Fold-in Hoods with Velcro. Fold-in hoods that can be secured with velcro or some such loosely adhesive material seem to me to be a kind of social bureaucratic extrapolation from the more representatively antiphysical kind of fold-in hood, which I have described as utilizing a zipper (in watery fashion) and consider to be subordinate to bent-handled collapsible umbrellas with or without, though especially without, recourse to a sheath.  Thus they suggest a sort of radical republican status commensurate, it may be, with heavy metal which, despite appearances to the contrary, would be musically compatible with a kind of church absolutism.
