I'm female, but I bought one of these for myself. I saw it very much on sale at my local feed store on a day with negative temps and it called to me. I love it! The furry lining in body and hood is soft and cuddly. The sleeves are not lined but their fleece is thick enough to keep my arms warm. The thumb hole thing works fine, and the cuffs have enough stretch to be pushed back to my elbows when needed. The pockets are deep enough to be good hand warmers. It's not the most flattering garment for a woman to wear, but it feels really, really nice on a bitterly cold day.
