Abstract

A hooded garment comprises a torso portion, a hood portion attached to the torso portion and provided with a frontal face opening having a peripheral edge and a hood channel extending around at least a greater part of the peripheral edge, and a flexible drawstring extending through the hood channel. The drawstring is provided to adjust the effective perimeter of the peripheral edge of the face opening. The drawstring includes a middle portion slidably disposed in the hood channel, a first side portion extending from one side of the hood channel and a second side portion extending from another side of the hood channel. The first and second side portions are disposed outside the hood channel in the hood portion so that a greater part of each of the first and second side portions is hidden within or behind the torso portion.
