Cowl Neck Fleece Tunic

How long is the medium from shoulder to hem? And the small?

A shopper on Oct 8, 2015

BEST ANSWER: The medium is 30 1/2 inches; I liked this item so well that I ordered another one last winter, and will order
a third one in red this year. Perfect length - covers my thighs well and washes up really nice. Have received many compliments on this dressy sweatshirt!

Mine is a large. It is 31 inches from shoulder to hem. It is beautiful and I bought 2 of them. It is like a dress-up sweat shirt. I love the cowl neck. Hope this helps.

does this sweatshirt shrink in the dryer?

A shopper on Jan 10, 2016

BEST ANSWER: It does not appear to. I wash in cold water and dry on low/delicate. As a matter of fact, I attempted to shrink this item after losing weight by washing and drying on hottest settings -- no go! I loved it so much, I gave up and got the smaller size! Actually, I'm wearing it right now! Warm, the neckline keeps me warm and love the pockets! Also, for once, somebody made a longer roomy tunic without adding 4" to the sleeves! You'll love it!

I have had mine for 2 years and have had no shrinkage- for the first couple of washings I hung it to dry. No problems after that.

Some comments note that colors are different than those expected. Could someone comment on he deep aqua? I would have considered it a green but poor color perception. Thank you

Linda L M on Jan 4, 2017

BEST ANSWER: I have the "deep aqua" and the "deep blue sea" fleece tops. In the catalog and on the website, both of those colors appear to be a medium to dark shade. They are not. When they arrived, they color was about half as strong as they appear. Most of the ads for them appear to backlit, or the model is in shade. I would have preferred darker, at least a medium color, but since I just wanted something comfortable to wear around the house, I kept them. They fit OK, and they are warm and comfy. If you want to match something that is a dark, rich shade of blue-green, or a deep blue, these are much lighter, more like a pastel. I hope this helps. (I did also order a black top. It is true to color description).

Thank you for your response and explanations. It seems that enough people have commented on the issue of incorrect color representation that Blair should do something to fix; either change names of colors to represent the true shade or adjust colors on site and in catalog.

Hope this isn't imposing but perhaps you would answer one other question. Does the neckline come up high enough to keep neck warm? I realize that is subjective but your comments would be appreciated.

If my fleece is the aqua...well, I'd call it green, too. I love these but I would say that the colors are somewhat different than the images and I've looked at it on more than one device. That said, I own three (the "aqua" the blue and black) and I love them. I'd buy more colors if they had more that I liked.

I think I ordered a deep aqua, but ended up with a forest green. I wore it for awhile, but green is not my favorite color so gave it away. But, I do have my red and blue ones still. They are warm, comfortable, and a little more feminine that a plain sweat shirt.

I usually think of aqua as halfway between blue and green, while this tunic is definitely farther onto the green spectrum. I wear it with green beach glass jewelry.

Is the blue as vibrant as the picture? If not are you still pleased with the shade it is and please describe?

Muffin on Oct 27, 2016

BEST ANSWER: Yes, it is that vibrant, but I would say the shad is a tad off. It is more of a combo of this shade and a little grayer colonial blue. And I am incredibly pleased with these tunics. I have ordered four of them in different colors. They wash and dry beautifully, and I practically live in them. I live in the Pacific Northwest, so our winters are wet and chilly (not a lot of snow, but can be bone chilling.) I LOVE these things. The cream colored goes with everything, the red is more of a rose color that I love, and the teal/aqua green is terrific too. I highly recommend these.

I normally wear a 12 top or med. Which size do you think I need in this at 5ft, 2in. ?

Muffin on Oct 27, 2016

BEST ANSWER: I wear a size 14 - 16 and I ordered the med and large. I can wear both, but the large is roomier. So for a size 12 the medium should be fine. As for the length, I love the longer lengths. I am 5'3" and it hits me on the upper thigh. No where near the knees. Looks great with leggings. Hope this helps.

I normally wear a 14 and I purchased a size Large, but I am 5'9", so maybe you should buy a medium? The large works well for me in the length of the sleeves, and general length. A large would be too long on you in my opinion. It has washed well and not shrunk.

I usually wear a medium or size 10. I ordered small and it is a little snug under the arms, but wouldn't want it any bigger. It is very generous through the body and does not fit snug.

A medium would probably be okay, but wouldn't leave much extra room. if you like your clothes loose fitting, i would get a large.

Does the neckline come up high enough to keep neck warm? Realize this is subject to body size but Comments would be very much appreciated.

Linda L M on Jan 4, 2017

BEST ANSWER: I usually don't like cowl necks, and never wear turtlenecks because they make me too hot, but I wanted something to keep my neck warm on a cool day. This cowl neck does the trick for me; it's high enough to keep the cool air out, without feeling like it's choking me around the neck. I normally wear an XL, but the large fits me perfectly. On me, the neckline of the Large fits just like the picture shows. I liked it so much, I ordered the blue, teal and red. I wore the red for Christmas this year and got compliments on the color. The blue is a pretty blue, and the teal is more like a teal green than a teal blue. I love the teal color. This top also looks nice with a long necklace or long hanging scarf, which actually dresses it up a bit. It's pretty soft, too. I was very pleased with these tops.
