A Legacy of Performance: PGI identified some 40 years ago that a flame resistant hood was a integral component of a firefighter's personal protective ensemble. It’s only fitting that the originator of the first firefighting hood would develop a new generation of firefighting hoods for today's first responders. PGI builds off the winning performance of their Cobra™ Ultimate™ hood line to create Cobra™ NextGen™ Hoods featuring an innovative design that combines exceptional fit, superior performance and unsurpassed comfort.
Cobra™ Sure‑Fit™ hoods incorporate a 3" wide center panel rather than the traditional center seam, which allows PGI to contour the hood to the shape of the head for improved fit and comfort. Additionally, Cobra™ Sure‑Fit™ hoods have a little extra fabric (ease) built into the design which improves the hood’s thermal resistance from flame and heat due to the extra space adding a layer of air between hood and head and reduces the likelihood of the face opening pulling away from the SCBA mask when head is rotated.
