the whole point of a raincoat

why does J.Crew hate hoods?

slated in consumed at 9:05 pm
Dear J.Crew, you know (to the sadness of my wallet) that I love you.. but what the HECK is the point of a raincoat withOUT a hood!?
J.Crew Hoodless Raincoat
Is a raincoat that doesn’t keep the rain out supposed to be avant garde?

That doesn’t even make sense! Yes your coat is cute. But even a removable hood would have been a good call. No hood? On a “raincoat”? I know I’m a fan of hoods in general, but there’s a place where a hood definitely belongs, and that’s over my head when things are falling down on top of it! Like rain! If I didn’t like you so much, this would be cause for us to part ways for good. ::frustrated at the impracticality and stupidity of a completely-hoodless raincoat, without offering alternatives::

  1. Um. I kinda love this post. I’d like to say that it’s manly laughter, but the truth is that it makes me giggle.
