Bear-Ear Zip Hoodie: Pair Shoulder and Sleeve Measurements

M–XXL adds 6 cm at the shoulder but only 3 cm at the sleeve. Compare both with a hoodie you own and ask for hood depth.

The checkered bear-ear zip hoodie gives four measurements for M through XXL. Pair its shoulder and sleeve values before choosing a size, because the shoulder position affects where the sleeve begins. The decorative ears also make hood shape part of the decision, although the listing does not measure the hood.

Compare the whole reach

The chart gives M shoulder 56 cm and sleeve 55 cm; XXL gives shoulder 62 cm and sleeve 58 cm. Across those endpoints, shoulder increases 6 cm while sleeve increases 3 cm. That does not mean the wrist reach grows by a simple 9 cm: shoulder may be measured across both sides, and the sleeve starting point may move. Lay a zip hoodie you own flat and compare its shoulder and sleeve using the same tape endpoints, then ask the seller how these values were taken.

Place the body and hem

Bust entries rise from 124 cm at M to 136 cm at XXL, while length goes from 69 to 74 cm. Check the chosen bust against your reference hoodie over the shirt you intend to wear, and mark the hem against your trousers. The source calls the fit loose and the fabric non-stretch; it does not explain whether the listed bust is a finished circumference or body guidance. Confirm this before treating the 4 cm bust steps as added ease.

Inspect hood and zipper details

The page identifies a hood with bear ears and a zip-up type, but omits hood depth, ear dimensions and a clear zipper close-up. Request a side and back hood photo if the ears’ position matters. Polyester is listed as the material; statements about softness and winter warmth on the page are not quantified by a temperature or insulation test. Check the actual garment label and construction when it arrives.
