Rating:  size?

having started at a medium in a Henderson Instadry, I have moved through large, x-large and now 2x-large in the Akona line with very little increase in size. It would be nice if there were size standards across manufacturers

Rating: Runs REALLY!!! small
Reviewer: Jean Carter Wilson, Saturday, April 14, 2007
Im a 55" woman and ordered a size medium (figuring the hood would run to mens sizing...I wear a mens medium in shirts and other gear). It was so tight I could barely breathe...so I returned it for a size XXL, which is STILL just plain too tight.
I wonder if this is a piece of childs gear thats been mislabeled...? The XXL they sent me might fit a 12-year-old girl. Its thick fabric and well made, though.

Rating:  Akona 6.5mm hood
Reviewer: Thomas Lawson, Sunday, November 26, 2006 - View all my reviews
If you go with this hood, you want to go a size larger than normal as it fits small. The face needs to be severely trimmed as well. I ended up buying a henderson 7/5 titanium hood, that fits a lot better.

Reviewer: Tamara Storm, Tuesday, September 19, 2006 - View all my reviews
Through no fault of its own, I do not use this hood. I have not been able to find a thick "off the rack" hood of any brand that fit me properly around the throat region. I wound up having to purchase a custom fitted hood that finally worked.

Rating: AKONA BY SHERWOOD 6.5MM ZIPPERED HOOD
Reviewer: Joel Charlebois, Friday, September 22, 2006 - View all my reviews
This is an excellent hood for diving in the Great Lakes from late spring to early fall. Despite the tickness it is very comfortable and flexible. The hood vents trapped air through to exits in the top and the zipper is very easy for one person manipulate. The hood only leaves a very minimal area of the face exposed and has smooths seals around the face and neck. There is very little water exchange.
I have been diving for 14 years and have owned 3 other hoods. This is the best one so far and was the least expensive.

AKONA BY SHERWOOD 6.5MM ZIPPERED HOOD:
This was the best hood I have ever worn! The zipper works flawlessly and smoothly. The seal is good without that hard tug on the jaw that you may normally expect with a 6.5 MM hood.

This product was too thick for my needs - but if I were going to scuba dive in cold water -it would fit my needs.
