You know you could just line it with the same fabric in the other colour and make it reversible. Then you have a nice colour blend on the inner part of the hood. This will probably jack up the price and make it horribly heavy. Just a thought...

charcoal, yes. I think it would be interesting with angled pockets

I'm in - charcoal, not sure about pockets though... diagonal almost seems to casual. Hell, I wouldn't mind not having any pockets at all.

Charcoal for sure. A tan/off-brown would be cool as well. Put me down for one.
I'm not seeing the cardigan or vertical pockets. Pockets on hoodies should be handwarmers. It's awkward to warm your hands in vertical pockets.
I think traditional hoodie pockets would work (i.e. slanted patch pockets).
Big ostentatious buttons like those look ridiculously feminine. I'd prefer inconspicuous snaps -- more utilitarian, durable, and easier to do and undue with one hand.

Yes on either color.
I think traditional hoodie pockets would work (i.e. slanted patch pockets).
+1, with the additional caveat that I'm not seeing the need for pockets at all. I think it would be better without them.
Another idea: can we add an extra button up at the beginning of the hood itself? Think the EG raglan hoodies, which can button up a little extra high, either to help protect your neck from the cold or to help with layering underneath a jacket with a stand-up collar.
On the buttons in general, I agree that I'm not a fan of large and conspicuous buttons. Smaller buttons, in maybe a slightly contrasting color? E.g. if the piece is in charcoal, the buttons could be a medium gray? I'd rather not a button color like black or brown, since that forces you to commit to layering the piece under a matching color of outerwear and limits versatility.

Yes on the charcoal, and yes to having no pockets.

Looking through the button catalog really quick and these popped out at me. I have to call to see what they all are made of. Number 1 looks metal, but not sure about the other ones. I was thinking jet might like the last option...

Yeah, that would make the price more like $250 and we would be afraid to run to layers of thick thermal through the serger
