I don't understand the point of this. A hoodie is for when you don't want to put the effort in to think about what you're wearing. A blazer is utterly pointless with a hoodie. You might as well just wear a good coat. But if it's cold enough for a coat, why are you wearing a hoodie?
I lived in NE PA for a couple years. You learn pretty quick that the hoodie is a working man's scarf. Cuts the wind, snow, rain etc. off the neck and head. I, by recomedation from my new yankee friends, adopted the hoodie under the jacket combo. It is very effective. I still use this when it is cold enough or we get cold windy days back home in the Great State.
That siad, I am talking Carhart or ski jacket type stuff. The blazer-hoodie is odd.
I recomend trying it next time you are out in the cold. While the Yanks are an interesting bunch, they have the stay warm piece nailed.
