It's cold out; you'll need your parka.
He wants a parka with fake fur around the hood.

Park a or park a ( two words ) means to put a vehicle where it can be left or stored when not in use ( park ) [ a ] --
He's just learning to drive; he doesn't know how to park a car.
There isn't enough space to park a car here; we'll have to drive around the block.

Now that you know that, you can say --
"It's too hard to park a car when I wear a parka, so I wear a heavy sweater."
