I have always called a light top with a full zipper to be a jacket, however the people I'm surrounded by insist on calling it a sweatshirt. I'm prepared to be wrong, just wondering if I'm the only one.
Standard haxor uniform for posing for pictures.
Missing are the black jeans, black sunglasses and/or the Guy Fawkes madk.
When I was growing up, we called these “sweatshirt jackets.” So, yes.
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.
In German: Kapuzenjacke
Hooded sweatshirt.
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.
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.
I always called it a sweat jacket.
