I bought mine last year and they've made a few changes on the new version. Mine has the logo in a different place and they don't offer it in the color I bought. I don't know if they've changed the materials on this run but I can tell you what my tag says:28% Cotton27% Polyester25% Wool8% Nylon8% Acrylic4% OtherIt's a real bummer that the jacket is over 1/4 cotton. It would otherwise be the perfect fleece replacement. I love it around town, but ironically I'm not using in the backcountry.Hey, I just got mine and the blend is more wool. 42%. 37 Polyester, 16 nylon, and 5 polyurethane.
