Black ovis Merino hoody

[Shallow Thoughts]

Anyone have a hands on Opinion of the Black ovis Merino hoody? How does it compare vs Kuiu, sitka, firstlite hoodies?

I hear it is comparible to the first lite chama hoodie. I am also interested. Especially for the price

I have the BO briefs in merino. Very nice fabric. I am sure the hoody would be great.

I have several Blackovis merino and they are all great. It is equal to my sitka merino but much less expensive. I would defanitly recommend them.

I think the softness of the BO Hoody is comparable to the First Lite, but stretchier. They also have a totally different fit/cut, much more athletic, not nearly as baggy as the chama. I ordered a large in both, and I would have to go to an xl in the BO to have it fit like the chama does. The BO hoody also lacks thumbholes and has knit wrists (I think that's the term - they're like a sweatshirt). Not a deal-breaker for me, but I've come to appreciate thumbholes when putting another layer on to keep the sleeves in place.

Overall, I would recommend it as a really good value compared to the other stuff that's out there.

Really like mine. I don’t think it’s a soft as the first light merino but it has lasted a lot longer. Only negative is I think they do run a bit small.

Mine is my favorite piece of clothing. It is amazing what flipping that thin hood up does for your warmth.

Hopefully by the time I need a new light hoody it will have thumb holes

I hear it runs small, do you size up from what you would wear in FL?

I wore mine for 7 days straight last season. Even slept in it. Very comfy.

I heard that FL runs large. Normally I wear a large in items and at FL according to their size chart I am a medium. I am 5'10" and 190lbs. Black ovis told me to order Large in base layer tops and bottoms. I want to wear the hoodie over my base layers so they said to get an XL.

I feel like FL does run big, I wear a L in most everything but a Medium in FL. I went with a Large in the BlackOvis so hopefully it fits.

My Camofire order came today! I must say, I am really impressed with the packaging and the merino! Sizes fit just like their customer service said it would. I am definitely a fan so far!
