Hi. I appreciate if you can share your wear and tear (as well as color fading) with the scuba hoodie you own. (half zip, full zip and funnel neck).

Especially for the scubas that you wear on regular basis. (not like once a month)

I see a lot of bad reviews on the web site so it would be helpful if you can share your experience.

I own 2. First one was purchased in March 2022, half zip in Heathered Core Ultra Light Grey. I have worn this over 100 times, and it is still in good shape.

The stains do come out and a there is bit of pilling in the inner fleece.

The second one was Funnel Neck in Grey Sage. Bought March 2022, and developed a tiny hole in the ribbed fabric area under the left armpit in 6months.

Also, I washed this in cold gentle cycle inside out, but after the laundry was done to so I can air dry, the scuba was not wet/damp at all as if was water repellent…

Also, there is some color fading and I don’t know but some weird stains on the back which I have no clue. (not like I spilled food/drink )

Since then, I do not feel like buying any more Scubas but just wear the HCUL until it breaks.

    They do shrink. Additionally, my black full zip has faded quite a bit, I had a deep luxe full zip that after about 8 washes the seam on both sleeve cuffs started coming undone (quality promise replaced with gift card). Recently I ordered a lilac ether half zip and noticed a loose seam on the back so I immediately returned it. Otherwise I haven’t had additional issues, but after the seam issues I now order 2 of what I want and examine the stitching closely and keep whichever one looks like it will hold up better/doesn’t have flaws. And fwiw I haven’t had any piling issues.
