High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A hoodie (or hoody), is a sweatshirt with a hood. The characteristic design includes large frontal pockets, a hood, and (usually) a drawstring to adjust the hood opening. If they have a zipper they are sometimes called zip-up hoodies. The history of the specific garment began in the 1930s, but historical precedent dates the style and form of the hoodie back to the Middle Ages.
