also parka imo doesn't require a hood? or does it? parka to me requires the length that goes down to mid thigh and has those big pockets

― marcos, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 18:34 (nine years ago)

that sounds about right

― mh 😏, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 18:35 (nine years ago)

what's that word the british people use... anorak?

― mh 😏, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:18 (nine years ago)

anorak is hooded pullover w a pocket in the front generally a windbreaker type thingy

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:19 (nine years ago)

― 𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:24 (nine years ago)

― ogmor, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:30 (nine years ago)

in british english it means a waterproof jacket with a hood so could be a parka or windbreaker

a k-way for instance would be called an anorak in britain

hooded pullover w a pocket in the front generally a windbreaker type thingy

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:32 (nine years ago)

u cn replace that with often or whatever i guess

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:32 (nine years ago)

while we're in the business of inventing definitions I'd say an anorak is not a jacket. also that's not a pocket

― ogmor, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:33 (nine years ago)

if its not a pocket what is it

love throwing semantic bombs into clothing thread

― mh 😏, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:34 (nine years ago)

anoraks vs children which is worse

― badg, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:35 (nine years ago)

what if the pocket is on the left side

― F♯ A♯ (∞), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:35 (nine years ago)

obvs non of these definitions are set in stone and are complicated by the fact that ~marketing~ is involved but i think if something is called something 90% of the time we cn go w that

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:36 (nine years ago)

it's a mesh vent. I guess it is a pocket in shape but it's not for storage

― ogmor, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:37 (nine years ago)

infographic would help tbh

― F♯ A♯ (∞), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:37 (nine years ago)

yrs is some sort of deconstructionist anorak and ur under arrest

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:38 (nine years ago)

lagon has truly "jumped the shark" in this thread

― 𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:39 (nine years ago)

if jumping the shark means knows the definitions of different types of jackets then yes

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:39 (nine years ago)

anorak is also slang for nerd/someone with obsessive interests. you guys are bordering on being anorak anoraks

― ogmor, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:40 (nine years ago)

analraks

― F♯ A♯ (∞), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:41 (nine years ago)

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:41 (nine years ago)

― F♯ A♯ (∞), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:43 (nine years ago)

not funny guys i'm .., anoraksik

srsly wtf is a parka though, like strict definitionwise

― flopson, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:50 (nine years ago)

hooded thigh length jacket

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:53 (nine years ago)

so if something rests above hips or below knee, it's not a parka?

― flopson, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:55 (nine years ago)

if its longer it cn still be a parka but those r usually only for ladies or extreme cold

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:56 (nine years ago)

actually jealous of ladies calf length parkas, thats a complete ecosystem

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:56 (nine years ago)

ah nice, thx

and the ones that sit on waist are bombers?

― flopson, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:58 (nine years ago)

or bomber has no hood?

― flopson, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:58 (nine years ago)

bomber cannot have a hood

― marcos, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:59 (nine years ago)

need a complete taxonomy

― flopson, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:59 (nine years ago)

i always thought bombers had the big elastic at the waist and collar, not sure what u call just a regular ol jacket

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 19:59 (nine years ago)

why would a pilot wear a hood

and that is the origin of the bomber jacket

― marcos, Wednesday, 21 December 2016 20:00 (nine years ago)

atrocious fashion is not confined to practicality

― F♯ A♯ (∞), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 20:02 (nine years ago)

mountain parkas are only waist length

― Islamic State of Mind (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 21 December 2016 20:11 (nine years ago)
