Have you ever seen a piece of children's clothing and wished that the brand made the same thing in
your size? Well, that's how I feel about the
Angel Dear Classic Hoodie Jacket from
Makaboo. It is so soft and cuddly. I would like to have all my clothing, bedding, and upholstery made out of the same material.
This
personalized hoodie comes with free embroidery so you can add your child's first name or initials on the front. That's one less thing I'll be required to label when she starts preschool. Plus personalized items always make my children feel extra special.
This hoodie, which is available in a size 0-6mos up to a 4T, comes in six basic colors. Whether you are shopping for a boy or a girl, you should be able to find a color that would be suitable for your little one. The ordering process was very user-friendly and included the following . . .
- Free embroidery
- 5 embroidery colors to choose from
- 5 fonts to choose from
- A reminder to verify your spelling
- A gift message option
This hoodie arrived quickly and nicely presented. It is ready to throw into a gift bag and is also presentable enough to ship directly to a gift recipient.

This
Angel Dear hoodie is made of 100% polyester and is extremely plush. If it were any plusher, I think the embroidery would get hidden in the depths of the nubby fabric. I love how the jacket gently hugs my daughter at the wrists, the hem, and around the edge of the hood. The two front pockets are perfect to keep her little hands warm. She is wearing a 4T, which is her true size. I also love how the zipper matches the jacket exactly and is completely hidden when the jacket is zipped up.
This hoodie would make a great jacket for early autumn. It also can be layered under a denim, fleece, or barn jacket for even brisker weather. The hood is not deep, but does cover my daughter's ears, which is what is important to me. I think a deeper hood might be too bulky in this thick material.
Thank you to Makaboo for sending us a sample hoodie free of charge to base this review upon and for providing a second hoodie for our contest prize.
