I have the OG Logo Riding Pullover in the Union Camo. I did not like this pattern at first, but it has really grown on me. It is very loud and stands out quite a bit, but has the monotone colors so it's not your typical flashy Saga.
This hoodie is made with a fabric more similar to a softshell, but on the lighter weight side. It sheds water excellently. I have a size large, and it comes down to the upper thigh area (6'1" 170). It is the perfect size for wearing around, I would probably size up if I was going to ski in it.
Features: The kangaroo pocket with zippers is very nice. I have never seen another pullover with zippers on the pouch. There is a small media pocket inside the kangapouch for your phone / mp3 player / walkman / cassette tapes. It has hobo cuffs as well which are essential in keeping snow out of your sleeves. The ribbing is a bit thick so using the hobo cuffs is not super comfortable like it is on most jackets. The sides of this pullover are ribbing from the armpits down. This is kind of funky, but it allows the hoodie to stretch. This is a key feature if you will be skiing in it.
It is not super warm; then again it is not supposed to be super warm. It works very well with a windbreaker / shell over the top. Definitely more of a warm weather / spring skiing piece. The "softshell" fabric does breath fairly well; much better than your standard cotton sweatshirt fleece.
