Help me with Hollister Hoodie

krlyr

Women's hoodies are often more fitted in the body. OH tried to wear one of mine once because he was envious of the colour it came in and could barely squeeze his arm in the sleeves because even they were a much tighter fit

I bought my 14 year old son who is approx 5 foot 7 inches, slight build a mans small and it fits perfectly.

Thanks thats really helpful. My son is about 5ft 5 and average build so the small might be OK. We live out in the sticks so I am going to have to do this online (or make a special 60 mile round trip which I dont really have time for!).

Oh - just browsing as I am posting here and have found that some of the zip up hoodies are in XS so I might order both.

Make sure that you are buying from the official site as there have been a couple of "fake" ones that look remarkably like it.

Based on this a small should be fine. Better too big than too small anyway.

I would compare them side to side in the shop or ask an assistant what the difference is.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I can't even tell what colours the hoodies are in Hollister, let alone compare them, it's so dark, I'm feeling my way around like a mole! I think they should have a member of staff at the door giving out white sticks to assist customers around the store! I remember trying to find a light once to hold a hoodie under to see what colour it was. I'm like a right old fart in there. Why does it have to be so dark?! I'd hate to work there. Not to mention that I'm too old for a Hollister hoodie, I can't possibly where the same clothes as my 11 year old DD!

Rant over :D

OP honesty a small will be fine. You need to bear in mind that hollister sizes are designed for adolescents / teens not really fully grown adults so the sizes run small.

But if you look online surely there will be a sizing chart?

You make me feel really old Janepig
I have loads of Hollister stuff- three Hollister t-shirts, a polo shirt, a pair of joggers, a full Hollister tracksuit and my favourite hoodie is pale grey zip-up with Hollister in sea-blue letters down the arm.
I am 34.
I also possess two Superdry t-shirts and a Jack Wills t-shirt and a pair of joggers (which I'm extremely proud of as the t-shirt is a size 12 )
Should I give them all immediately to my younger nieces and slink back to shopping at Bon Marche and the classic collection at Marks and Spencer which may be more suitable for my advanced age and leave the trendy clothes to the under 18's :eek:
Age is just a number!! everyone has different tastes but I dont think you're too old for it.

Yes, I'd forgotten the darkness, you'd think they'd move that bloomin' chandelier from the doorway further inside the shop

Dont go for zip up hoodies. My nephew is similar wanting a hoodie and he makes it clear xip hoodies are not cool. The brand he wants is zooyork and they are around £40.00. Best place i can think of is amazon for hollister hoodies.
