Hoody Club Deansgate Manchester
Dear Lorraine
Another nice cold, windy spell of weather and loads of hoods up everywhere.
Nice to see some real hooded, long SBR trench coats being worn by a couple of well-off-looking young women in Trafford Centre the other day. Nice big hoods with button masks over their mouths and noses. Long, black coats reaching well below the knees and over their black, shiny wellies.
It's enough to make you change from parka and hoody-hood fancying to taking up SBR trench coats!
Another successful meeting of the hoody club: nice to meet and not see old friends! Some nice new Alpha Industries jet black snorkel hooded MB3s being worn with long snorkels fully snorkelled up. Looking very sexy and old skool parkaish, lovely shape to the hood and gorgeous for the wearer.
Clair or Clare? Not her real name alas was there. Not only fully hidden in a Swedish parka but wearing a long rubberised German army poncho over it, also with the hood up. Her employer has insisted she wears more and more covering up clothes. Under the concealing hood of her parka she was wearing a balaclava helmet and a neck warmer. She was wearing thick Swedish trousers that match the M90 parka and green wellies, which she said had steel toe caps. She said the German army poncho was to hide the handcuffs she sometimes uses to fasten her hands behind her back. She finds this very rousing. Her employer does not discourage her, though she says nothing improper has happened between them. She has shaved her head and wears an SAS three-hole neopene balaclava all the time. She says she has never enjoyed herself so much.
Some one asked me about these Swedish parkas. They can be worn as a set with bib-and-brace-style trousers. They are also not always waterproof.. . A lot of people do not bother with the trousers and remove the straps inside the parka. I have also removed the strap that retains the rolled-up hood as I never wear the hood down. The parka can be re-waterproofed with spray from a camping shop. They can also be dyed black or at least a darker colour to the rather bright green some of them come in. Having seen dozens of them the colour both outside and the linings do very. Some of the hoods can fall too far forward over the forehead. Try different sizes in the shop. But as a concealing parka that is not too warm to wear in England I know of nothing better. And they're still about twenty pound.
Many thanks as always to Lorraine and staff for maintaining your most enjoyable Club site and our little Covering Up section.
Best wishes
