Mountain Hardwear Typhoon Jacket - Men's

Item #MHW1508 | 0 in Stock

By Ranked #1705 - Men's Rain Jackets July 19, 2010

It seems all hoods that accommodate a helmet don't protect well without one (see Beryllium). Is this one of these or will it seal fairly tight to a normal sized head?

jopatco. The hood on this Typhoon Jacket is a little smaller than the hood on the Beryllium Jacket. Therefore, I think it will fit just fine and will seal fairly tight around a normal sized head. Hope this helps!

I just make sure to cinch down the rear adjustment on helmet compatible hoods to get a snug fit without a helmet.
