Abstract

An outerwear garment comprises a body of water repellent material, a neck formed in the garment, and a hood secured to the neck. An opening is formed at the front of the hood so that the face of the wearer is exposed, and a resilient drawstring pulls the perimeter of the opening against the fact of the wearer. A brim projects forwardly from the hood at the upper end of the opening to protect the face of the wearer of the garment. A pocket is formed in the interior of the brim. The bill of a conventional athletic cap is inserted into the pocket when the cap is worn. Manual adjustment devices, at the rear of the hood, allow the wearer to draw the hood tightly about the head of the wearer. Resilient inserts may be secured between the hood and the neck of the garment. The hood and cap move in unison, without slipping and impairing one's field of vision when the wearer rotates or pivots his head.
