The AA is slim, but seems way lower quality than that Club Monaco hoody, just so you know. The CM hoodie is nice and in some stores is discounted to $39. I'm waiting till they knock it down to $19 and am going to snap up a bunch.

i have a blue club monaco hoody but its too small now, the quality is good but i just used it for rough work anyway. Im looking for a nice all black hoody with a loose but not baggy fit.

well AA is not what you're looking for then. It's hardly going to be either loose or baggy. I'd just go to Target and get a champion hoody for $10. It seems like it's just about as good as the AA in my experience in quality, it's just that the AA is really slim fit.

yeah, AA hoodies don't fit me at all. the mediums are too tight for my liking across my shoulders and chest. the larges are better but they are ridiculously long.

i would go with CM stuff. i have a few basics from there that have held up very well.

I bought two AA hoodies at wholesale, and don't really think they were a great deal at $22 for what I got. Take it as you will.

You wear a Club Monaco in XL and you think it's too small when you're 6' and 140?

I'm not entirely sure what you consider a tight fit then, because I wear L in club monaco and I'm 6'2 and 220. It fits me just fine, not overly tight. I also wear L in AA and that is MUCH more slim. You'd probably have to get at least a XXL to get the fit you want.

Yeah, dunno what to tell you. I'd just go try some hoodies on at Target. The target brand hoodies seem to be the same quality as AA IMO. Quality is seriously really sketchy. The only reason ppl buy them is because they're really slim fit and you don't seem to want that anyways.

I think it would be a lot easier for you to drive to LA or OC.
