Ehh. No vents, no practical pockets, no skirt or gaiters. The water resist is just a coating that will fade with time/washes and you'll have to reapply it.... It's also not ideal for wet days. And it's heavyweight, which pretty much defeats the entire purpose of a riding hoodie IMO. You might as well just get a real jacket unless you're willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of style.

Heavyweight means it's very insulated and good on cold winter days to keep you warm, in which case I would personally rather go with a real jacket with more features. On super cold days you could use this as a midlayer, but I think you're intending to use it as your outter layer. I would not recommend this for spring riding or warm-temperature days since the "heavyweight" seems to indicate its warmer than normal hoodies.

eh

My friend has this exact hoodie and just wears it to school... its sick but pretty thin... personally I will ride in anything that looks good though since I tend to get really hot when I board and board east coast. with some really solid pants and a couple layers I don't see you having any huge problems as long as you also have a jacket.
