Hooded sweatshirts, frequently called "hoodies" have become extremely popular during the last ten years and have taken a significant position in fashion. It's interesting to know that the hoodie was initially developed as a piece of clothing that was mainly worn by the workers, but nowadays this article of clothing is preferred by the greater part of the modern youth. The most famous clothing designers offer highly fashionable hoodies at a price ranging from several dollars and up to hundreds of dollars. So, what's the major reason why hoodies have become so popular lately? Let's speak about those categories of people who wear them the most.
Undoubtedly, hoodies are loved by the younger generation in many countries of the world. The major manufacturers of hoodies come from the urban clothing industry. The popularity of this trend goes back to rappers who preferred wearing these articles of clothing with the only purpose – to look sinister. Nowadays, the trend of hoodies has gone out of its boundaries and is no longer chosen by rappers only. In fact, every urban clothing enthusiast should have at least one hoodie in his wardrobe. The most famous modern hoodie brands are LRG, Christian Audigier, and BAPE (Bathing Ape). Those fashion designers are aware of the thing the young people are looking for - unique designs which would give them the feeling of individual style.

It should be mentioned that hoodies are not purely male clothes. Contemporary clothing designers have designed the hoodies which perfectly fit the figures of young women too. These models of hoodies don't look too bulky like male ones. Women's hoodies are designed in such a way to fit a woman's figure ideally and to emphasize all the curves of the woman's shape. This urban look that includes the hoodie will be perfectly added with a pair of jeans and fly kicks.
The modern hoodie can be seen on people of both sexes not only in the urban area. These articles of clothing are deeply loved by surfers and skateboarders as well. It would be strange to see a surfer or a skateboarder sporting his favorite board wearing some other upper clothes but not a hoodie. The most famous brands for such sports hoodies are Billabong, Element, and Hurley. However, hoodies are worn by sportsmen not only for the reason of making their fashion statement, but they find these pieces of clothing to be really practical and functional. Thus, a surfer gets an excellent opportunity to stay warm after catching some great waves early in the morning, while a skateboarder can stay warm while making his favourite sports in cool weather.
Hoodies are also very popular among the college students, probably, due to the comfort they give. Besides, many universities in the USA have their own hooded sweatshirts with the name of the college printed on them. These hoodies have become an unwritten law for numerous college students to have at least one college hoodie.
However, for most of people too expensive hoodies seem to be just waste of money. But, a hoodie can be also called a designer piece of clothing as it offers a unique design, durability and high-quality material. Expensive designer hoodies won't fade or lose their stitching even after douzens of washes. Besides, hoodies can be worn not only by the younger generation, but also by older people and even small children. Males, females, and children have an opportunity to enjoy the comfort of a modern and stylish hoodie. Many young people have a collection of hoodies at home so that they can choose a new one every day and always look stylish. There're designer hoodies of all sizes, so you'll certainly find one the most suitable for you.
