The verdict
Fit
Expect a deliberately loose, oversized fit per the boxy-fix styling, with sizing likely running generous.
Quality
The heavy naming suggests a thicker fleece than the brand's lighter pullovers, consistent with typical mid-weight hoodie construction for the line.
Is the price fair?
At $54, this is mid-range for the category, a fair price for a heavier casual graphic hoodie.
Best for
Someone wanting a warmer, boxy graphic hoodie for cooler-weather casual wear.
Care
Turn inside out before washing to protect the graphic print and help the heavier fleece keep its texture.
What owners report about Gymshark hoodies
Reviewers who test the range rate the hoodies as its strongest pieces: one hands-on tester called the Crest hoodie his preferred gym hoodie after trying more expensive options, describing a slim fit that is not tight, raglan sleeves, and a kangaroo pocket. The heavyweight rest-day line is reviewed as genuinely heavy — 400 gsm loopback fabric with a roomy oversized fit reviewers find warm and soft. A buyer guide reports tops and hoodies tend to outlast the brand's leggings, though detailed long-term wash-and-wear reporting on hoodies specifically is thin. Aggregated buyer feedback rates the standard Crest fit true to size, while oversized versions run very large.
