What's with Hoods on Jackets?

Jump to new
The origin of hoody culture is in the UK, because they rely on millions of surveillance cameras to do their police work, its important if you're bad to wear a hoody so no one can ID you on camera. And its important if you're not bad to wear a hoody so no one can tell you're not.

Other than that, yeh its just a direct stopy or styled influence, but that's where it comes from.
 
Another way to get around the CCTV I guess - is we could all wear burqas - or nuns headdress?

Meanwhile, try wearing a balaklava or a bike helmet into a bank - see how far you get

PS How do you solve a problem like Mario ?
lol - If I was a bank teller, and that bloke appeared, I'd press the red button straight away.

Interesting confluence of events: bit of a cold snap in Sydney co-inciding with Fashion Week.

Thus, this evening I have mostly been wearing a wooly green jumper and purple beanie.

I have Russ on the line now...


EDIT ... No, not offering me a game, just seeking fashion advice.
 
Shopping Center in Tweed Heads has joined the "Ban the Hoodie" crowd.

Rightly so, they are all crminials

And there was the predictable flurry of cries of discrimination against a particular style of clothing. The shopping centre management explained that these kids were using the hoods pulled over their faces to avoid being recognised on the CCTV cameras in order not to be caught for their shoplifting and vandalism.
 
As a PBG shareholder, I have no issue with crims, surfers, sk8ers, and football hooligans wearing Bonds hoodies ;-)
