Product Information
Full details
The Castore Back Hoody in Black (XS) is designed for adult females seeking comfortable, casual activewear. Its key benefit is providing a stylish and functional layer for everyday wear or light athletic activities. A potential caveat is that its specific sizing (XS, UK 6) may not fit all body types. This hoody features a forward shoulder seam, self-fabric folded cuff, a three-piece hood, and a kangaroo pocket for practicality. A jersey-lined hood enhances comfort, and a heat-sealed Castore logo adds a branded detail.

FAQs
What material is the hoody made of?
The product information does not specify the exact material composition, but it includes a jersey-lined hood for comfort.
Is this hoody suitable for intense workouts?
This hoody is best suited for casual wear, recovery, or light activities. For intense workouts, breathable, moisture-wicking activewear is generally recommended.
How do I find other sizes or colors?
Please check other listings for the Castore Back Hoody, as this specific product page is for the Black XS variant. Other sizes and colors may be available separately.
Can the kangaroo pocket hold a smartphone?
The kangaroo pocket is designed for general storage. Its depth and width should accommodate most standard-sized smartphones, but larger models may fit more snugly.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood is a 3-piece design and is not explicitly stated to be adjustable. It offers coverage as is.
What does 'forward shoulder seam' mean for comfort?
A forward shoulder seam is shifted slightly towards the front, which can reduce chafing and improve freedom of movement, especially when wearing a backpack or during activities involving arm movement.
