This lightweight hoodie for women is designed for high compressibility, making it easy to store in a gym bag or backpack. The 60/40 Cotton-Polyester blend features a moisture-wicking property that helps keep the wearer dry during light workouts. With a material density of 180–210 GSM, this jacket provides low thermal retention, making it most suitable as a thin outer layer for spring or fall rather than for insulation in winter.
Tests indicate that the #3 nylon coil zipper is a light-duty component that can be prone to splitting if subjected to significant bust tension. The serged overlock seams are standard for this weight class but may show wear at the sleeve junctions after heavy use. Additionally, the lack of metal aglets on the drawstrings may lead to fraying over time. To minimize the 4-7% shrinkage reported with this blend, it is best to avoid high-heat tumble drying.
If you require a sturdier build with higher-grade hardware, the Amazon Essentials Women's Hoodie offers a heavier fleece option. Explore our zip-up hoodies category to compare different fabric weights and styles.
