Technical features
A 7 mm thick neoprene hood, with plush loop interior, that fits flat against the face with a preformed chin. The central grey band is made of stretch neoprene to best adapt to the shape of the head. Air Expulse system: a system to evacuate air bubbles trapped in the hood. Built-in ring to attach it to the right thigh of the suit.
GBS (glued and blind stitched) assembly
The seams of the hood are watertight, sewn with GBS stitching (Glued and Blind Stitched): the neoprene is glued first of all, then sewn for maximum strength (the sewing needle does not go completely through the neoprene in order to prevent water infiltration).
Tips on how to take care of your neoprene hood
1) Soak the inside and the outside of the hood in clean water after each session.
2) Clean with a bactericide solution.
3) Rinse thoroughly in clean water.
4) Dry in a dark and well-ventilated place. Exposure to direct sunlight causes the colours of the textile parts to fade and speeds up the ageing process of the neoprene.
