Women’s Nike Hoodies

Nike Hoodies	Style	How Do They Fit?
Funnel Neck Hoodie	BV4526-695	True to size but slight boxy in look, waist is somewhat big and also it runs a little short if you have a long torso. That’s why get a size up or down depending on your body type.
Sportswear Gym Vintage Women’s Full-Zip Hoodie	CJ1694-814	True to size but a little big in the shoulder area
Women’s Essential Full-Zip Hoodie (Tech Fleece)	DD5624-222	Fits nicely but because of elastic ribs, with the bigger forearms one may feel it a bit tight/snug
Jordan Flight Women’s Fleece Pullover Hoodie	CV7737-010	It’s a loose fit so get a size small if you want a close fit as it runs roomier in sleeves and front body.
Therma Women’s Pullover Training Hoodie	CU5500-073	Fits nicely but the arms are short so be aware of that.
Tech Pack Women’s Hoodie	CZ8930-010	It’s an oversized fit for a baggy and spacious feel so go for a small if you don’t want extra space.

Nike Hoodies Fit Types

There are two types of Nike fit offers in Hoodies:

• The standard fit in hoodies offer a relaxed feeling. Though, you can only wear a thin layer like shirt or t-shirt underneath it comfortably.
• The other fit is loose fit, that offer a roomier and spaccious feeling. This fit can take a thin sweater underneath and still have the space left.

One thing that I saw, is that for only women’s both standard and loose are available.

Yep – I tried hard finding a loose fit in Men’s hoodies but none of them currently have it (or, at least I haven’t come across such hoodies.)

Size Available

After going through several brands on both jackets and hoodies, Nike is one of those brands that has a very wide range of sizes available.

The sizes available are Small to 4XL for average people and all the sizes have the taller version for those who have a long torso.

For example, Nike Dri-FIT & Nike Sportswear Club Fleece Pullover Hoodie offers Small & Small Tall to 4XL & 4XL Tall.

Though on some hoodies like Nike Sportswear Club Fleece you also get a custom sizing option.

Can I Return Unfit Nike Hoodies?

Yes, Nike has its brand value and to maintain Nike offers a 60-day return policy to return unfit hoodies or any other gear that doesn’t perform as intended.

It doesn’t whether you shop a hoodie from Nike.com, Nike App, or at the Nike store you still get a 60-day return policy.

Where for Nike members the return process is free.

Though, payment made by Klarna or Paypal will be refunded in the form of a Nike gift card when return to a store.

Conclusion – A Pro Sizing Tip

Do Nike Hoodies Run Small Or Big? Yes, a few Nike hoodies got the complaint of running small while the majority runs either true to size or intentionally made to run bigger or oversized for a more relaxed and spacious feel.

And, excluding a very few, some hoodies do run small that is too minute to get a size up.

And:

• Women should order the size came after the bust measurment if your measurments for bust and waist corresponds to different sizes suggested in sizing chart.
• The same goes for men – just replace the word ‘bust’ with ‘chest’.
