The hunter's hood with an adjustable face opening has fabric side panels and a fabric center panel that are sewn together. A face opening is encircled by a fabric tube that is sewn to the side panels and to the center panel by stitches. The fabric tube permits the passage of a persons head through the face opening. An elastic line passes through the right side panel, into the fabric tube, under the face opening, and out through the left fabric tube and side wall. An elastic upper line is mounted in the fabric tube above the face opening. An elastic line right end passes through a right loop end on the upper line. An elastic line left end passes through a left loop on the upper line. Tensioning the elastic line tensions the elastic upper line. Releasing tension on the elastic line releases tension on the upper line.
The cold weather hood includes a left side wall, a right side wall, a rear wall, and a front wall. A face opening is provided in the front wall. A cord passes through a tubular passage around the face opening, and controls the size of the face opening. Shoulder recesses are provided in the lower portion of the hood, and leave a chest flap and a back flap between the recesses. Left and right ear openings are provided in the side walls. Ear opening covers are attached to the side walls above the ear openings. The ear opening covers can be held in contact with inside surfaces of the hood surrounding the ear openings to close the ear openings. The ear opening covers can also be held against the outside surface of the hood above the ear openings by magnets to open the openings for improved hearing.
