ABSTRACT:
A head of a wearer is covered by a hood to protect the head from rain or snow. The hood comprises a hood body formed of an outer sheet and an inner sheet bonded together to form a space therebetween. When air is inflated into the space, the hood body enlarges to form a solid shape over the entire hood body. An edge portion is formed around a front opening of the hood body. The edge portion, in use, expands outwardly to allow water on the hood body to flow along the edge portion without crossing the front opening. At least one air passage device is attached to the hood body to allow air blown into the hood to pass or escape therethrough. When the air passage devices are formed near ears of the wearer, the air passage devices help audibility.
