> I'd expect an upscale mass-produced hoodie, in terms of durability, comfort, look, and neat features, would be at least $200, if made in America.

May I ask why? where's the cost coming from?

Assuming great quality US grown organic cotton; best quality YKK zips; US minimum wage workers; good quality control; distribution and taxes - I still can't get it to $200 without huge markups. (There's nothing wrong with huge markups. Added value is great if you can get it.)
