For pluggers there is almost always a reason for whatever we are doing. Experience allows us to draw that very fine line between lazy and efficient ; )
In Saskatchewan, and this little corner of BC, they are called “Bunnyhugs.” Origins of the term are diverse, from a dance originating in San Francisco in the 1920s to a period of time when hunting rabbits in the province in an attempt to curb the population to hooded pullover sweatshirts sold out of Eaton’s catalogue in the 1950s and 60s.
Never buy a coat without one! Just saying, hoodies don’t do much for pouring rain/snow!I live in the mountains in snow country, I’ve learned to put my socks OUTSIDE my jeans/leggings with my boots so the snow isn’t able to get inside as easily. Works great and no one knows the difference!
i always smile a wry smile when i see another clueless fashion wannabe with the hoodie pulled up while driving, blocking most of his field of view. and give that guy a wide berth…
Husband has 3 zipper sweatshirts – from which he had me remove the hoods – to wear in the house. He has 3 different ones with zippers to wear outside the house, plus he has 2 pullover, hooded sweatshirts to wear outside the house.
“No, wait, I forgot to change to my outside sweatshirt!”

I don’t call what I have a hoodie. I call it a hooded sweatshirt.
I don’t put the hood up unless there’s a good reason.

I do not wear hoodies for a hoodie cuts off your side vision which could get you hurt when walking outside ;-)

And they keep the back of their pants hiked up too.

On a cold day in the rag-top, a hoodie is ideal for keeping the wind off the back of your head.

Hoodies also help cover a Pluggers “Plumber’s butt” when he bends over to scoop the snow.

I wear my earmuffs over top b/c it keeps the wind from blowing in, even when I have it tied tight, the wind blows in. Brrr.

If he wears 4 total a season it is a lot.
