How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsSuper comfy and wife loves them (she's heavily preg). Have bought one of each colour.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 October 2017
Absolutely love these hoodies. I bought one of each colour. I only got the originals because they have nice metal clips on the end of the hood string. It's super comfy and my preg wife borrows these too. Realy good quality gear.

3.0 out of 5 starsQuality material but weird fit and the orange is a weird choice though
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 April 2021
I still wear the port Charles Wilson hoodie I bought nearly three years ago, usually by that point they'd be faded and ropey looking but aside from the odd bit of wear and tear it still looks and feels great so good quality hoodies

Odd fit though, quite a bit longer in the body than other xl hoodies I own yet more narrow when done up, also according to many other reviews you have to pay postage to return or exchange

Also I should have looked closer at the picture ( although it was hard to tell ) for the black one though, all the hoodies have an almost lappel effect inside of them if you wear them open ( which I always do ) on my port one it's white and I just assumed it would be for this too but it's actually orange and white

90% of the time I wear all black or black with some white, don't want really bright orange on my black hoodie but even aside from that it just seems like an odd decision for a black hoodie, photo doesn't quite convey but it's really bright orange, ruins the look of the whole thing for me

Hopefully a marker pen does the job

5.0 out of 5 stars Great zip up hoody!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 February 2018
Size Name: LColour Name: Deep Navy (0819)Verified Purchase
Needed a decent hoody for work, something that was big enough to be comfortable and didn’t have any logos. I’m a junior doctor and needed something to wear over surgical scrubs when on the wards. Ordered the large hoody and it fits really snug and will definitely last a while.
Would happily order the same or similar product from the manufacturer.
UPDATE - 12/12/18 Loved the hoody so much that I also bought the burgundy and black hoody as well. Colours are fading slightly, but that’s to be expected, considering they’re worn every week, but they’re still really comfy and look great! Would definitely recommend buying!

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice garment, but long in the body, and material pills easily.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 February 2018
Verified Purchase
Purchased for my son, who made these comments: Fit and feel of this hoody are great, with the exception of the body length. It is unusually long in the body in XL, even on a man with a long torso. You end up torn between folding it over or letting it bulge out. A non-zipped hoody could get away with the length, but this can't. The material is also disappointingly quick to pill, compared to similar tops. Most importantly, it is very comfortable, and length aside, it is the perfect fit as desired. Bear in mind these tops are designed for a snug fit, as opposed to a lot of brands.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definatly a great buy for tall men
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 September 2018
Verified Purchase
I was apprehensive about ordering without it being tried but checked reviews and felt a bit more confident. I needn't have worried, I ordered it for my dad. He's 6ft 4" has a bit of a tummy and always struggles to find anything to fit his arm length and nape of neck to waist. He was so pleased with it and wears it all the time. It actually has a bit of excess in the sleeves so they don't ride up his arms and the length in body is great too so doesn't ride up his back. It's lovely fabric and washes very well. I will be ordering more, highly recommend to anyone who struggles with their height clothes wise. It's not too thick but enough to keep the chill off.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality hoody - first time buying off Amazon!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 March 2021
Verified Purchase
Usually I don't buy clothing off Amazon, but after trying for ages to buy a nice deep-navy coloured hoody (only seem to get lighter blues or faded looking navy from the usual places like Asos, Next etc.) for casual use - I settled for this one.

The thickness of it is perfect - just the right amount to not feel too hot, but also not too thin that it feels cheap to touch. Colour is exactly what I was after, a deep navy - doesn't look faded, or too blue, nor is it too dark that it looks black.

My only issue is the fit. I'm 5ft 11" and built - usually mediums fit fine and I prefer a tighter / slim fit hoody. I bought both a Large and Medium - the Large was too baggy, it was drooping off my shoulders and upper back. But the Medium feels too small - it's tight in the right places, but too tight in others like around the waist...and makes me fear the elasticity will weaken. I think they need to make the Medium size just a little bigger on the waist.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hoodie strings will take eye out.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 March 2022
Size Name: LColour Name: Black (0819)Verified Purchase
Hard waring thick hoodie, The fit is ok, looks half decent, the orange trim near the inside colour looks strange, the Hoodies strings are too big, look stupid and the heavy metal fittings at the end WILL take your eye out its only a matter of time either putting it on or off or in the wind. I have to tuck them in for my own safety. happened twice now in 3 weeks and I'm blind in both eyes. My guide dog is a good boy though. It is warm! just doesn't look amazing. good for walks and around the house. I will replace the strings with thick boot lace once I figure out how and I've had my eye replacement surgery.

1.0 out of 5 stars Prepared to be covered in fluff
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 March 2021
Size Name: LColour Name: Port (0819)Verified Purchase
I loved this hoodie as soon as I put it on, but that has diminished over a few days due to some quality issues. First I noticed when I wore this to work while wearing a plain shirt, the inside sheds like a panicked cat. I looked like I had been rolling on the floor of a pot noodle factory as soon as I took it off. After a good patting down with sticky tape, I put the hoodie in the wash, inside out, to see if this rectified the problem. I washed at 30 degrees and tumble dried on delicate settings. The hoodie now looks old due to the fad in colour, shrunk and the shedding has not abated.

3.0 out of 5 stars 40% plastic
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 March 2022
Size Name: XXLColour Name: Charcoal (0819)Verified Purchase
I'm using this hoodie as a work cloth.
Got one 3 years ago, 90% cotton, 10% synthetic. The fit was comfortable with 2XL, even on my big belly, washed and tumble dried every single week.
It worn out, so did ordered a new one.
60% cotton, 40% synthetic, it feels softer and fluffy, etc..... But.... The 2XL it not so comfortable, can't be tumble dried, way too much synthetic in it.
Not satisfied with my last purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars Does not wash well.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 March 2022
Size Name: LColour Name: Dark Green (0819)Verified Purchase
Material is thick and hoody is warm and cosy, however after 1 wash (30 degree, not tumble dried) the material bobbled. It’s really frustrating because it has bobbled everywhere and even my garment shaver can’t handle the amount that needs removing! Would not recommend for price of item. Would rather spend slightly more on a better quality product that will survive more than one wash!
