Etymology
The term 'hoodie' is derived from the word 'hood', which originates from the Old English 'hod', meaning 'hood' or 'covering for the head'. The modern hoodie became popular in the 1930s when it was introduced as athletic wear. Initially designed for workers in cold storage warehouses, it quickly spread to become a mainstream fashion item by the 1970s and 1980s, especially within hip-hop culture. The hoodie has since evolved into a symbol of casual comfort and youth culture, frequently used in various fashion trends and as a staple in casual clothing lines.
