The verdict
Fit
Popovers typically have a roomy, relaxed fit through the chest. Expect a comfortable, unstructured silhouette; sizing tends generous.
Quality
Recycled polyester fleece at this price is standard mid-tier performance—soft initially but will pill with repeated washing typical of the category.
Is the price fair?
Fair for the segment. At $179, you're paying for Faherty's brand positioning rather than exceptional durability or insulation.
Best for
Casual active wear and layering on mild days when you want softness without weight.
Care
Machine wash cold and tumble dry low to minimize pilling common to budget fleece.
Fit check: Faherty
True to sizeFaherty fits true to size with a deliberately relaxed cut — take your usual size, and only size down on the roomiest dresses and boxy tees if you're between sizes.
Owners and hands-on reviewers consistently report Faherty running true to size, with the slight ease built into the cut rather than a sign to size down. The relaxed silhouette shows up across lines — tees are described as boxy-but-not-oversized, pants run about a half-inch generous in the waist (not enough to change size), and some dresses and boxier tops read roomy enough that between-sizes buyers go down. A minority of owners find pieces large and boxy at their usual size — one Reddit user had a medium tailored — and a few customer reviews flag garment-to-garment inconsistency, but that's the exception in the feedback, not the pattern.
Sizing advice: Order your usual size across the line; if you're between sizes, size down only on roomy dresses and boxy tees — everywhere else stay true, since the relaxed drape is intentional.

What owners report about Faherty jackets & outerwear
Third-party coverage of Faherty's jackets specifically is thin — most independent reviews center on the brand's shirts and knits, with outerwear mentioned in passing. What exists is positive on materials and comfort: one long-term reviewer expects his Teton Jacket to last generations, and brand-level write-ups say the fabric quality is a real step above typical mall brands. The recurring drawbacks are price — reviewers note outerwear can push past $300 — and relaxed, boxy cuts that at least one owner paid to have tailored.
- Strengths
- Soft, comfortable fabrics and casual designs that long-term owners describe as pieces they expect to keep for years.
- Watch out for
- Price is the most common complaint, and the roomy, boxy fit sends some owners to a tailor.
- Sizing
- Reviewers report true-to-size but relaxed fits; one owner found the fit "a little large and boxy for a normal medium" and had it tailored.
