I'm gathering from the reviews that there's no drawstring for the hood. Otherwise, does it seem to stay securely on your head(s)? Thank you.

The zipper goes up to the chin, so it stays on...but I don't know if I'd say "securely." If there is a lot of wind, i kind of blows up...but not off (if fully zipped up).

When it's cold and windy I wrap a scarf around my neck on the outside of the coat. The hood stays put and my neck stays warm.

Correct...no drawstring. Unfortunately I returned before wearing so I'm uncertain how well the hood stays on without a drawstring. I did not have issue with the hood with a rain jacket I have from Columbia...hood stayed secure without a drawstring while in wet conditions on a boat.

No, the "cord" that wraps around your head is a fixed length. It has a spring quality to it though that keeps it tight against your head. I've had mine for a month now. My wife and I both use them and she has a much smaller head than I do but the fit us both well.

If you tighten the headband pivots well, you will be able to keep the light-box above your head from striking your forehead. If this doesn't work you may have something missing. An additional roughed-up plastic washer might do on one or both sides. I hope this was helpful. DAVE

It is like a hood that comes down and covers the eyes. It does have Velcro, and my son actually would not wear it because of the Velcro. He said it scratched his chin. It comes off fairly easy, and I sewed on some string to your and and he was much happier.

I guess that's a bit of a crapshoot. I went with the large and while the hat I think is a little big, the band Columbia used on the inside made up for the size difference. Hard to explain. The way the band is designed, the hat stays on my head with no issue in fairly strong wind. It's like the band tightens up more as the wind tries to take the hat off my head.... Hope this helps...Probably not. :-) Btw, if you are female and buying this for your self I would go with the smallest size for sure.

No, my wife has never had any issues with it, and I've used it with a hat and a hood up with no problem.

The Velcro is back there. But I can't say I notice it all. Every once in a while while I flip to my front side I remember it there (when I'm sill awake, never when already sleeping). But really happy with it. FYI. I'm a hobo shift worker. Not associated with anything but myself. Would recommend to anyone

Hat is adjustable, with Velcro to fit your head. depends on how strong the wind and how snug hat is on your head. I wore my other one with smaller brim at the beach yesterday (Hawaii) when strong winds came up for a few minutes. We were having to re-secure the tarps and the food covers. My hat pushed down on my head snugly- stayed on. Of course, this hat has a wider brim, I had flipped my other hat brim up so not as much wind would catch and sail it away. If that windy, even a baseball cap would fly away if not snug.

I do a low ponytail when I wear it. It doesn't have a place for a ponytail to go through but it doesn't sit as low on your head as a regular baseball style cap.

Not sure I understand your question. But if you are asking how the hood stays down it has a rubber strap on each side that holds it down.

Sorry to hear this. I , however have no issues with the drawstring. I do not really use it so perhaps you can just take it out.

Yup. I have had the hood on it every since I put it on the first time. Great hood.

sorry it took so long to respond. I don't have long hair but i don't have any issues with the velcro. If you keep it loose then i don't see why you would have issues on back or side. Most important for me is that its comfortable and doesn't cover your nose. Honestly though, my favorite one so far is from REI.

Mine did. Note the velcro attachments are very cheap and still plastic backed. It works fine for me but i find it annoying at times that the backing is wider then the straps and rubs a bit. Some trimming may be necessary to fix this. I learned to ignore it. Not as top quality as one from a doc but definitely a workable head gear.

As for the hood. There is Velcro at the base of the neck that opens a flap, all you do is roll up the hood and tuck it under, it kind of makes it look like a padded neck. I've never really folded it into itself because it so thin I just fold it normally. Hope that helps!

No mine did not bunch up. I really liked mine and I could not even tell I was wearing it. It did bunch up on the front when it got stretched out.

I don't think you would ever have to worry about it coming loose but I do have a problem with getting it tight enough (probably just me) it works just like a Motorcycle Helmet and is very good quality.
