| My absolute favorite fleece... EVER!!! The first time I ordered 2 of these fleeces. One in black (to be used for an every day fleece) and one in the blue color to wear on special days. I ordered both in a Small. When they arrived, I tried the blue one on first. (I just want to add that this color is GORGEOUS!). It fit very well, however, if I had something heavier on such as a big sweat shirt, it would not fit properly. While I was agonizing in my head over what to do, I had a perfect idea! My blue hoodie I would keep because of the flattering fit, this would be my fleece for special days like going out for dinner, etc. I decided for my every day fleece (in black), I would like just a little more room. I exchanged it for a medium. I have worn this fleece probably 26 out of the 30 days since it arrived. Don't let the softness of the material fool you into thinking that this fleece isn't warm... Quite the opposite - this is the warmest fleece I've ever owned and - let me tell you something, that hood has been a life saver! I have 2 dogs which I walk 4 times a day. When I'm out with them and I need a little extra warmth, I just put the hood on and I'm all toasty warm! It was a bit pricey for a fleece - BUT WORTH EVERY DOLLAR. No joke, I love my fleece. It's also great to wear under your winter coat. This is a versatile, stylish, and warm fleece. If you're going to be making this your every day fleece, I do suggest a medium. I am 5'3.5, 125 lbs - pretty average. As I said, the small fit perfectly, but didn't allow for too much movement or layering options - but perfect for going out. The medium allows you to do just about anything. To any moms debating about buying this for a daughter or other female - DO IT! This is the most perfect feminine, yet amazingly warm fleece... EVER! | |

Excellent everyday jacket | |
| Rating: |  |
| This is a very good everyday jacket. I wear it to class at the UW almost every day, and I've had it for almost two years now. It's excellent for most Seattle weather. The hood and the water-resistant panels on the shoulder make it fine for light drizzle, but I wouldn't wear it in a downpour or a snowstorm. My favorite feature is how roomy the hood is because it still covers my forehead if I have my hair in a ponytail or bun. The only downside is that the hi-loft fleece gets matted down pretty easily, especially from the seatbelt in the car (I don't even ride in a car very often). Once it gets a little matted, it doesn't really come back up, even if you wash it. It also tends to shed on the seatbelt, so you get little fuzzies on you the next time you ride in the car. However, I consider this a minor downside since the jacket overall is extremely versatile, and extremely comfortable, and surprisingly warm. | |

I LOVE my North Face Oso Hoodie!!! | |
| Rating: | |
| I cannot tell you how much I love this jacket. It is the softest non-fur jacket you will ever own. People often want to pet me it is so soft. I own 2 and both are in white (one from '07 and one from '08 season)! One got dyed gray in the wash and I had to replace it because I could not bear to live without my favorite jacket. The 2007 version was an antique white color while the 2008 version is a bright white color. It’s meant to be fashionable, not rugged for outdoor activities. It’s very light, thin and surprisingly very warm. I wore it in Holland during the wintertime and was fine. It’s cropped short and is fitted in the torso. I like the hood and zipping pockets. It does shed a little, but nothing a lint brush can’t pick up. | |

Very cozy | |
| Rating: | |
| This fleece is very soft and cozy, much more so than the North Face Denali version. The hood is a nice bonus; I can put it up on blustery days and still be warm. I usually wear it when taking the dog for a walk, or going to the grocery store and running errands. I throw on a scarf and some mittens and I am fine in the Michigan winter. It is also lightweight enough that I can keep it on in the stores and not be overly hot. It was a great purchase, and I will get a lot of use out of this fleece. | |

| The North Face Women's Oso Hoodie - After unsuccessfully locating this jacket in any stores near me, I searched the internet. I decided to go with Zappos because they offered free overnight shipping at the time. I am sooo glad that I went with Zappos! Their customer support is second to none, and the jacket arrived as fast as promised! I love this jacket! It is sooo comfortable and soft (everyone comments on how soft it looks). It runs true to size, so think about if you are going to layer with it or not. I definitely recommend this jacket and Zappos!! | |

