Shipping Protection

bought it with my own money from work. black, medium, and its baggy like i wanted, sleeves cover my knuckles until i push them up. first time i zipped the whole thing over my face i just stood in front of the mirror for a minute. the gold zip going up past your nose is kind of crazy. wore it to youth group and two people asked where its from.

I'll be honest, the face covering made me hesitate, but my son asked for this one specifically and it was the verse on the chest that sold it for him. I ordered with plenty of time in hand and it arrived in two weeks, so no stress there. I checked the embroidery properly because I assumed it would be printed, and it isn't. You can feel the raised stitching around the sleeves. I got him a large and he's 5'10 and it hangs off him, but I gather that's how they wear them now. He's barely taken it off since it came.

I lead the high school group at our church. Bought the black one for myself and the kids went straight to the EPH 6:11 on the right chest. We'd been working through Ephesians 6 for a few weeks so it started a good conversation. The blackletter stitching is clean, no loose threads that I could find. The fleece is thick enough that I wore it as a jacket across the parking lot on a Wednesday night with only a tee underneath.

I look at construction before anything else. The thorn embroidery on both forearms is dense and sits flat on the sleeve, no puckering, which is usually where cheap embroidery gives itself away. The crest over the heart has the same density. The zip is metal and ran smooth the whole way up, no snagging when I took it over the face. The little cross pull has some weight to it. Cuffs and hem are ribbed and have held their shape so far. Body is boxy and long. I took my usual size and it's properly oversized.

It sat in my cart for about four days. $39.99 seemed low for this much embroidery and I figured the fleece would be thin. It isn't. Heavy, brushed on the inside, deep kangaroo pocket. Shipping was free, it took around two weeks, and I had 30 days to send it back if I hated it, which is the only reason I pressed the button. Not sending it back.

Own three now: two black, one white. I wore the first one so much I ordered a second black as a spare, then the white came after. Every one took about two weeks to get here, never longer. XL on the black ones, 2XL on the white because I wanted that one huge. The embroidery matches across all three, thorns look the same on each forearm and the EPH 6:11 sits in the same spot every time.

Used it as my jacket for the walk to the gym at around -5C. Zipped all the way with the inner layer over my face, my ears stopped hurting. Breath fogs up the inside around the eye slit though, so I unzip the face part before I cross the road. Too warm to lift in, so it comes off once I'm inside. The kangaroo pocket holds my phone and keys fine.

Properly heavy and the zip is real metal, not plastic. Two weeks to get here.

I'm 58 and I'm sure this was made for people a third my age. I bought it for the verse. Ephesians 6:11 is the one my wife has on the fridge. I zip it to the chest and leave the hoods alone. I tried the face part once in the hallway mirror and my wife told me to take it off, so that's that. It goes over a collared shirt fine for church on Sundays. I went a size up from what I normally take and it's very baggy, which suits me.

Worried a white one would look grubby within a week. So far the gold looks better on the white than it does in the black photos. Size S, I'm 5'4, the sleeves cover my hands and the hem sits mid-thigh. People notice the thorn embroidery on the forearms first, a couple of friends thought it was a bracelet from across the table.

Black, large. I'm 6'1 and it fits the way I wanted, loose through the body. One note: with the inner layer zipped over your face the slit is narrow and your side vision is basically gone, so I don't wear it like that on the bike or crossing roads. Walking around it's fine. Everything else is solid. The forearm thorns and the EPH 6:11 are stitched, you can see the thread direction.

Bought it because it looked class. I'll be straight about that. I wasn't thinking about the verse at all. Looked up Ephesians 6:11 after it turned up and the hood, the shield on the chest, the arrows, it all made sense. I wear it to the gym in the morning with just the outer hood up. The fleece is thick but I don't overheat before I've started.
