Hoodie

American football player Marvin Jones wearing a hoodie

A hoodie is a type of sweatshirt[1] with a hood that, when worn up, covers most of the head and neck, and sometimes the face.

The most common 'pullover' style hoodies often include a single large kangaroo pocket or muff on the lower front, while hoodies with zippers usually include two pockets, one on either side of the zipper, in the same location. Both styles typically include a drawstring to adjust the hood opening. Hoodies may be worn for aesthetic purposes, or protection against the weather, such as cold, wind, and rain.
