Questions & Answers

JON G : I usually take a Medium body but a Large hood size.  Is the neoprene stretchy enough for me to order for body size (M) to fit under my wetsuit but still have the hood fit my large head?darrick c : Hello Jon, the material is made out of a 250% super-stretch neoprene. So it should work for you.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?NATHAN S : This is the best hood that doesn't leave my face with a black mark once the glue strats to wear down.REUBEN E : My hood kept coming untucked mid dive on my Neosport farmer john wetsuit. The neckline is also my main water ingress point so we'll see if this helps solve that problem.BEN V : Replaces old stiff hooded vest.RYAN M : This is my third one of these vests for use. I use it as base layer in water down to 48-50 degrees F. Buttery warm, and flexible. It feels good and protects very well. There is a compromise with durability, however. This product will last only about 75 days worth of diving. I get 2 good years out of one.RICHARD B : This is the most comfortable piece of gear I have.CHRISTOPHER H : I already have the Henderson 3mm suit. Looking to add some core warmth for 55+ degrees.DAVID M : Henderson has always made quality wetsuits. I've never been dissatisfied.JOHN G : Looked warm

Great Purchase

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.

Underlayer seals well around face

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.

Great quality vest

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.

Very warm and comfortable.

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!

Review after 2 days of diving in 50°F Water

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.

Great stretch

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.

Perfect for Fall

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.
