Ovik Fleece Hooded Jacket - Men's

Not up to expectations

I definitely don’t recommend this garment. It is bubbled really badly like a cheap fleece.

Do not buy.

Great fit and comfort, but pills up everywhere almost immediately. Pills turn white and threads now coming apart. Fjallraven does not care.

Almost a keeper

I’m 5’8 210 lbs. with a six pack. Wide shoulders. Size large Hoodie fits great except for the sleeves are too long. The waist of the hoodie also has no stretch so I can’t get it over my butt. The rim of the hoodie also has no give so I can’t put it on when it’s fully zipped. Quality however is great. Maybe more tailored for taller non muscular guys.

Order a size larger

I returned this product before using it

This jacket runs small. Order one size larger than you usually wear.

Sharp! But could use improvements

Let me start by saying I love the hoodie. It’s comfortable, looks sharp, and the materials are all high quality. For some reason, the material they chose to line the hood and hem along the bottom with has no stretch at all. You are not able to put the hood on if it is zipped up. I think giving those areas a bit of stretch would be a big improvement.

Terrific service, great product!

I received my Övik Fleece Hoodie today and it's every bit as good as I hoped. The fit is spot on and the construction and materials easily justify the price. This is my first experience with Fjallraven and I'm very pleased.

Not durable

Loved the design and fit, however the fabric began pilling severely after about a month of light (mostly around the house) wear. Unfortunately it now looks worn and sloppy. I would not recommend purchasing.

Awesome hoodie

Best hoodie I’ve had in a while—and I’ve definitely owned a few. It is so soft and comfortable and fits perfectly—feels conforming but not at all tight or constricting. (“Athletic” build with broad shoulders and slimmer waist) Function for the weather and fashion for a casual night out. Only worn it a couple times so far and have already had a few people ask where I got it.

The zipper situation ruins this hoodie

I love everything about this hoodie, except the double zipper. You want to be able to connect the zipper and zip the hoodie up without thinking about it, and maybe even not looking at it. Unfortunately that isn't possible with this hoodie. You *have* to verify that you've inserted the non-zipper side all the way into two zippers before you can tug one and zip up the hoodie. I would say I got it right maybe 3 out of ten times without taking a few extra moments to verify and/or readjust it. That might seem like a small detail, but I can almost guarantee that you normally operate a zipper on a jacket without thinking about it. As soon as you have to start wondering about the zipper on your hoodie, it gets annoying pretty fast. This morning I thought I had the zipper ready to pull and I pulled a few teeth off the zipper. So it's going back. I can't imagine this double-zipper setup lasting more than a few months since it's so easy to get it wrong and damage the zipper.

Awesome hoodie

Versatile hoodie can be worn with jeans or out on a hike. Not overly warm with breathable technology, which is a must for me. Love the zipped pockets and the leather detailing. G1000 reinforcements add to its robust build. One minor criticism is that the sleeve cuffs are a tiny bit too large/wide. Nothing major though.
