Adidas lightweight 1/4 zip sweatshirt review
We tested this sweatshirt over several laps and under different conditions to see how well it worked.
How tall am I / how am I built?
I am 1.80 m tall and have a slim stature.
What do I usually wear – is it big / small?
When it comes to midlayers, sweaters and tops, I’m usually a medium, and this model was a medium too. It fitted well and was neither big nor small.
How did it fit / feel / performance?
Adidas describes this top as a “lightweight golf sweater,” which seems to sum it up pretty well. The piqué fabric made of 100% recycled polyester is almost weightless and can be easily slipped over a polo or T-shirt.
In fact, it worked very well as an extra layer and under larger tops or jackets. Due to the low weight and the small thickness, I find that there are more suitable models when the temperature drops, such as the adidas Cold.Rdy 1/4 Zip Pullover.
But when I’ve worn it with another piece of clothing, a bigger jacket for example, it really added another layer of warmth and protection to my core.
In terms of wearing comfort, there were no irritating areas on the top and I especially liked the cuffs. They are stretchy and yet conform to the user’s wrists without being too tight. I also liked that the cuffs stayed where they were when you pulled your arm up a bit.

Do you notice an additional detail?
I checked the Crew Navy / Gray option, but there are a number of other beautiful colors to choose from, and I especially liked the white and gray models.
Can you wear it outside of class?
I guess so. It can definitely be worn in other athletic situations, whether it’s playing or watching.
It worked well as a quick little warm up top in the gym, and I’ve worn it on a couple of walks too.
What does it look like after washing / do you have to iron it?
After a cold wash it was perfectly fine and because of the fabric I don’t think ironing is essential. Hanging on a clothes hanger to dry is sufficient and after washing there are almost no creases.
