For me, this is the perfect hoodie.  It's very lightweight and not bulky with all the fuzzy interior that some sweatshirts have.  It's incredibly soft and the color is very true.  It's a thin hoodie - which is the kind I prefer for nippy CA weather but certainly not something you want for really cold weather but perfect for staying warm while running errands or even if there's a slight chill in the house.  FYI...The draw strings for the hood are CRAZY long and I had to cut them.
