The verdict
Fit
Raglan sleeves create a more casual, vintage aesthetic; the cut is otherwise standard unisex with a straight body. Expect loose shoulders and a boxy fit below.
Quality
Same blank-grade fleece as the rest of Next Level's budget line. The raglan doesn't improve construction; it's a styling choice only.
Is the price fair?
At $14.62 USD, you're in dead-center blank territory. The raglan adds $1–2 to the asking price without adding durability or quality.
Best for
Someone who specifically wants a vintage raglan aesthetic for DIY customization or casual events.
Care
Wash inside-out in cold water; no special care needed or recommended.
What owners report about Next Level Apparel sweatshirts
Next Level's sweatshirt range (Malibu and Santa Cruz crews, PCH and welt-pocket hoodies) is blank apparel sold mainly through printing wholesalers, and buyer feedback there is largely positive on feel: owners describe the brushed-back cotton/poly fleece as very soft and comfortable, and call the crews great quality. The same wholesaler's rating gauges put softness and quality at the top of the scale but score fit noticeably lower, and owner comments back that up — one reports true to size, another found more room than expected in the unisex cut. The most specific recurring complaint is design rather than durability: on the welt-pocket hoodie the front pocket is actually two separate pockets set at an angle, and one buyer reported contents falling out. The crew fleece is listed at 7.4 oz in a 60/40 cotton/polyester blend.
- Strengths
- Owners consistently praise the soft brushed-back fleece and overall comfort for a low wholesale price.
- Watch out for
- The hoodie's 'welt pocket' is really two angled pockets that can spill contents, and fit ratings lag well behind the softness and quality scores.
- Sizing
- Buyers report the unisex cut fits true to size but roomy — one owner found more room than expected, so size down only if you want a trimmer fit.
