The jacket is made of high-quality materials. It is warm, lightweight and provides good protection against wind. The hood proves to be very functional, and the collar is high and protects the neck well. The product fulfills its purpose perfectly. I am 185 cm tall, weigh 90 kg, and have an athletic build. Size L fits me perfectly – it is neither too loose nor too tight. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

The fleece is very comfortable, warm, and pleasant to use. It is suitable for both everyday use and for trips. The color in the photo matches the real one. I highly recommend it.

The Polar is excellently made and very comfortable, and the hood with a visor fits perfectly—almost like a cap. It's incredibly warm, but that comes at a price: during any exertion, you sweat quite a bit in it. I feel like the breathability is limited given the thickness of the material. I have a size L and it's fitted, which is comfortable but may also reduce the airflow inside. Great for static activities or very cold days, but too hot for intense hiking.

I decided to return the fleece. Everything is fine, but the manufacturer skimped on the zippers—they work very badly, they are difficult to zip and unzip, and they function unevenly. The Velcro on the shoulders is also a bit much. Soon they’ll start sewing Velcro onto boxers and socks too.
-
I usually wear size L, but the M size sweatshirt is even a bit too big. Overall, I rate it very well. You feel warmth as soon as you put it on. Truly a revolutionary fleece, light and very warm. It has one flaw: the fastening at the neck is terribly irritating... maybe I'll get used to it...
