Description Showers Pass' trim–cut Rain Hood mates with a multitude of jackets, and fits under a helmet. The sides are cut back to minimize interference with peripheral vision and maintain the ability to hear traffic. This design also restricts air from being "scooped" when riding. A large overlapping fabric seam, created by the hood and jacket collar, keeps rain out. Waterproof–breathable 3–layer fabric. All Showers Pass Elite, Double Century, Touring and Club jackets come standard with Velcro tabs to properly secure a hood. Black.

Warm and Dry
I haven't had a rain jacket with a hood before so this was something new for me. I really like how easy it is to remove and put on when it's not needed. I use the hood under my helmet and it does just what it should, keep my head dry. The drawstrings work well to keep the wind from blowing the hood off when you are not using a helmet. The only draw back is I can't hear cars as well and you need to be careful so the hood does not block your side vision, the drawstrings helps this. Over all this product is great because I don't always want the hood on and it stuffs right in the pocket when I'm not using it.

Breathable, Rain & Wind Proof
It does what it claims. This design savse you from needing a helmet liner, but the visor won't stay in place under the helmet. I would recommend over the helmet rain hood.
