Womens Classic Full Zip Hoodie

Zip-Ups

$160as of Jul 13, 2026 — check current price at ESSENTIALS

The verdict

The brand's core women's zip hoodie, matching its men's Classic pricing and silhouette; a fair pick if you want the house cut.

Fit

Likely follows the same relaxed, oversized house cut as the men's version rather than a fitted women's silhouette, so consider sizing down for a closer fit.

Quality

As part of the core, ongoing collection, expect the same fleece and finishing as the brand's other Classic hoodies rather than anything special.

Is the price fair?

At $160 it's priced in line with the rest of the brand's core hoodies, which is still premium for the category but consistent across the line.

Best for

Someone who wants the brand's relaxed, oversized fit in a women's-labeled cut rather than a fitted hoodie.

Care

Wash cold and hang dry to help the fleece keep its shape.

What owners report about ESSENTIALS zip-ups

Owners describe Essentials' fleece pieces, including the full-zip, as a mid-to-heavyweight cotton-blend fleece with a soft, brushed interior rather than a technical or luxury-grade fabric. One long-term wearer said the brushed lining 'stays soft without pilling' after a winter of regular wear and reported 'no pilling on the interior, no loose threads, drawstrings still intact' after 40-plus wears and 20-plus washes, with stitching holding 'no loose threads or skipped stitches.' A separate buying guide is blunt that shoppers are 'not paying for complex construction or rare materials' — the draw is the oversized, boxy silhouette. Shrinkage is reported as minimal if washed cold and air-dried.

Strengths: Long-term wearers report the brushed-fleece interior resists pilling and printed logos hold up without cracking or peeling after months of regular wear and washing.
Watch out for: The fabric itself is described as ordinary mid-weight cotton-blend fleece rather than a premium or technical material, so reviewers frame the price as buying the fit and branding more than standout construction.
Sizing: The cut runs oversized and boxy with a shorter body, dropped shoulders, and wide sleeves, so expect a relaxed, roomy fit rather than a true-to-size one.
