Review Summary

I am very happy with this purchase. I went on a trip to South Australia to dive in 65F water. Rather than diving a 7mm wetsuit (which I didn't have anyway) I brought this 7mm hooded vest to wear over a 3mm suit. It worked out great. The vest is thick but flexible and soft. The hood was snug but comfortable. Combined with some new 5mm boots and gloves I was very comfortable on all of the dives.

I layered this under a 7mm wetsuit for diving in Lake Superior. Together they kept me functional down below the thermocline in 37? F water (for brief periods). Goes on and seals around face well. The air vent on top is far better than that found on the Neoprene versions. I got a M but the hood was stretchy enough to go easily around my L-sized head. A bit short in the torso, but for layering that was okay. It's almost impossible to get off without wearing a rash guard underneath, as it lacks a fabric inner lining, but with rash guard it slides right off. Don't know about durability yet as I've only used it on 8 dives.

This vest and hood are well made and I love the way the hood fits around my face. I stay warm and toasty while diving now.

Diving in new England can be cold . Adding an extra layer to my core has helped me tremendously with that .I highly recommend this product.

High quality and very warm. Excellent pairing with a 7mm back zip full suit. Nice upgrade from a 3mm hooded vest. Southern California water is warm on the surface during summer and fall but there is usually a thermocline. This Hooded vest has kept me comfortable at 60 feet where the water can be 55 degrees!

I can not yet speak to the durability of this product, but after two uses in 50°F water, I am certainly glad I bought it. The vest fits true to size and has good stretch. I wore it under a 7mm wetsuit and felt comfortable. The hood vent performed well.

Very nice vest, worked well in the water when it in the 50's this winter.

Great stretch compared to my old hooded vest. Easy to put on compared to my old hooded vest. I wore it twice under my 7mm full suite in WA (55F) and 8 times under a 3/2 full suite in the Galapagos Islands. I would give it 5 stars except at two locations the inside surface is a little frayed after only 10 dives.

I live in Rhode Island and my favorite pass time is swimming in the bay and exploring the coast line. This vest is the perfect enjoying the cooling fall water. I also plan to use it later in the year to take my non-hooded Henderson wetsuits to the next level.
