this did shrink in the wash but after a few wears it did stretch back out for the most part
Men's AKHG Crosshaul Cotton Hoodie Sweatshirt
Backwoods. Blockfields. Deep wild campsites. All good places to shred a hoodie. While the occasional scrape never bothered you much, cotton could never quite claim the same. And then TOUGH COTTON™ came along. The fabric treatment reinforces cotton so it lasts 3x longer in abrasion tests, making this sweatshirt fit for hands-on, pull-no-punches tasks without losing softness or breathability. And while it wears like armor, it never moves like it, with Reach Gussets® that let you get your arms around any tough task.

It's a nice tailored close fitting sweatshirt if that's your thing, could use a longer cut in the torso and the flexible side seams from the souped up hoodie. The cotton is fine but sure hasn't worn tough so far. After a few casual wears the washes the edges around the front of the hood look worn and a little frayed and the dye color reads more very dark grey next to true black sweats.
I ordered this one and the Souped-Up Sweats Pullover Hoodie in a 2xl for my boyfriend as an oversized sweatshirt (he usually wears a large). this one was definitely smaller than the Souped-up hoodie and felt more like a XL in comparison. however after washing both of them shrunk and the Souped up ended up being more like an XL and this one fits more like a large. it is warm and comfortable but is not near as big as i was hoping it would be.
Ordered the item in 2021, thick and warm. This version in 2024 is half as thick. Getting cheap
This was my first AKHG purchase. This sweatshirt fits perfect especially around the shoulders, arms! You know how clothing sometimes looks awesome on mannequins but sloppy on self? This one looks like it is supposed to. AKHG/Duluth please keep churning out stuff like this! One thing to note: It does run a little smaller than what I am used to from Duluth sizing, but I liked the fit so much I kept it.
