Thanks! You’ve convinced me to stay with my outdoor research echo. I like that it’s so lightweight. Also, I’ve never understood the benefit of vertical zippered pockets. Anytime I put something in a pocket like that it tends to fall out.
You’re welcome! I’m with you - love my Echo hoodie! This one is super fun but not as practical as I’d like. I’ve never had a pocket like this before but it confused me a bit haha
Interesting. I was looking at it before you said it was heavy. It kinda looks heavy. I love the colors though. I also have OR hoodie and love it. Happy trails.🤘🏻🥾⛰️
I wore my Jolly Gear hoodie for 3 weeks on the AT last fall, and while I love it (button down + hood!!) I can definitely see it being too heavy and non-breathable for an east coast summer. We'll see how it does in a drier environment on the PCT this year! I'm a skinny 5'9" and the size small is the sweet spot for me. I stashed my gloves in the zipper pockets a few times, and let's just say it looked... interesting 😂
The shirt colors match your personality to the “T”. Looks good 😊 on you. I think I would agree the zip pockets would not serve much function while carrying a backpack with chest straps. I would think that what ever you had in the pockets would make intentions on the chest and front bust area of a woman. Happy trails Audrey!!
I own the classic mint green with orange plants. I agree with your opinions on this shirt. It's a great shirt but I'm always too hot, the gear doesn't dry well, and the thumb holes are set too far apart from the cuff size and feels off.
@AudreyAdventures I carried it about 3 weeks longer than I should have before I sent it back. If it was early or late in the yearbit would be great but of May to August, it seems off.
Thank you for the honest review. YT needs more of this.
You’re welcome!

I love the colors too!! And I think it’s really fun and cute. Just wish the material was better/ lighter.

Please report back and let me know how it works out on the PCT if you remember!

Thank you! ☺️ I love the look of the shirt! Just wish it did better in the rain. Yes I’m not quite sure about the pockets haha. Happy Trails!

Yeah I think it’s really fun but just not that practical.

Did You ever manage to get the stains out of the other hoodie, I think it was the OR echo?
I didn’t but someone just recently recommended a soap that has always worked for her so I need to get some one of these days and try it!
100%, NOT FOR ME!
Great job.
Thanks, James!
