waistcoat or jaeger
From the En-Ru Dictionary:
фуфайка = jaeger/ sweatshirt/ undershirt/ waistcoat/ pull-over
I am don't know which option fits the best, so I give you the reference: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fufajka and http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Фуфайка
The older name in Polish of this kind of clothing is "kufaika".
