The new Fanatic Hoody has the roots of a traditional hoody transformed into a stealthy hunting top. This heavyweight fleece-insulated hoody includes comfort stretch for mobility and channeled construction for added breathability and moisture management. Pull up the hood and a built-in, highly air-permeable mesh facemask adds total concealment without overheating you as you breathe. Flip-over hand mitts with an integrated thumb-hole offer easy layering and warmth to complete an endlessly versatile hunting tool that can be worn throughout the entire season.

Bend your elbow and put your hand on your hip. Measure from the center of the back of your neck, along the shoulder and down the elbow to the wrist bone.
Wrap the tape measure under armpits, around the fullest part of your chest. The tape measure should be snug, not so tight that it constricts breathing, yet not so loose that the tape measure slides down. Don’t puff out your chest. Stand relaxed while measuring.
Measure your natural waist, which is the narrowest part of your abdomen, between your ribcage and hips. Stand relaxed while measuring.
For hip circumference, measure around your fullest point, approximately 8” below your natural waist.
In a standing position, measure from your crotch to where you want your pants to end, breaking at the top of the shoe in the front and just above the heel in the back.
With hand partially closed, measure over the knuckles and around the hand, excluding the thumb.
If Waist and Hip measurements do not match up on the chart, choose a size that is between the two to find the best fit.
Ex 1: If your waist measures 28” and your hip measures 40”, typically the best fit would be a size 29.
Ex 2: If your waist measures 27.5”, and your hips measure 38”, typically the best fit would be a size 28.

I was so excited for this hoody and really wanted to love it! The Bison color is to die for. For sizing I was right on the borderline of the small and medium waist measurements, so I opted for the medium and was glad I did. I don't like my clothing super compressive. There were a few things that just didn't hit the mark for me though, so I ended up returning. The built in mittens- at first I thought they were going to be awesome, but when not in use, you are left with sleeves that are waaay too long and have to be folded up. I felt like a kid wearing a hand-me-down that was too big because of the sleeves (but overall the rest of the size was good). The sewing of the material also felt itchy around my wrists where the sleeves had to be rolled back. As far as bow shootability, I did not feel like I had a great range of motion in the shoulder. I never shot my bow in it because I knew I'd be returning it, but I don't think it would've been great for that. If the hoody didn't have the built in mittens, and thus the insanely long sleeves, I probably would've kept it for casual everyday wear. Now that I think about it, I almost wish I'd just taken it to a tailor to have the sleeves hemmed up, but that would've cost extra. This was my first piece of Sitka, and I'm still not a convert, but I might try it again in the future.
SUPER IMPRESSED with this product. Incredibly functional and well constructed— This is my new favorite layer!
Really like this hoodie, it’s very quiet and the inner face mask is awesome when it’s a tad chilly or you’re running around in a side by side. Definitely good for archery with a base layer or two when you go from 40-80 in the span of 5 hours!
This hoodie is my favorite to wear for just about everything! I received it as a gift and highly recommend it to all my family members. The fit for a woman is amazing. It’s my go to for hiking biking boating/ fishing camping or just lounging around the house. I am impressed at the comfort in varying outdoor temps and windy conditions.
I love this hoodie not only for walking around but for mid season white tail hunting. It’s perfect paired with my early season gear on hunts that get in the high 40- low 50’s. I would give it five stars if it had the safety harness port like the jackets.
I bought the Fanatic Hoody as my first Sitka product, and it’s perfect! I live in Iowa, so I primarily hunt whitetails, which is why I chose this product. It’s truly made to fit a woman’s body. The face mask in the hood is super convenient for a hunter, no more forgetting your face mask! The hoody is very warm in itself, perfect for 30-50 degree weather. I don’t over-heat or get cold in it, so it’s good at regulating body temperature! The fabric of the hoody is also very nice quality, it’s thicker, and the waffle-knit inside fabric is very soft and cozy. I wish I could wear it every day! Sitka’s products are made as an athletic fit, so if you like your hunting clothes a little looser like I do, I would order a size bigger. I would recommend this as a first product for the whitetail hunter to try out the brand, they really live up to their name! Great job, Sitka!
Bought this last year for myself and my best girlfriend as we are both upland hunters in the north. We LOVE these Hoodies! I got a large just to have extra room and be comfortable and wow is it warm! The face mask and mittens that the hand holes form if you need them is amazing! Who ever engineered this hoodie did a damn good job! Love it. Great for 30-45 degree weather for me and allows me to have minimal layers on because it’s THAT warm

These are pretty neat, I only wish I had the ones the zipper went all the way down on, but it’s not that big of a deal. These are great for layering and I do size up with all my Sitka women’s line stuff to make sure I can move easily. They have a really clean athletic fit that complements strong shoulders.
I am 5'8'' with 5'10" arm span. I ordered a size large and it is comfortable and fits perfectly. It is fitted without being baggy and FINALLY I have a top that is long enough in the arms! The body length is nice as well and doesn't creep up exposing your lower back. Best points - it blocks the wind, long enough arms, and the hood is well thought out. I live in Iowa and between hunting, sitting at outdoor sporting events, and snowmobiling, this gets a lot of use. I have not worn it by itself for a long length of time, so I can't review it that way. I have worn it as a base layer and it has been fabulous. I know it stops the wind because the jacket and vest I have worn over it were not windproof. The hood fits good with or without a ponytail - I also wear the hood up under my snowmobile helmet. The hood covers well without limiting your sight. It is also quiet for hunting. I would easily wear this daily and the only reason I don't is the price. I am trying to save it for when the conditions warrant it.
I have not found any downsides to this product yet. If I start to get pilling on it like some of the other reviews stated, I will update this post if I can. I know the price is high, but I hate being cold and uncomfortable, so it is worth it for me.
Love the athletic fit, and the warmth it provides while competitively shooting.
Wanted to love this . It is very warm ; but after just one wear the entire thing is pilling so bad . And not just where the binoculars harness was . The sleeves elastics are also showing through . Disappointed because even on sale it was still pricey . My boyfriend has the men’s version and it did not do that .
