Why It Was Tricky
PARKA is the kind of answer that feels simple once revealed but takes longer to settle because of its letter mix. The repeated A and the uncommon K make the pattern more specific than its everyday meaning suggests, so players can miss it even after the clothing clue is obvious.
This puzzle is best handled by paying attention to the repeated vowel early. Once the first A appears, the key question is whether the word is built like a familiar object name with a harder consonant turn near the end rather than a smoother everyday pattern.