Comfy but doesn't last | |
| Rating: | |
| This jacket is so soft outside AND inside that I bought my daughter one too. However, having bought the white, it required washing. After about 3-4 washes, it became matted and no longer had the same rabbit fur feel. Still keeps me warm when necessary and have bought other styles of same material since, but try not to wash it if you don't have to. Don't expect it to last more than two years, depending on how much you wash it. Regular fleece jackets begin to ball anyway. This "fur" jacket is fantastic while it lasts. | |

Oso is my favorite jacket! | |
| Rating: | |
| I absolutely love this jacket! I get so many compliments on how soft it is. My marine biology friends jokingly call it my baby fur seal jacket. The hood is great and it has zipping pockets. I have the Oso jacket in white. My fiance threw it in the wash with a black coat and my lovely jacket turned gray. I search everywhere on the internet (and even contacted North Face) for weeks and only Altrec.com had the same exact item. I am so happy I found a replacement!!! | |

| Excellent - This was the first time I ordered from Zappos and I loved the company. I ordered the Oso hoodie and the following day I received it!!! Because it is warm I have not worn the hoodie, but I did try it on and it is beautiful. I did notice it shed a lot, but I knew that already because I had read other reviews. I have to say that my first experience was great and I hope to use Zappos in the future again. | |

Jacket for city, not backpacking | |
| Rating: | |
| I just bought this jacket and I was amazed by how warm it is relative to its weight. The jacket has a very nice hood, big pockets, and it's made out of very soft material. I would recommend this jacket for casual and city use, but not for backpacking, because I'm afraid the material might wear out quickly from the backpack. This jacket is also way "too nice" for backpacking. Overall, I really like this multipurpose hoodie for its looks and warmth. | |

i feel like a teddy bear in this hoody | |
| Rating: | |
| this hoody is, as everyone has already said, so amazingly soft. I get pet all the time by friends. I got it to have a warm, stylish zip up hoody for general use and it definitely fits the bill perfectly. haven't had any rain yet in the two days since i bought it, but the shoulders have the typical north face water proof patches, but i worry it may get a bit matted. other than that though, its pretty much amazing. | |

soft but messy | |
| Rating: |  |
| I washed this and not only does the fabric pill the material sheds. When I wear it under a coat the inside of the coat ends up green - it also comes off on my seat belt. I wish I had known it was going to come off all over everything- I would not have spent all that money! | |

Poor fabric desing.... it sheds heavily!! | |
| Rating: |  |
| Loved the softness of this jacket. Returned the first because the zipper kept splitting on me, then returned yet another because it kept shedding and leaving black balls all over my shirts, even after I washed the jacket twice. I definately do not recommend this jacket. | |

Fuzzy but sheds | |
| Rating: | |
| I wore this once, it shed over the seatbelt, my purse, my North face parka which I bought it for. It was a surprise for an expensive jacket. I felt like a very fuzzy dog that was leaving fuzzies everywhere. | |

| Terrible Shedding! I have washed this hoodie five times now and the shedding is still a terrible problem. I would never have purchased this item had I known the extent of the problem. | |

Warm, but messy | |
| Rating: |  |
| This jacket is good for just around town. Its really nice and warm but I think I got a size too big so the arms are too long and it creates big ripples that do not look good. This jacket also gets little fuzzies everywhere, especially on seatbelts and other clothes you wear with it. I dont like it as much as I did before. At first you will be amazed at how soft it is but that doesnt really matter to me anymore. I picked it out for Christmas last year | |

Like it, but... | |
| Rating: | |
| I really like this jacket, but the sleeves are just too short. I probably should have bought a size larger, but didn't notice when I was trying on. And then the body would have been too big. It is so very cuddly,soft and warm. It does leave lint on your undershirt so you can't really take it off when you are out and about. I got last year's and its a green, so shows up on everything. I just wear it like a sweatshirt. | |
