Fantastic service, easy to use website
Fantastic service, easy to use website. Brilliant price, fast cheap delivery.
The jacket exactly as you'd expect from Swazi. Nice soft fleece well made fits in all the right places. All I would say. In my opinion and experience . Sizing runs a wee bit small. Unless your afa "race" fit. So I reordered the next size up. Perfect. Wiggle room, no fear of me reaching out and the sleeves riding up. Hood snuggles down great for those colder windier days.

I have a couple of them
I have a couple Hoods and really, really like them. Comfortable and warm. Excellent as a shirt on very cool days. If they had zippered hand pockets they would be perfect.

Swazi hoodie
As usual it arrived quickly and I was so impressed with the quality, feels lightweight but it's extremely warm and the fit is near perfect... Nice long back to keep your seat warm too. It won't be long before I add a couple more colours to my collection.

Light but very warm and windproof
Hi
Love this fleece. Thin but windproof and light enough to wear under a rain jacket.
Very happy with it and a great fit. Good length on arms and back.
Will be returning to New Forest clothing
