Chemical Protective Hood

You never know when you will need a chemical hood. Well, you really don't, hopefully never. I live near a railroad track which hauls 100's of tanker cars of chemicals within a mile of my house everyday. I have (3) M10 gas masks and (3) Israeli gas masks which will work with this hood. Bought 3 hoods. Opened one up to see what it looked like. It was covered with what looked like baby powder. Now I know what all that powder is that comes on old gas masks, baby powder. Like with rubber gloves, the powder helps keep the material from sticking together and so you can get on quickly. It makes a mess. I will tell you this, you think the gas mask by it's self looks scary, wait till you you put this on with it. Left the other 2 sealed, will use the opened one to train with.
Judging from the size, made to wear under a helmet, not over top of it. Top part fits snug around the top of your head.

Not really a great fit for the Israeli civilian mask, but good enough. Obviously intended for the Czech M10. Construction quality looks good and durable. There was a rubbery film coating the inside of the hood that is apparently used in the packing process. It took some effort to fully open the hood in order to make it usable. Not really a issue from a functional perspective, but something to be aware of.
