I have been looking for a cute, lightweight zip hoodie forever.  I was really excited about this product, but sadly it runs MASSIVE.  Not only was the body too big it was long enough to come to the bottom of my hips, and the sleeves (even cuffed) covered my fingers. I'm 5'9"!  I tried pulling it up to a more reasonable place on my hips, but it made the zipper bow out because the fabric of the hoodie is so light.  I think that it won't shrink in the wash as it's mostly poly, and going down a size won't solve the problem either- it's just too long for my taste.  The fabric is fine, the construction is fine, it just fit me goofy.  Better luck to other ladies!
