This design is new to the UK. It is way cooler than the balaclava and seriously clever. Do you have the problem where your toddler or young one refuses to keep the hat on - well here's your answer - the elephant hood. Pull it over the head, it's on and it won't be pulled off. It covers head, ears and chin all at once. Perfect to wear on a cold windy day, a snowy day. Wear under a bicyle helmet or under a ski crash helmet when hitting the slopes this winter! Great and practical buy. Clever present idea.
