Opinion of hoodies

horrible, they make you look like a slob. and no there is no way to dress them up, sorry.

Seconded. No way to make a hoodie look good. Ever.

Not for you guys, obviously.  I, however, look good in anything.

I like hoodies, and do wear them sometimes, but only (strictly) the zippered kind - the pull-over ones are one of the most horrible clothings ever devised.

I second this. Also, a classy Ralph Lauren Polo hoodie looks good on anybody of any age.

I only buy old second hand hoodies from the Olden Times - usually with a fair percentage of polyester, very soft, well broken in, and with a nice drape rather than the bulky ones from the 1990s.  So.. seeking out hoodies from the early-to-mid eighties and even late seventies is like finding diamonds in the haystack, believe me - not easy.  Thankfully I do have a small collection of them.

But I don't think I could ever stoop to wearing something new, particularly from Ralph Lauren.

I'm not a fan personally. They're rather trashy, and I always feel like they're going to choke and suffocate me when I put them over my head.

Dude, you have to get the ones with the zippered front.  The pullover ones are stupid.

I hate them, and I never wear them. My standard dress is usually jeans and a polo shirt.

So, your standard dress is precisely the same level of 'dressed down' as the hoodie.  But what do you wear when it gets chilly?  Does it every get chilly where you live?

I know it got cold in... 77? I know the Herald used its Declaration of War-point font for its headline. May have been 74. I think y'all got some cold in 2010 as well, right? Other than that...

It very often gets down into the sixties at night here, and more rarely, during Nov-Feb, into the 50s.. so a hoodie is just about right.. or a light jacket, or a cardigan.

No, we have PASTORS.

So they wear something simpler like this?

Corrected.

(Yes, Christian band):

That's terrible.  (I think you can tell by looking that there is something wrong with them anyway).
