Goodbye Hoodie.

You came into my life shortly after I moved to NYC.

You kept me warm on rooftop parties in late summer and as a middle layer in the depths of winter.

We protested together when justice was not served after the murder of Trayvon Martin.

You helped spark conversations with a Japanese sushi chef whose hometown (相模湖) is featured on your design.

Your sleeves are torn and your zipper is broken now.

I release you. May your spirit be free.

お疲れさまでした。

Adieu.
