoody as an exterior layer over just a thin base. Each day I started a bit chilly (that full coverage hood is a blessing), but once I started climbing, I vented and achieved a nice equilibrium that lasted for hours. Too soon to say much about durability, but functionality has been terrific. Fit is snug but not tight, with the sleeves quite long, but not too long -- reaching overhead while climbing and I'm covered. This garment is perfect for my intended uses and I'm very thankful to all of you at Voormi for designing and building it.
Mark R.
Have worn this great top every ski day since my purchase in the home store at Pagosa Springs CO. Love, love it
Zackery A.
Im a ski patroller at Taos Ski Valley and have warn this hoodie almost every day since I've gotten it. I've been blown away by its quality and warmth! Much warmer than I expected, extremely comfortable, and not bulky. Im extremely satisfied with the High-E hoodie and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a warm mid layer that fits that frustrating temperature rage where "puff" insolation is too much but a thin mid layer isn't quite enough.
Mark M.
I spend quite a bit of time outdoors hunting and hiking. This sweater is warm and very weather resistant. I like everything about it outside of the fit, I went with the suggestion of a large by Voormi but Wish i would have followed my instincts, the sweater is rather tight with a long underwear shirt and tee shirt underneath.
Big Blue A.
Its a great mid-layer/outer-layer hoody. I'm 5' 7", 145 with a medium build. Then length is perfect but the arms and chest are a bit tight with a layer under the garment.
Gary K.
It is simply the best mid layer ever. It has replaced many clothing items I used for snowboarding I also wear it around town for its warmth and style. It has become my favorite!
Romeo A.
Awesome ! Great! I love it !!
James C.
This was my second Voormi product. Just like my access pullover, you feel the quality as soon as you pick it up. This has mostly replaced my winter coat. These breathe like nothing else and look better with wear..
Jeff F.
Great garment. Love everything about it. Awesome quality too.
Samuel J.
Most durable and cozy backcountry hoodie I’ve ever owned.
Ed S.
Awesome hoodie. Light layer underneath, light windproof shell on top and good to go in cold temps.
Vola N.
GIFT TO MY SON. HE LOVES IT. HE WORE IT OUT OF THE BOX ALL CHRISTMAS DAY. GREAT COLOR
Eric H.
Used it as my thermal layer while skiing at Alta. Didn’t need a face mask all day as the hoodie worked great.
John D.
I have purchased Voormi products for 5 years now. Some for myself and some for gifts. I was so impressed with the quality observed in the Pegosa Springs shop that I’ve bought 9 pieces since 2014 all with great reviews. My preference in the pieces is the breathability as well as warmth when it gets cold plus they keep you dry...unless you accidentally take a plunge...you’re on your own then....but they all do dry really fast..lol. Great products Voormi...keep up the quality and user-friendly designs!!!
Michael J.
I am a little late writing this review since I purchased this garment 3 years ago. Of the 6 Voormi garments I now currently own this one was the first. When I receiver the High-E Hoodie my initial impression was that it looked great but it didn't look like it would hold up very long given the extreme outdoor conditions we see here in Alaska. I was concerned that after a season or two of rain, snow, and bushwhacking it would stretch and fray then start to unravel. Now, after 3 years and countless miles of hiking, backpacking, snowshoeing, and mountain biking. I can say that my concerns were unwarranted. The High-E Hoodie has taken a beating but still shows little signs of wear. It breathes like no other non-Voormi outdoor garment that I own yet still keeps me warm, even on wet rainy days! Hands down this is my goto mid layer!
I am very impressed with the quality of Voormi outdoor clothing and highly recommend the High-E Hoody for anyone who spends time working or recreating in the great outdoors.
Darin A.
Spent 7 days in the E-hoodie elk hunting in Idaho’s backcountry...my new favorite outer besides my coats.

Been following since the original Kickstarter finally got one for my second deployment to Antarctica. Excited to test it out in the harshest of environments. #sponserme

Very warm but wide comfort range. Best suited movement-wise for the cooler half of the shoulder seasons plus winter (prime). Bulky compared to synthetic options. "Collar" when not wearing hood is excessive. Some wear noticed from pack straps where the unpadded webbing portion touches). The real gem of the piece is the broad comfort of wool and its ability to absorb moisture vapor as opposed to just liquid. It makes it very comfortable to wear on those days when output varies a great deal but is sure to go high at times. Those worried about external sources of moisture needn't be (unless genuinely raining or dumping very wet snow for extended periods. Those paranoid about rain might be better off sticking with known synthetic options. This might be the ultimate piece for someone living and active in a rural area.
