So I had just been looking for an easy halloween costume and came across this gem. I secretly just wanted this cus it looked awesome so Halloween was my excuse, essentially so I ordered it and did not expect too too much since I know Spirit Hoods can cost a lot and this was so cheap in comparison. But I received it and was pleasantly surprised, it is so soft! And appears to be made really well. I had no problems with the fur yet, and the mitts are so warm and cute. The pocket is a nice addition as well! I was possibly the warmest dressed Halloween party goer, since I am in college and you know how that goes..., and I think I looked really cute. Add some wolfy makeup and done! And tail etc... But anyway after Halloween, though I never really wanted to wear it randomly because I thought that would be weird it got really cold and so I wore it a few times since. It is just the warmest hood... ever. Really fun! Love it! Don't care if I look out of place, I'm warm.
