Is it a sweatshirt or a jacket? - Lemmy.World

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.

It’s both, depending on what word my brain decides to use at the time.

But I think usually that would be a “sweater”, a “sweatshirt” doesn’t have a zipper or hood, and a “jacket” is made of, um, jacket material.
