⚡ At a Glance
- • Wearing Comfort: Snug, low-profile cowl with soft inner lining reduces chafing and improves seal
- • Best for: Open-water swimmers, scuba divers and surfers needing thermal head protection
- • Not ideal for: Warm-water activities or users who prefer a loose, casual fit
3mm neoprene provides thermal insulation with reinforced glued and blind-stitched seams. A top vent and rubberised hex back panel improve breathability and mask grip.
Stay warmer during long sessions - thanks to 3mm neoprene construction
Three millimetre neoprene traps a thin layer of water that warms against body heat, while glued and blind-stitched seams reduce flushing. Soft inner and outer linings add insulation and comfort.
Improved head and neck warmth lets swimmers and divers spend longer in cold water with less discomfort.
Stable mask fit - with rubberised hex print on the back panel
A hexagonal rubberised print on the rear panel increases friction between the hood and mask strap, helping the strap stay put during movement. The low-profile cowl also keeps the strap close to the head.
Fewer adjustments and reduced mask slippage, useful for active snorkelling, surfing and scuba.
Balanced comfort on the surface - thanks to a pressure-relief vent
A small vent hole at the top allows trapped air to escape efficiently, preventing buoyant pockets around the head. The vent improves comfort and aids balance when wearing full wetsuits.
Easier equalisation and steadier surface swims make handling equipment and paddling feel more natural.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this keep me warm in cold water?
A: Yes, premium thermal wetsuit material and 3mm neoprene help retain body heat and reduce water entry, improving warmth during cold-water activities.
Q: Will the hood stop my mask from slipping?
A: A rubberised hexagonal print on the back panel increases grip against the mask strap, helping to prevent slippage during dives and paddling.
Q: How should the hood fit for best results?
A: Designed for a snug fit to maximise insulation; the cowl may feel tight when dry and loosens slightly underwater, so consult the size chart and consider one size up for a more relaxed fit.
🏆 Our Verdict
