This fleece is extremely soft, it's comfortable, and it's a nice mid-layer for medium warmth. Not quite as warm as a Melanzana, but for a fraction of the cost, this layer is a steal and nicer to wear during activities without overheating. I took this for a light jog in about 40F and kept it on very comfortably. Standing still, it's not as performant in retaining warmth, especially when there is any wind chill.
I love the variety of colors that are offered. My only critique is that anything heavier in the front pocket (like a phone) makes the garment sag from the weight; it could use reinforcement and structure there to make the pocket more useful for carrying things.
I'm 5'3", 120-125lb, tend to have broader shoulders (17") for my size, and also debated heavily between a small and medium. I wear a size small in the Woolie and decided to go with the medium Grid Fleece, and I'm glad I did. It's slightly looser and I can comfortably wear a layer underneath. The extra room also adds to the comfort; it feels like a soft blanket and I literally want to live in this layer all the time!
It's been my favorite hoodie since I bought it during the Black Friday sale. It's just so comfortable! I was torn between ordering S and M since I read the comments about sizing up, but the S fits me perfectly (5'6, 118 lbs). (Granted, in SoCal, I'm not layering over any bulky extra layers. I'd probably order up for more room in the arms if I were.) My workout buddies all want them too now! I'm hoping you add more colors in 2026. I'd love a brighter teal and a more raspberry purple.
I’ve been searching for the perfect fleece midlayer for years, and finally found it with Squak!! Amazing quality, so soft and flattering, seriously the best midlayer out there. Thank you Squak!!
I’m 5’10, 145lb, athletic build with long arms and short torso. I was torn between a women’s S and M, and ultimately went with the M. So glad I did, it’s got the perfect amount of room without being baggy, and long sleeves for the long armed girlies!! 🙏
It’s always a win when the sleeve length finally matches the reach! Thanks for sharing the sizing tip with the rest of the community—see you out there!

Let us know how it performs once you get it out into the wild!
I bought this microgrid hoodie a couple weeks ago, and have genuinely worn it almost every day since. I have worn it as a base layer for skiing, and just out and about. It’s so comfy, I love the fit, and have gotten so many compliments. Overall, I’m obsessed.
Thanks for the kind words and for sharing the Squak love—it sounds like it’s found a great home with you!
