There’s no better word than ‘cosy’ to describe the perfect festive season where you get to enjoy mulled wine by a fireplace with cinnamon spice aroma filled up the room. Marks and Spencer has transcended all these elements into their Borg Textured Half Zip Sweatshirt.
The soft-to-touch thick fleece and the rich chocolate brown shade are the natural pairing to make the fashion top an ultimate ‘cosy’ piece to wear in cold weather. The £35 top, featuring a high collared neck and a half-zip fastening from M&S collection is available in five sizes from extral small to extra large.
Many shoppers bought the top for a timeless look and as a cosy layer to wear on chilly days thanks to the borg-textured and ribbed cuffs to block the cold out.
Pair this sweatshirt with joggers or thermal leggings for an athletic look; it can also be worn with jeans or stretch cord trousers. If dark chocolate does not compliment your skin tone, there is two other colour options – black and light natural.
It can also be worn on its worn or with a thin turtleneck top under as a base layer. One customer left a top-rated feedback as she wrote: “Love this fleece in a beautiful shade of rich chocolate brown. I’m a UK12, 5’8 and medium is perfect relaxed fit on me. Probably could have got away with a small. Sits just below waistband which I like as don’t always want oversized look.”
A second also commented: “It is very soft and cosy borg nice pockets make your hands really warm, good quality material, I loved it.And a third person said: “This is a lovely jumper, the lining is thick and feels really warm. I wear it as a substitute for a coat and love it”.
But some shoppers knocked a star out and explained the top “is slightly too short in length” and described it as “cropped style” despite the website listed it as “easy, regular fit”. One woman said she didn’t mind the short length and explained: “Nice quality fleece, beautifully warm. Cropped length is perfect for me being 5’2” and not liking my clothes to swamp me.”
