This is either a nice looking fitted top, or a mess of device lines deforming your figure.
Product is oddly proportioned. I wanted to get a garment to help my girlfriend with a long flight she's about to take. I own a male scottevest item and I enjoy it (though it has quirks). I was eager to get her something similar. I'm very disappointed in what arrived. It looks nice when it's empty. It looks terrible because it's designed to look fitted when empty which translates poorly when the pockets are in use, and it is uncomfortable because the heavy items (tablet and phone) are on the same side.* All of the heavy items are set on the same side. Phone, tablet, book ... all on the same side. This makes it uncomfortable to wear. No, sunglasses and keys don't even out that weight.* Torso is fairly fitted, which leaves no room for carrying items without horrendous lines from your devices. Want a square looking left boob? This will totally hook you up when you put a phone in the phone pocket! This leaves the garmet looking like crap. Really, look for videos from the company where they show the item being worn with things in the pockets, there aren't any. You can either have a fitting looking semi-athletic top, or you can actually use the pockets and screw up all of the garment lines.* The sleeves are super long. I recognize that the sleeves are supposed to have long cuffs to allow them to be worn one of two ways. However, with the thumbs in the thumb holes there are still a couple inches of fabric between the shoulder and the thumb hole, and cuffing the end doesn't really help with that.* I don't really care for the plastic zipper teeth. Not the end of the world.* Most of the product is made from a nice stretchy material, but the pockets have no real stretch and breath much less leaving hot spots when worn (with pockets empty). I can't imagine specifically trying to wear something like this with pockets full while exercising.* The headphone cord management system that they're so proud of (and 10 years ago it was amazing!) is becoming obsolete with bluetooth headphones.* Phone pocket has elastic mesh, and a velcro closure, and also a zipper that runs about an inch and a half down the length of the pocket (fits an iPhone 6 with a case just fine). The zipper will unzip with use. Phone doesn't readily fall out, but it seems less secure because of the zipper. There are zippers made that "lock" in place when the zipper tab is down.* The hood has a giant zipper that goes all the way up to the top. But, the hood is fairly shallow. Obviously the extended zipper is just aesthetic. Allowing it to zip shut and be comfortably worn may help with isolation on long travel flights. Many other travel-centric garments do something similar to this.* The ID pocket is silly because of the velcro closure. I imagine it will hold a driver's license and a credit card just fine. I wouldn't trust anything that important to a pocket without a zipper though.* Who uses a compact digital camera anymore? I'm sure there are some people who do, but is it common enough to require a separate pocket? I'm sure there are women somewhere who like chewing tobacco (*vomit*) you could include a pocket for that, too.* The price of this seems awkward when I consider all of the problems. It looks nice empty, but then why am I paying for the pockets? It looks terrible when the pockets are in use and I wonder why I'm paying extra for wicking highly breathable materials, and why multiple layers of pockets aren't made of similarly effective wicking materials.Things I liked:* Concept* Fabric is nice.* Sunglass compartment has a separate smaller compartment which can either be used to store the chamois, or relatively secure another smallish item.* We have two tablets, and either will fit in either of the larger pockets on the left side of the garment. No, we wouldn't consider wearing this with two tablets in it at the same time.* Sunglass compartment has a nice chamois on an elastic cord.I think this garment needs:* To decide on exactly what it wants to be. Is it an athletic garment? And, if so who the hell runs with a tablet and a book and a smartphone and a separate camera? Is it designed to hold a bunch of things? Then, why pretend it's athletic wear and ruin the look of it when it's being utilized?* To get rid of the phone pocket zipper, or use a better zipper.* An external battery compartment. We likely would have used the camera pocket. It may help if this pocket also has an area for a charging cable or two.* To more evenly distribute the weight of the garment specifically paying attention to which pockets will be in use the majority of the time.* To have shorter sleeves or have a version designed for the average female height of 5'4".

Well made with loads of pockets.
This hoodie delivers what it promises. It has loads of pockets. There's probably a pocket that will fit your every need, and also a bunch of extras you don't. The hoodie has loops for threading earphones down to a device in your pocket. This feels a bit out date to me, since like many people, I know favor wireless headphones. Likewise there is a pocket for a camera and extra space for memory cards, something I haven't used in 10 years. That said, any highly specialized organizing system can't be perfect for everyone and too many options is probably better than too few.The quality of the hoodie is high. The weight is pretty heavy and I wouldn't be inclined to wear it on any day over 75 degrees, even above 70 would be a bit too toasty.It has some odd features which I assume are meant to be fashionable. The "infinity zipper" is the most puzzling -- the zipper runs all the way up the hood, so that you can zip it shut. I dislike this as too strange and useless a feature. I'm also not fond of the sleeves which are meant to be cuffed. The problem is that the material is already quite thick making the cuffs cumbersome. As a 5 foot 3 person, I often find sleeves too long, which is the case for this hoodie (I purchased a medium). I usually roll sleeves up to deal with this, but since this piece already has quite thick sleeves rolled at the cuff, double rolling them is awkward and uncomfortable. Leaving them unrolled leaves me with sleeves that are far too long.

Great hoodie - watch out for the zipper!
I purchased this travel hoodie for two international business trips. It was comfortable to wear on the long plane rides and I felt secure having my passport, money, phone, etc. zipped up inside the hoodie. The pockets are great and I liked the additional details like including a tethered glasses/screen cleaning cloth. The material of the hoodie feels nice and good quality and it was heavier than I expected. It worked well for keeping me warm on the plane, but it's light enough to push up the sleeves when traveling between the air port and hotel in hotter climates.I recommend considering a larger size if you plan on carrying bulky items or a lot of stuff. The hoodie fits nicely, but items like wallets and cell phones are a bit lumpy underneath the hoodie. And since I have a fuller chest, I couldn't put much in the upper pockets.My only complaint the zipper continuing around the hood, as my hair got snagged in it a couple of times. I like the idea of being able to zip up the hood for sleeping, but it would be nice to have like a little flap of fabric over the zipper around the hood so that it won't pull your hair, but you could fold back the fabric to zip it all the way up.

Not covered by SCOTTeVEST 2 year warranty
I bought this hoodie about a year ago and the seams are already starting to fall apart. This would be okay if it was a cheap $20 hoodie but this one costs nearly $100! It seemed to be made well but little bits and pieces are starting to fall apart after only a year. I emailed SCOTTeVEST and they told me you only get a 2 year warranty if you buy it from their website but not if you buy from Amazon. Usually the warranty period is the minimum of how long the product should last but in this case the product lasted way less. I will say I liked this hoodie for the pockets but not much else and with the lack of warranty and high price tag, I can't recommend this product.
