Tip:  for the best fit to your shape and comfort try the sweatshirt on before purchase.  The fit over clothes should be a loose, baggy feel.  A men’s size will give you extra length.  The sweatshirt will shrink as much as 2” in width and 3” in length.  The sample is made from a man’s medium sweatshirt.

 

 Prepare the sweatshirt by washing it 2-3 times in hot water and drying in a hot dryer after each wash.
