The hoody appeared in the 1930s in the United States. Similar to the sweatshirt, what differentiates them is the hood.
Initially, it was worn by certain workers who needed to protect themselves from the cold or the rain. At the end of the 20th century, it was athletes and rappers who appropriated it.
Today, it is a garment that is worn by everyone, regardless of age or social class. We like its urban, casual and comfortable side.
