Why We Love This Deal
You may know George as the brand that makes incredible T-shirts, usually white, that make excellent undershirts for your office button-ups. However, it’s worth noting that the brand brings its affordable sensibilities to other styles, too, including hooded fleece jackets. One that's become a huge hit among shoppers is actually 40% off at Walmart right now.
The George High Pile Fleece Hoodie is on sale for $12, and it's become a bestseller at Walmart. Though it's marked as a clearance product, you still have a handful of colors to pick from before Walmart shoppers inevitably wipe them out. Well, that's if you wear a small, medium, or large, as XL through 3XL are only available in the light grey color right now, so guys who wear those sizes likely need to order sooner to get one on sale.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Sizes Available: From small to 3XL
- Color Options: 5
- Fabrics: Polyester and cotton
- Best Use Case: A boost of extra warmth in an easily removable layer.
This jacket has a zipper front, two side pockets, and a hood with a lace tie. Its hem and cuffs are ribbed to keep out gusts of wind and are made of a soft fleece and polyester blend that also makes up the sleeve lining and sheel of the jacket. The body is made of a strong and warming high-pile fleece made of pure polyester.
The outer part of the hoodie is made with a waffle-knit that simultaneously feels good to the touch, improves the dexterity of your movement, and is quite warm.
When you think of George, it’s common to think of brands with similar fabrics and styles like Hanes and Fruit of the Loom. What are their fleece jackets selling for? Quite a bit more, with the Hanes counterpart selling for a high $22 and the Fruit of the Loom jacket at a more competitive (but still worse than the George) $17. This George jacket deal is truly hard to beat at this time.

What Shoppers Are Saying
The George hooded fleece jacket has overwhelmingly good ratings, with 85% of all raters giving it a perfect 5-stars. Though the jacket is lightweight and appears to be on the thinner side, wearers have reported that “it is a heavyweight zip up" with "super cozy fleece on the inside.”
Another noted that “it's thicker than the normal jackets I get, but not heavier.” That’s the advantage of this style of fleece.
The George High Pile Fleece Hoodie is now just $12. Again, if you want a size beyond large, the chance to do so is dwindling, so be sure to order soon.
