Great (and warm) Hood

Purchased for my Mrs. We dove Belize in FEB weeks after receiving this product. She said it was well cut to her head, neck and allowed her mask to fit well after a few minutes of playing around with it. After the first few dives she was hooked on it as it kept her warm on 50 min+ dives, sometimes 3 per day.

Excellent hood, excellent value

The sizing chart worked perfectly, and the Hood fit perfectly. For the first time since I started driving Cenotes (inland freshwater springs) recreationally several years ago, I was not at all chilled. The springs are just a few degrees cooler than ocean diving – about 72°F I believe. I would recommend this hood to friend without hesitation.

The Mares Flexa Hood may be the most comfortable diving hood on the market today. Its 6/4/3 double lined neoprene construction offers incredible comfort and flexibility where you need it. Thick 6mm neoprene covers the top of your head where most heat loss occurs. The Flexa hood offers the Mares venting system to allow any potential air trapped in the hood to escape. This feature keeps you incredibly warm on your dives. An anatomical cut, flex neoprene face pocket, and anatomical bib offer you great, watertight seals and unmatched comfort. Bib layers with exposure suit neck for low water exchange keeping you warmer longer. All seams are glued and sewn for strength and added warmth. Hood is available in multiple sizes.
