Photo

Anybody have a common-domain photo of a snood? Also, I think there is a difference in style between the snoods worn by Hasidic women today, and the snoods worn in the 19th century... Anybody got more info?

Rationing?

"Snoods became popular again in Europe during World War II. At that time, the British government had placed strict rations on the amount of material that could be used in clothing. While headgear was not rationed, snoods were favored, along with turbans and headscarves, in order to show one's commitment to the war effort."

This is not logical. Commitment to the war effort would be NOT making excessive use of material. Even if its not rationed, it is not going to help the war effort if you wear headwear that uses a lot of material. Could someone clarify or remove?

Er, it's pretty obvious. A snood uses less material than a hat. -- Zsero (talk) 20:48, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not obvious to me and I'd say even debatable. Maybe put this in the article and give some sort of citation proving it uses less material? Hypnoticmonkey (talk) 10:07, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Less by weight if not always less by yardage. Plus the idea was that reused old material would be employed. Johnbod (talk) 12:04, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Neckwear

I don't know of a freebie image to use, so i'll use this to demonstrate what I mean: http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2010/12/1/1291203783455/Carlos-Tevez-and-Robert-H-006.jpg

The neckpiece Carlos Tevez is wearing, would this warant a new article under Headwear, or a new one under Neckwear? Either way, I would think it needs a mention. Narcosis17 (talk) 17:15, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Move

I propose this article is renamed to Snood (clothing) since it can be neckwear, not necessarily headgear. Ben Finn (talk) 16:39, 10 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No, a snood is used on the head to confine the hair. See the OED: "A fillet, band, or ribbon, for confining the hair; latterly, in Scotland (and the north of England), the distinctive hair-band worn by young unmarried women. More recently, a fashionable bag-like or closed woman's hairnet, usu. worn at the back of the head.".

Something worn around the neck for warmth is a scarf or comforter. The tubular buff is multipurpose and so can be worn in various ways. The polar models are made with fleece section and I suppose that is what the footballers have been wearing. The commentator's usage of snood for this is a neologism which is being used for humour and so we should avoid it.

1980's

There is no mention of their popularity amongst men and women in the 1980's. I remember seeing plenty of snoods on Top of the Pops. If anyone could find a nice reference in 'Smash Hits' it would help the modern interpretation of the word. Kayakboy (talk) 22:14, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Neck tube use now dominant

This clothing item is getting more common - but as the neckwear tube that can be pulled up over the mouth and nose, eg by cyclists, footballers. The old hairnet definition (eg. still in OED) is historic. A Google images search shows clearly. Usage of the word has doubled from 2010 to 2020 (ref Ngram). So the article needs to reflect that, and I support a name change to snood (clothing). 112.119.116.84 (talk) 07:06, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Second about neck tubes in soccer

I removed the following, as it is not about the headgear

Association football

Although popular for many years with European footballers like Gianluigi Buffon—in the 2010–11 Premier League season, a number of high-profile players, including Carlos Tevez and Samir Nasri, wore snoods. The fashion was derided by commentators as not manly.^{[citation needed]}

Whereas former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson said he would no longer allow his players to wear snoods,^[1] Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger defended their use, suggesting they serve a medical purpose when players have neck problems in the cold weather.^[2]

The International Football Association Board feels that snood scarves may pose a risk to a player's neck if jerked from behind.^[3] Players in the UK have been banned from wearing them during matches since 1 July 2011. IFAB had a meeting where the issue was brought up, and they were immediately and completely banned on 5 March 2011, due to not being part of the kit.^[4]