Ryan B.
I own several different Voormi products and getting and typically a large is fine.... but I would have preferred and XL in the high-e. Even just wearing a t-shirt under it, it kind of fits just a bit too tight.... wearing a base layer under it would be uncomfortable.... as always the quality never disappoints.
Cory F.
My only gripe is with the hood, but it is a big gripe. First the craftsmanship an material is phenomenal. The cut is athletic and the length is definitely on the long side, but not so egregiously that it detracts from the piece (5'11 200, L). However, the hood is annoying. When the hood is zipped down Balaclava style high zip splays all over the place in a ridiculous manner that makes the rest of the piece look... well... ridiculous. When zipped the Balaclava high neck will choke you if you have anything other than a straw for a neck. I need to take this out as a piece under my gore-tex to see if it is salvageable there, or if it breaks in better with use. I want to love this, and hope I grow to if it breaks in right to use it while the hood is up, but I am pretty sure that it is a no go in public with the hood down.
Steve J.
fits great and seems very warm....love the look and feel of the fabric...a little expensive but well worth the cost to stay warm and dry....love the color, great product
Joe H.
The High-E Hoodie has quickly become my go-to this winter; it’s fantastic as an outer garment, or layered under a shell for long days on the windy slopes. The High-E’s design is well suited to retain heat and protect you from the elements when needed and dump excess heat quickly to prevent overheating.
The pass through zipper pocket is great for stowing gear or warming hands- a feature I really like! The shape of the hood helps keep it in place even if not completely zipped. The Thumb holes in the sleeves are sewn in a way that makes them unnoticeable to those of us who don’t typically use them, but they are very functional and easy to use if you so choose.
I’m very impressed with the High-E Hoodie and highly recommend it for anyone who spends time in the outdoors. Like the other Voormi products, I’m happy I made this purchase.
Michael K.
I purchased the High-E Hoodie prior to a ski trip in Telluride. The hoodie performed excellent. I wore it in both 30 degrees and clear one day and 22-30 degrees and driving snow/rain the next with just a vest over it. On the warmer day, I didn’t overheat, even while skiing, and on the colder day it kept me warm and dry. I would give it a perfect 5 except for the two following minor complaints. The first is the hood. Unless you intend to use this frequently with the face mask, it is rather awkward both on and off; I believe a regular hood option would be something people would very much like. The second minor complain is that the product contains some aggressive branding that is not shown in the online images. There is a large Voormi V mountain logo on both the right arm and on the upper back. I find this takes away from the wearability and isn’t my favorite on the eye. Very happy with my purchase, the color, fit, craftsmanship, and performance were all great.

Very pleased with all of my purchases from Voormi. Everything I have bought has exceeded expectations. I’m an avid backpacker and I frequent the Grand Canyon which is very rough on clothing. All items are holding up well when other manufacturers......not so much. I love the voormi line of clothing and they’ve got a customer for life here. I highly recommend you check them out. You won’t be disappointed.
Benjamin C.
Great. Love the full face hood. It replaces need for gator and can go on/off quickly when skinning. Fits well under helmet.
Adam C.
Great piece of gear! It is great shoveling snow, skinning up a trail, or as a mid layer on cold days. My go to!
David K.
This has been the most awesome midlayer for my snowboarding trip here in Japan. I can’t rave enough about it. Kept me warm in even some of the coldest, windiest conditions.
Greg W.
Bought this hoodie in January, 2019. Used it for the first time on 1-30-19 snowshoeing at Hearts Content area of ANF in NW PA. Temp. In town was -4 F. Guessing it was -5 to -8 up on the plateau, with wind chill at least -15 or so. Wore base layer of long underwear under the just the Voormi hoodie, no other shell or anorak. Stayed very comfortable while walking about 3 hours despite the cold. Was impressed by the wind blocking yet breathability capabilities of the material. Excellent versatility in the garment design in raising/lowering the hood and managing the front zipper both to mitigate the cold but also to keep from sweating. Also really appreciated the front pouch to use for liner gloves and facemask storage eliminating the need to continually access my day pack. In summary would at first pass definitely recommend the High-E Hoodie based on this singular but relatively cold, windy mid-winter outing in the Eastern U.S.
Mike B.
Yep, me again. I own a few. I just wanted to add that this is perfect for subzero ATV riding. It fits great under my full-face helmet. Zip it up, helmet on, chin strap over the hoodie face and enjoy super breathable warmth, even at high speeds. I have washed and dried these in the dryer without issue and without any signs of wear so far. A truly outstanding mid layer.
