My Zelda Jumper arrived today and it is really good quality. The design is lovely and it does not feel like a cheap piece of crap. The design does not feel too Christmas esque so can be worn as a normal jumper and not look weird. But It is quite a tight fit. I am usually size L on jumpers but had to exchange for a size XL. The sleeves were very tight and it was generally a little too tight/small. Just a heads up.
Edit: So as a final update. The XL size was a good fit for me. But if you are normally XL sized I would say that even the XL size would be too small. Was smaller and tighter than any XL sized jumper I have tried. As shown bellow you probably need to go a size up from what you usually get.
Edit 2: So returning the wrong sized jumper cost me £4.40 via royal mail 1st class recorded. Which is recommended as it covers your purchase up to £50. So keep in mind if you buy the wrong size or buy a few different sizes to find the right one that it will cost you £4.40 per item. (I think 2nd class not recorded was £3.30 but I can't quite remember. So yeah that is an extra cost to keep in mind. Bit annoying as their clothing is just blatantly smaller than the size they claim. Even when going by the measurement guide on their site.

Not sure why Nintendo are labelling these as "jumpers" - besides the one Zelda one, the rest are just printed sweatshirts.

Haha thanks. I remember when I was a kid buying official merch for stuff like Halo (I was a very cool kid as you can imagine aha) and being super disappointed by the quality. Felt like I paid a premium price just for the design and nothing else. This was a nice change of pace.

Shame no children sizes, what's up with it? adults won't wear it, and even size S is way too big for an 8 year old.

Yeah they are aiming for the 15-25 age demographic. I am 22 and I think that you can get away with wearing them. But totally personal taste.

Thanks @purechoass !
I'm buying the Zelda one for a tall, normal build woman. Do you think the XL size will be okay? I've ordered t-shirt from the Store before and they ranged from normal to tiny!

Hey there, I can't really say to be honest. I am a stocky/chubby male but I found the fit to be smaller than I expected. I usually go for L with jumpers but It was quite tight around the arms and was certainly a tight fit.
But honestly I think for a normal build woman XL might be too big. I'd get two and keep the one that fits well. Basically get one size down from what you would usually get when buying Jumpers/Sweatshirts.
I am in the process of returning the jumper that I originally got (which was too small). I will let you know how the return process is once I hear back from Customer Service. :smile:

Got one last time they were on offer last year, decent jumpers worth the sale price. Nothing more.

I'm all for Nintendo themed chunky Xmas jumpers, but these are - as commented above - printed sweatshirts, cheap ones at that.

I don't know about the other ones. But the Zelda one is very good quality and is Knitted I think. Does not look like a print.

What's the material? 100% artificial scratch fest?
Edit: The Zelda "proper" jumper is 50% cotton; 50% acrylic according to other websites.
The other sweaters appear to be 80% Cotton Belcoro® yarn, 20% Polyester

Zelda one does not feel itchy and I am usually quite prone to the curse of itchy jumpers. Will update once I have worn it for a while.

Would make a great Christmas gift.
