One of the heaviest loopwheel hoodies out there, the Iron Heart Ultra Heavyweight Loopwheel Hoodie in a solid black clocks in at a hefty 14oz weight, featuring a brushed interior fleece, a large front kangaroo pocket, and heavy duty four-needle flat-stitched seams. These were built to last and withstand some adverse weather.
Note: Runs TTS for a slim/snug fit. If you like your sweatshirts/hoodies to fit more relaxed and not feel as constricted, size up one from your typical American tops brand size. For another reference, you can size down from your typical Iron Heart UHF size for a slim fit, or take the same size as your flannel for a relaxing fit. Keep an eye on length if you are taking the lower size. These are one-washed so they should not shrink that much further, but if you use machine dry on high heat, or for prolonged periods you may experience additional shrinkage. Note that over time with wear and washes, these will generally loosen up and stretch a little.
Model: 6'0" and 175 lbs (currently closer to 170 lbs) wearing size Medium (his TTS, and one down from his Iron Heart UHF size) for a slim/snug fit; model can also size up to Large for a more relaxed fit, but model prefers the M for a slim fit (also because the fleece will loosen and stretch a little over time for a more comfortable fit).
