I'm not 100% sure what that is
I know more or less - I've got a sleeveless hoody that I really like - but if you get one of those body warmer things, you will look like you swam to New York after your transport sank.

I don't want a massive padded one
but something to keep my torso warm while I'm walking around looking at the sites.

New York can still be very warm until November - you may not need one.

That's why I thought go wit one of them rather than a full on coat.

I'm going to cop flak for this
but TopMan have got some really nice zip-up sleeveless hoodies in at the minute, they're warm but by no means sweltering. And they make you look COOL

I'm not shopping in Topman Darth
I actually have money.

Good attitude
Why pay less for something?

I also don't want a hoody.
I want something like this:

But I don't really want to spend £80 on it.

3. Cut hood off
4. ???????
5. Profit

Is that gee as in indian style "ghee" or the american style "Gee dad, way to lynch a black fella"

(Bazongaloid, Wed 28 Sep 2011, 12:06, Reply)

neither, really
I'm not sure I can write it phonetically. The "g" should be like the one in Gilles, as in Villneuve.
