Does this hoodie run true to size?

It is cut relaxed, and owners often say it runs large. If you want a closer fit, consider sizing down; if you like an oversized look, take your usual size.

Is it warm enough on its own?

It is a standard midweight pullover hoodie, suited to mild weather or indoor wear. In cold conditions you will want a jacket or a base layer underneath.

How should I wash it to keep the stripes looking sharp?

Wash cold and inside out, and skip the dryer or use low heat. That helps limit fading, pilling and shrinkage that can distort the stripe pattern.

Can I wear it under a jacket?

Yes, but the hood and kangaroo pocket add bulk. It layers most cleanly under roomy jackets rather than slim-fitting coats.

What makes it different from a plain hoodie?

The striped pattern is the main difference. It adds visual interest but pairs with fewer outfits than a solid color, so it is less of an all-purpose layer.
