I really fell in love with this at another retailer and ordered it online from MHW (color was unavailable at the store at the time). When it showed up it was a tad larger than the ones I had tried on but that was fine. It's very comfortable and very warm. However, it pills up something fierce. I have to go over it about once a week now and I have had it since December. Since it's weave is what originally drew me to it, this is a big drawback for me.
I do not recommend this product.

I'm liking this new fleece! It's warm for its weight and is very well made. Nothing feels cheap, no corners were cut.
It fits bigger than I expected, that was my big surprise. I normally opt for XL for fleece, as they almost universally shrink a bit after the first wash. This one didn't shrink, and fits slightly larger than I'd have expected. It drapes a bit, in retrospect a L would have probably been more conformed to my shape (5'9, 200lbs, 45/46" chest).
The only other thing of note is the zippers are fairly stiff. They don't zip fluidly, occasionally requiring me to hold down the fleece with one hand while zipping/unzipping with the other. This isn't necessarily a negative, per se, just something I noticed.
But it's warm and soft. I think the next one I get will be the Large, since I like the fleeces to fit a bit more conformed to my body for insulating ability. It doesn't have quite the snazzy business casual look I was hoping for because of the extra material.
One last comment... I ordered black. In all sorts of light, it seems more of a dark brown than a black. Not sure if this is mine only or common to the style, but its noticeably not "black" as one normally would define it.
I still recommend it! Had the size fit like I thought it would (based on other MHW stuff), it'd have been perfect. Warm, soft, but classier than your run-of-the-mill fleece jackets. It's worth the money.
I would recommend this product.

Great, uptown medium weight jacket. Great for casual dress/ non-technical warmth down to freezing for me. Does run large though as previously mentioned. Normally, I wear XL T-shirts etc but the XL was like a big cozy sweatshirt. Still wearable but I ordered a large that is better IMO for a neater, date nite look.
I would recommend this product.

Very comfortable and surprisingly warm. And the tweed cooler can be worn for almost any occasion. Only drawback I have is not a lot of wind stoppage and is a little long in my opinion. I am 5' 9" and feel a little funny with the extra material at the bottom when zipped up. On a positive note the excess keeps you covered when doing activities (loading building supplies and reaching over head) All in all still very happy with my purchase.
I would recommend this product.

This is a great jacket. I was very pleased when I purchased it, as it seemed like a great fleece. It fits perfectly and I love the design. However, my main problem with this jacket are the hand warmer pockets. There are made of mesh, which doesn't keep my hands warm at all. In fact, my hands feel cold when I put them in the pockets. Since the material is mesh, cold air can easily get into the jacket, so in order to trap out all cold air, you really can't use the hand warmer pockets. This is my only problem with the jacket. Other than this I love it. But why mesh??
I would recommend this product.

I bought this for my husband a couple of weeks ago and since it arrived, I don't think he has taken it off! (That says a lot as we were replacing a fleece he bought on our honeymoon that he was very hesitant to part with).
I would recommend this product.
