A swacket.

RagnvaldG ,

It does sound better than a jackshirt.

Sweatshirts are double-layered pullovers, typically non-woven. Sweaters are single-layer pullovers, typically knit. Jackets have buttons or zippers. Hoodies have hoods and are made of fabric (e.g. raincoats are not hoodies).

You can have hoodies that are also sweatshirts, or hoodies that are also jackets.

This garment pictured in your post is a jacket. It is also a hoodie. It is neither a sweatshirt nor a sweater.

This is just my interpretation of the situation. I don't know of any formal classification system for outerwear.

Ugh, I spent entirely too much time arguing this when I was still in school, ironically the most time we spent arguing with men that were more than twice my age and felt way too strongly about this.

This is the right answer and I will not be taking any questions: 🙃

  • If it comes as a set with matching bottoms(or a gold chain) = Tracksuit/Sweatsuit

  • Light single layer + hood = hoodie

  • Light (single layer) + zipper/buttons + no hood = Jacket

  • Light (single layer) + knitted = sweater or sweater jacket if it opens

  • The other lighter layers with no hardware are just pullover

  • Heavier outterwear = Coat

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk

You wrote all of that and left out the one in the picture

It’s a zip up hoodie

Just hoodie.

You're missing things like wind breaker and rain jacket - light, zipper, hood.

That my friend, is called a hoodie.

Jackets are lined.

Jackets, often, but not always. Track jackets, windbreaker jackets, shell jackets, etc. Light jackets and coats without lining are pretty easy to find. I even have a light sport coat with no lining.

The only true answer

More importantly, where is OP based that this has become a debate with two wrong answers?!

I'd call it a "hoodie".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoodie

A hoodie (in some cases spelled hoody[1] and alternatively known as a hooded garment)[2] is a type of sweatshirt[1] with a hood that partially or fully covers the wearer's head or face.

Wikipedia says that the zipper can be a defining characteristic:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacket

List of jackets

  • Hoodie, a zippered hooded sweatshirt (non zippered can be considered a sweatshirt only)
Bob_Robertson_IX OP ,

List of jackets

  • Hoodie, a zippered hooded sweatshirt (non zippered can be considered a sweatshirt only)

That clears things up... this jacket is a zippered hooded sweatshirt.

Wait, that resolves nothing!

Hooded sweatshirt.

Vedlt ,

I insisted on calling them this throughout high school because I thought the word hoodie was dumb. Tbh I was probably annoying about it. Eventually I caved, but I still think hoodie is kind of a dumb word. So is jumper for what it's worth.

garbagebagel ,

I know they're essentially the same thing but when you say it that way I think of a hooded pullover, but hoodies are zippered for me.
