I wanted something warm and comfy for those cool times around the house or running out to the store. The material is just right and not too heavy. The hood is more like a tunnel of material with a drawstring that allows you to use it as a hoodie or wear as a cowl neck. So far I am happy with this product. It is very roomy. I haven't washed it yet, but the care label instructions say the following: 40°C water wash, do not bleach, hang dry, dry clean 110°C, do not dry clean, made in China. Not sure about the conflicting label about dry cleaning. I will update the review once it has been washed also. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0762KYKMG/ref=twister_B0753FXTTH
