I am 5'4" and 130 lbs. I got the small. When it arrived, it looked HUMONGOUS. I washed it and tossed it in the dryer and it shrank like 2 sizes. Now it's perfect.Super soft and cozy, colors are pretty, but not quite as bright as I had hoped.I will be purchasing another, but I think I'll grab the next size up, as the way it shrunk makes it so I can't put the hood up, as it looks weird.My son wanted this for Christmas. We ordered a size L (he is 175lbs, 6'2". When it arrived and he tried it on, it fit perfect. I knew one time through the dryer would be it for this thing.....so we ended up hang drying it every time...which does get old. Somehow it went through the dryer and shrunk ALOT!! My son was still able to wear it because he's a bean pole but it definitely looked short on him. Eventually he cut off the arms so now it looks sort of like a semi-crop top which was waaay better. I have to give him props for upcycling it and getting more use out of it! These types of tops are meant to be roomy so I'd order two sizes up next time. He does love it though--crop top and all!Bought for a Christmas gift for my son. He lives it. Only downfall is it has a smell to it. Can only be dry cleaned.I ordered the “Fire Dancer” color in XXL. I wear a 2X but this fits me like a 3X. It is fairly roomy. The extra space makes it more cozy but the sleeves are pretty long too. I find that sleeves usually fit me just right or they are too short. I’d rather my clothes be too big rather than too small, so it’s all good. Sleeves can always be hemmed. The colors are a bit different than pictured but in a good way as there is more variation up close in person and as you’ll see in my photo. The stripes in the picture that appear to be a deep orange-red are actually just bright red in person. They are the widest stripes, then there are some narrower stripes that are white, orange, primary yellow, royal blue, dark gray and black. Very vibrant colors. From far away the hoodie looks mostly red/orange. I have only had one other Baja hoodie and that was over 20 years ago when I was 12-15ish so I don’t remember it too well and I don’t have much to compare it to but the quality is as one would expect- these things have character. The inside is almost soft as fleece which was a nice surprise.Got this Baja for a steal! I ordered an XL (5’8 235lb guy) based off of other reviews regarding fit - I found that it was almost too baggy and long in arms prior to washing it; after washing it it shrank almost a size and a half becoming more of a slightly loose but almost snug fit. I actually like the fit it shrank to. Colors are as expected from pics and did not see much of any fadeOverall love the product. I originally ordered the XXLarge because I like a lot of room but it was massive - XL is perfect. The material is soft and comfortable on the inside. Here is what was disappointing - I ordered it the first time and it arrived in Brown/Blue rather than the Yellow/Blue which I really wanted. I thought maybe it was just a mistake so when I re-ordered the smaller size I thought i thought I would get the right color. No. The site shows El Paso in the Yellow/Blue but it’s not accurate. I still received the Brown/Blue the second time around. I will keep it be because I love it anyhow. Just would have preferred the correct color.Don't Wait to buy this product , really really nice . This is not your typical light weight knock off. This is the real deal. Heavy enough to keep you warm and toasty. It has a really soft inner lining that's not like the outside at all , This will last you a very ,very long time ". Quality" hands down the best I have ever seen sold anywhere any time. I'm telling you , this is hands down the best value you will ever see sold. Period !!!!!! I'm ordering a couple more to put up in the closet . Have already bought 2 !!!!! It does have a slight smell , but I hung outside and it went away. Fantastic buy , and I wasn't sponsored or given anything. Just wanted to let the hippies know "This is the real deal" Buy it !!!!!!!!!! Peace. P.S. For the money you cannot go wrong , heavy duty and warm!!!!!!! Not a lightweight knock off . This is the BOMB !!!!!I. Love. This. Burnt. Night. Baja. Hippie. Hoodie! It’s SO beautiful and It fits well. I didn’t NEED IT but the colors are rich and lovely. They speak to me. {black, red, blue, orange}The sleeves are ridiculously long but are easily folded up. I have long arms so was a little surprised at their length. I guess it’s still a man’s world. Lol. Sort of.I have worn this every day for a week but not washed yet.My only “suggestion” (possibly, Complaint) is that there are these ties at the neck which are thick as hot dogs and so short (proportionally) (maybe 9” long) that they serve no real purpose. I _might_ try to remove and re-fashion to my own liking.I recommend these hoodies!Bit on big size but I likeI ordered a size larger than usual because other comments suggested it was on the small size. Should have ordered two to three sizes larger as it way smaller than expected! Quality is good though.perfect thing for a cold winter day, curled up on the couch. I normally wear a 3xl, so ordered that size, and its a nice fit.Not worth the purchase, true to size before washing, but shrunk down by at least 2 sizes
