To provide a vehicle hood structure producing a load reaction force to be input to a striking member in a more suitable manner even when the striking member collides against a part near an intermediate position between a hood usual part and a hood front end edge, and a load for deforming a hood inner panel of the hood usual part and a hood locking reinforcement member of the hood front end part, acts on them.
A rear end part 40D of a hood locking reinforcement member 40 is constructed such that several legs 48 spaced apart by a predetermined distance in a width direction of the hood and extending toward the rear part of the hood are connected to a flat part 26 of a hood inner panel 18. Some crush beads 24 are formed along a hood width direction at a substantial central part of a frame part 20 in a forward or rearward direction of the hood of the hood inner panel 18, and at the same time some small beads are formed in a substantial central part in a hood width direction of a flat part 26.
