Any other fans of Sculatti's Catalog Of Cool books? Was recently thinking of an essay in the first one re: the Windbreaker Hood archetype. First read this around the same time I found a vintage blue towncraft windbreaker in my grandfather's closet.
Here's a link to a site that reprints part of the article. It's #4 on the list.

I'm going to have that in my head all day now - I hope!
thanks GtG, just watched a couple episodes from the 1st season of Mannix yesterday!
Here wis me thinkin' somebody had produced a wind cheater wi' a hood and ye were recommendin' it!
Nae point in postin' ma "but surely that's jist an anorak?" reply noo.
Mannix wears desert boots in several first season episodes. At least one adversary does as well.
