We spent over two years developing the Hood and tested every kind of waterproof closure available. Our goal was to create a closure that was both simple and strong enough to withstand dusty, abusive conditions and thousands of uses in a tank bag. We even experimented with kayak hatches for six months. Although the hatches didn't work out, they did lead us to the idea for the Hood.

The Hood achieves its waterproofing through a welded-seam, lockable, and waterproof clamshell lid, which we call a 'hood', that rests on an equally waterproof, welded-seam base. The hood pushes against a strip of piping that runs 360 degrees around the base. A rain gutter, just below the piping, stops any water that tries to work its way up the sides. We even tested it with a pressure washer at the car wash, and everything inside stayed bone dry.

The interior of the Hood features a large, open main compartment with a removable sewn-seam wallet designed to hold items such as cables, headphones, batteries, and credit cards. The Hood also includes a charging cable and headphone pass-through port, allowing you to connect your phone and other electronic accessories directly to the battery.

On top of the Hood, you'll find a Hypalon MOLLE Panel for adding MOLLE accessories like our waterproof Map Pocket or Navigator Cell Phone Pocket
