I didn't notice, thanks! What size is good?
Comparing the description and specs of the fabric of the shirt I have and this half-zip, it appears to be the same material.
But at less than half price, I'm getting another pull-over, and one of these half-zips.
Pull over version I can personally vouch for:

How do you end up with a review sample?
Yeah no shit. How?!?
Free shipping for REI members, otherwise free over $60 looks like.
On "features" section they say 250g

"Heavyweight 250 g merino wool offers a soft feel without the scratchiness"
I don't agree with your statement. I wear a lot of wool clothes from different brands. I wear wool clothes everyday. Eileen Fisher is higher end women's wool clothing company with good quality wool. They don't list gsm.

The more fine then the more softer it feels while higher microns it'll feel itchy. Seems like an important number

I thought gsm shows how thick the fabric is. The higher the number, the fabric is thicker, therefore warmer. I have many wool base layers and non-base layers in different msg with different warmth.
Wool base layer with 150 gsm doesn't feel any rougher or softer than 300 gsm jacket or leggings I have. Or vice versa.
EDIT:
"In the context of wool fabrics, GSM stands for "grams per square meter" and indicates the weight of the fabric, with higher GSM values generally signifying a heavier, thicker, and potentially warmer fabric. "

Sorry. Typo. GSM.

I think it's invite only(and I have no idea the criteria to qualify for the new program since I was grandfathered in from the previous).
It's both an interesting and frustrating program. They send out the 'There is a new offer' email to all the people who have chosen activities in the target demographic, but they have a very limited quantity to give away, it seems like only 1-2 of any given size available and maybe only 1-2 styles - so you might have hundreds/thousands of people who all got the notification at the same time trying to claim 1 of 8 possible shirts. *laugh*
Most often by the time I've seen the email everything available has been claimed, or there is a token tiny sized shoe choice left.
