Chili Ron Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Howdy, Looking for a medium weight jacket or hoodie or tactical hoodie... Whatever they call em.... Any favorites? There seems to be a hundred of em. I like the idea of vents at the arms but never had any. Does that work or just a gimmick?? Do the ones with lotsa pockets get weird if stuff is put in all of them?

Pat Riot Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 By “Hoodie” do you mean hooded sweat jacket? If so, I bought a zipper front Polo hooded sweat jacket at Walmart for $30 that I like very much. Hmmm, it’s on sale for $24 now. https://www.walmart.com/ip/U-S-Polo-Assn-Men-s-Fleece-Full-Zip-Fleece-Hoodie/851273621 They aren’t China sized either. XL is XL not medium.

Subdeacon Joe Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Hoodies cause crime. Look at police drawings and security camera images for the past decade. At least 75% show the suspect in a hoodie. We need common sense hoodie laws! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I have a couple, the best being made with "Polar Fleece" and pockets in front to place your hands in when it's cold and windy. Nice and warm, especially when you pull the hood up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl Brasse, SASS #3562 Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Bullet resistant might be an option worth looking into, considering the progression of 2020, 2021, it might be a trend for 2023. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warden Callaway Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I don't like hooded anything. I like what they call a truckers coat. Got this Carhartt at Goodwill store for $3 in middle of summer. Looked brand new then. In need of a new one now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first recommendation I thought of was to recommend that you quit using baby talk, and call a hooded sweatshirt a hooded sweatshirt.

Chili Ron Posted January 1, 2023 Author Share Posted January 1, 2023 Howdy, Fella down the street melted some wheel weights and poured into iron skillet. Made me half dozen 25 lb weights for lifting and training. Wonder what those would bring today.....?? 'hoodie' is what the vendors call em, so that is what I call em. Let me ask if you have a penny? Do you have now or ever have had a penny? Best CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD Lud Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 If you use Amazon, bought an Amazon basics hoodie from then and no complaints. Good quality so bought more Amazon Basics.

Chili Ron Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 Howdy, The pockets and stuff are interesting and different. And having a hood right there in case the weather changes just seems like a good idea. I do have jackets. NORTHERN Illinois. minus 50 or so wind chill last week.

Old Man Graybeard Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I have come to hate hoodies...basically because of kids that think they are cool with the hoods up...no matter what they are doing or where they are at. I have almost been hit several times by drivers wearing hoodies with the hoods up while they are driving...IN THE SUMMER. They don't realize or care that they lose a lot of periferl vision. When I was still working...I had one of the new wave "truck drivers" pull right out in front of me...he was crossing the road from one truck stop to another...because he couldn't see to the sides with the hood up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a Carhart , with a kind of wooly looking fleece on the inside , The regular two pockets . and an inside breast pocket. Not cheap.
