This is a jersey material, front-opening hoodie. It's the kind of thing you throw on when it's a little chilly. It's not made of fleece or brushed fleece. Both pockets have zippers, so you don't have to worry about things falling out, which makes them convenient. I bought this for my son, but he prefers to wear black, so he only wore it once. I think it still has plenty of life left in it. Thank you.
