Whoever invented the hoodie will forever be in my debt; it has facilitated my introvert way of living. Let us begin with its various functions.
First, the pocket: it is the most crucial capability of this device and it is by far the most cherished. If I had a dime for every pair of my jeans that didn't have satisfactory pockets, I would be a very rich woman right now. This pocket makes life incredibly convenient, starting with its orientation: it's right in the front. It makes the perfect hand holder. It decreases your awkward levels by a good 40% because it solves the problem of finding the appropriate place to put your hands. Do I put my hands in my pocket at the risk of looking disinterest or slouchy? Do I put my hands on my hips, or is that too cocky? Maybe I should cross my arms, but then that makes me look guarded. Or maybe I should just fling my arms spread eagle?! But that is what Hoodie pockets are made for! Not to mention, it's the perfect catchall for all your junk. As a natural hoarder, giant pockets are a must. I have carried a wide range of objects in my hoodie pocket starting with food, to phones, to just plain trash.
Also hoodies come with great evasive fucntions. Are you at the mall and you come across someone you know from school? well ne'er fear for you can simply throw on your hood. Possible awkward social encounter avoided!
In terms of fashion, hoodies are extremely versatile and socially acceptable in almost every situation. It can be paired with skirts, jeans, and shorts. Perfect for fall and winter, it keeps you nice and toasty in the way that only hoodies can. And if you want to achieve the perfect level of irony and/or utter distaste for the world, opt for wearing a Hoodie in the heat. (Brownie points if the hoodie is darkly colored to increase ironic levels). Plus, every subset of social group wears hoodies making it universal. And for introverts especially, wearing a hoodie can help you blend in with the masses assuming that it's not an eccentric one. Preferably for me, I love wearing hoodies at home with pajama bottoms on lazy weekends. Hoodies are the ultimate garb for housing the headphones or your snacks when your ready to snuggle into your bed losing yourself in your tv show of the moment.
Most importantly, every hoodie is embedded with a story as told by its stains, its tears, it's fading prints, telling the world of the wearers story without him or her having to utter a single word. The hoodie is to the introvert as armor is to a knight or as a shell is to a turtle. It carries protection and the comfort of home all because of a hood and those amazing things called pockets!
Side note: I can't believe I actually found a hoodie that is made to look like armor! How befitting!
