In this article I review the Men’s Alfresco Parka Hoodie from Born Tough.
It’s a sleek and practically designed hoodie. Which has also kept me warm through winter.
Read on to find out the details of what I thought about it.

It Looks Good, Fits Well and Keeps You Warm
I personally think the black design is sleek and looks good.
Because of the understated design it can be worn in a number of situations.
I’ve worn it around the house. When I’m out meeting friends, whilst playing with my children in the park and for workouts too.
It’s also surprisingly warm even though it’s quite thin.
I was testing this during winter and never had a problem staying warm.
The Hoodie looks stylish, fits really well and kept me warm during the winter. I particularly liked the understated design, which means you can wear it in a lot of situations. In the house, out and about or for workouts. I used it for all three!
It’s Practically Designed and You Can Actually Use the Pockets
I’ve often wondered why the pockets on ‘normal’ hoodie’s were so poorly designed.
Usually you can rest your hands in them. But that’s about it.
if you put anything valuable, like a phone or a wallet, you run the risk of it falling out.
So that’s where the best feature of the Born Tough Hoodie comes in.
As well as the ‘normal’ hoodie pockets, it’s also got two well hidden zipper pockets.
These are great for storing a phone, wallet, or anything else that you might need to.
The pockets are deceptively spacious too. They easily fit my large iPhone 11 as well as other stuff I carry about.
The Born Tough Alfresco Hoodie has zipped pockets, which is great for storing your mobile, wallet, keys or anything else without the fear of losing them. Which is one of the frustrations of most normal hoodies.
It’s Great Value
Even though I got the product for free to review it, the £39 (UK) price tag is great value.
There also seems to be a discount available on the Born Tough range of clothes. So i’ts definitely worth checking out the website to see how much you can get it for.
Born Tough ships to the UK, USA and Australia. Check out the websites here:
