However, while the athleisure staple has racked up hundreds of positive reviews, several users note the sweatshirt runs large, so size down if you want a more fitted look.

"Love the longer length for over leggings [but] it does run very large." writes one shopper. "I wear a small and the extra-small is still quite big on me."

"I wanted to love this sweatshirt, but it runs so large and the sleeves are so long," echos another reviewer. "I tried both a small and medium and found this sweatshirt, no matter how you slice it, runs too big!"
