I LOVE IT!!!
It looks just like the picture. The colors really pop on the black material.
The inside is very soft, and the pocket easily fits my smartphone, keys and small wallet.
I don't think the drawstrings can be removed, or at least not easily. (I tried, not too hard, but they seem to be sewn in.)
I'm 5'7", 140 lbs and I like my clothes on the baggy side. I got a size XL and it fits me just how I like it. It's not super-huge that I'm swimming in it, but I definitely have enough room.
The best part?
IT DIDN'T SHRINK! (Or if it did, it's so little that I didn't notice...and I washed it on normal wash, normal heat dry...I'm too lazy to use special cycles.)
I don't normally spend this kind of money on a sweatshirt, but the comfort and especially the Cobra Kai made me extremely happy I got this!!!
