About Waterproof 5/10mm H1 High Visibility Bibbed Hood Medium Large Item# 30803

The body reacts to cold and heat by adjusting the blood stream to different parts of the body, like hands, fingers and feet. But the body cannot adjust the blood flow to your head. This is to ensure brain function at all times. The colder it gets, the more heat you lose from the head by radiation, or by conduction in the water. You stay warmer with an effective hood. Waterproof H1 hoods are constructed with these scientific facts in mind and are proven to keep you warmer when you need it most. That is what we refer to as Facing Reality".

An extra warm hood developed for the polar areas yet still extremely comfortable because of the more flexible 5mm neoprene around the neck. Hood has an anatomical 3-D shape for added comfort and warmth. The H1 High Visibility Hood features a high visible orange colored surface with reflective patches for ultimate visibility and detection in choppy sea conditions in addition to the standard 10mm double layered protection in critical heat loss areas and glide-skin seals for the neck and face. H1 5/10mm HVH includes the unique HAVS (Hood Air Venting System) which uses one-way valves to vent annoying air build-up in the hood. Seams are glued and the I-Span super-stretch nylon, with bonded hi-quality nylon thread sewn. Hood is available in multiple sizes.
