Hood Basic

When you live as dangerously (and arguably illegally) as you, it’s important to keep all the necessary protections on hand. A hidden knife to protect yourself is important, but if you had to give a young thief some important advice--you’d tell him to hide his face with a good hood.

Your Basic Hood protects your identity from would be assassins and hangmen with a hungry noose. So long as you are quick on your feet and look out for yourself, this is one piece of gear that is liable to keep you thieving for a long time.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Basic Hood is a hood with a short mantle and long hood tail. The mantle covers the shoulders, keeping the upper chest covered while the roomy hood can be pulled down to cover part of the face. Made of medium canvas, this lightweight hood provides protection from the elements without being too warm in potential heat.

Wear this hood by simply slipping it over your head--it’s easy and comfortable. Hoods are great garments for rounding off your look, and the Basic Hood is a traditional layer that fits a wide variety of character types.
