The hood is removable, so I mostly had it off. My child seemed to find it light and easy to move in. It was worn for one season, so there is some wear and tear. It has also been washed, so the padding has flattened a bit. There is no name written on it. If you are looking for an outerwear that can get dirty from playing outside, or if you understand that this is a used item, please consider it. *It will be sent compressed in a zip-lock bag. #Light Warm Padded Parka
