| Abstract: |
A versatile upper body multi-mode garment is configured to provide a variety of modes of wear with respect to hand coverings and head covering. A coat, jacket, shirt or vest has an integral hood which covers the wearer's head. Within the hood is an integral face shield which may be swung behind the wearer's head or neck when not covering the face, enabling protection of various portions of the face. The hood may be tightened to expose a variable extent of the head or face. Versatile multi-mode mitten portions attached to the garment or mittens provided separately enhance a variety of modes of wear which are achieved without removing the mittens or any portion thereof. The wearing modes include full exposure of a hand, exposure of the thumb and the four fingers, exposure of the four finger tips, full hand coverage, and full hand coverage by an integral glove. The hand coverings may be provided as separate mittens.
