Hoody - what is it?
Hoodies are often called a variety of sweatshirts, but still they are different things, with a different story.
The sweatshirt is a Russian loose shirt with a front fastener, which was spread from the followers of Leo Tolstoy. In the modern version, this jacket with or without zipper, may have a hood and side pockets. There are also models with a standing collar and a short fastener.
Hoody - a thing of Western origin, is one of the varieties of sweaters and is worn over the head. It is sewn of knitwear and must have a hood (its name comes from the English word hood - hood) and a patch pocket “kangaroo” in front, it can be of different lengths and has a lining.
A bit of history
Hoody, in our usual form, was first demonstrated by Claire McCardel at one of the fashion shows in America. In the 70s of the last century, this clothing item was actively worn by representatives of hip-hop culture and was associated exclusively with the criminal world.
However, the protagonist of the movie "Rocky", wearing a hoodie, helped her gain popularity with adolescents and athletes. And twenty-odd years ago, some famous fashion designers drew attention to it, one of which was Giorgio Armani.
Features and Benefits
