[QUOTE="soberups, post: 954792, member: 14668"] Hoodies are simply jackets with hoods on them that many people wear in cold weather. They can also be items of gang attire, or fashion statements among those who espouse the hip-hop culture. I wore a hoodie the other evening when I walked my dog...because it was 35 degrees and snowing outside. When its 70 degrees in Florida, I would speculate that the hoodie was being worn as a hip-hop fashion statement. Sometimes I find myself getting an attitude when I see these kids of today wearing hoodies, untied shoes, and pants that sag halfway down the back of their asses. When that happens I force myself to look back about 27 years or so to when[I] I[/I] was their age, and walking around with acid-washed ripped jeans tucked into the tops of white Nike high-tops, a Def Leppard or Iron Maiden or Rush muscle shirt, a lightning bolt earring, and a mullet. I then cringe, and feel immense gratitude for the fact than any photos of myself in such attire have long ago been destroyed. [/QUOTE]