Zachary C.
Very High quality, fit is athletic which requires strategic layering.
Christian B.
Finally wore my High E while mountain biking in Pisgah. Cool, rainy day. The trail was a stream. I was warm and dry the whole time (5+ hours). Never overheated - this garment has excellent breathability. It is also very comfortable. The extra room is perfect for biking or any strenuous activities where you will be stretching or reaching a lot, and when you take a break it feels good just to relax in.
Highly recommended.
Christian B.
Love the style and even though it is a bit long it is very comfortable. For biking and paddling or if I need more than a thin base-layer or T-shirt underneath (it would have to be less than 30°) the extra room is actually good. It is just the right weight to feel well protected but still light.
I have yet to use it for more than moving kayaks in the rain in about 33° but it shed water easily and kept me warm. I love the hood.
Looking forward to hiking in the Smokies in the next week or so and really testing it in some cold and wet weather. My only complaint is minor: the kangaroo pocket forms a visible line across the middle of the stomach area under the outer layer.
Great product and I plan on making more purchases.
Michael B.
I have worn it off and on for the last two weeks (ok more like everyday). It has quickly become my go-to jacket that will keep me warm when it's either chilly or just brisk.
Marko B.
Absolutely love this rugged and ultra warm hoodie. My new favorite.
Paul G.
Very nice product!
David M.
Very warm and comfy hoodie. No complaints st all with performance so far. Color and appearance are very nice. The sizing, however, seems a bit off. I have a Voormi long sleeve T and short sleeve and the large of each fits me well. This hoodie seems to run small through the chest and long in the sleeves. If you are built like a Norwegian cross country skier, this will work well for you - if not, the fit is likely to be off, or at least very inconsistent with the fit of other Voormi products that I’m familiar with.
artel k.
I returned my High-E-Hoodie because of size. I ordered an “extra large” which was a tad big so I requested a RMA number and returned the item requesting a size “large”. UPS sent me an e-mail stating they had delivered the item Monday (9/24). I have heard nothing and when I received this review request I’m wondering where is the item I returned!!!
Andrew M.
Stopped by the store a few days ago to look at the products and this sweatshirt caught my eye. I am a wildland firefighter and a mountain bike guide and will be using this as my off-the-line cold weather gear as well as the main piece I use for guiding. I am 6’5” and have gumbi arms (37”). A large fits me perfectly with a little room to spare in the sleeve length. The material is outstanding. It is warm, soft and feels like it will stand up to the abuse I am guaranteed to give it. I am not nice to gear, and my River Run hoodie is still in one piece (I crashed on my mountain bike on Pikes Peak granite trail and it doesn’t have a single hole). It’s hard to find gear that fits me, I am slender with long arms so typically I need a XXL for sleeve length but a M for size, this Large fits me absolutely perfectly. It’s great to support a local company from a small town in my old neck of the woods. I used to have an addiction to Norrona and Patagonia, but not that Voormi is around and making superior products, I am going to be sticking with them for my needs from here on out. Let’s see some nice technical pack. On a side note, I don’t know what the complaints about the hood around the neck or the thumb holes are all about. The thumb holes fit my massive hands perfectly and the neck is very modern. Similar to some of my Norrona stuff. You have to get used to it because it is different than typical “patagucci” stuff that folds at perfect 90s from the neck, but I actually like the Voormi method better. Love this stuff!
Bruce W.
Great fit. Very comfortable
Andrew A.
i could not love this hoodie more. i wish i could wear it constantly. its super warm, thick, soft. the sleeves are long which keeps my handsies warm. i’m looking forward to fall float trips so i can show it off.
Nicholas C.
I love everything about this garment except the following two things :
1) I'm 6' 2" pushing 6'3". Even I feel it's a tad too long in the body and arm. Having said that, I'd rather have this than too short.
2) My biggest complaint is the manner in which the material, which makes up the cheek and chin panels sits when it's unzipped. It neither folds flat or looks flattering when in " place". It looks awkward at best and doesn't lay flat. It sticks up on one side and "wings out". Difficult to explain. In any case, I don't want to spend 5 minutes manipulating the material to sit in an appealing way. I like to look my best for the trout. ; )
Peter m.
Fits amazing. So comfortable. Out of the box my favorite shirt. The V logo is on the wrong arm. When I drive my bad ass pick up it isn’t on the arm hanging out the window. Just sayin
Brian M.
an excellent outer layer.
also feels so comfortable against my bare skin!!
