Abstract

A pullover garment assembly is configured to operate as a garment and a face covering. The pullover garment assembly has a pullover garment further comprising a body that is joined to sleeves and terminating with a collar at a first end and a hem at a second end. A neck gaiter extends upward from the collar from a connection portion joined to the collar to an upper hem. A flexible wishbone bridge bracket is arranged on a front portion of the neck gaiter at the upper hem. A drawstring is arranged through a channel at the upper hem and extends out of the upper hem through a rear portion of the neck gaiter. The flexible wishbone bridge bracket and the drawstring balance tension between the front portion and the rear portion.
