Globe Guard Hood

Coverage

• The barrier layer runs through the hood rather than stopping short at the most exposed head-and-neck areas.
• The bib cut is broader to keep shoulder overlap more consistent while firefighters move and rotate.
• The hood fits into Globe Guard system thinking for departments tightening up interface protection across the full PPE package.

Fit And Wear

• Panel shaping is intended to sit more naturally around the SCBA facepiece and reduce excess material under the helmet.
• The face opening is elasticized for a more stable seal zone and easier transitions between standby and fully engaged wear.
• A double-seam crown helps the hood sit more cleanly under head protection.

Mobility

• Channel stitching helps stabilize the barrier without making the hood feel rigid during donning and removal.
• The barrier package stays relatively thin so crews are not trading coverage for a major hearing or comfort penalty.

Construction

• Low-profile flat-lock seam construction is used to limit pressure points and improve long-term wear durability.
• The hood is built to stay controlled around the helmet, shoulder, and mask interface instead of creating extra bulk in those transition zones.
