Women's Dive Hoods & Vests

Women's dive hoods and vests are essential layering accessories for added warmth and thermal protection during scuba diving, snorkeling, and freediving. Designed with women-specific fits and premium neoprene construction, these pieces reduce heat loss, improve comfort, and allow longer dive times in colder water conditions. Whether paired with a wetsuit or drysuit, dive hoods and vests provide reliable insulation and flexibility for year-round diving.

Key Features & Benefits of Women's Dive Hoods & Vests

  • Thermal Protection: Reduces heat loss through the head and core, where most body heat escapes during diving.
  • Women-Specific Fit: Ergonomic tailoring ensures a snug and comfortable fit for female divers.
  • Premium Neoprene Construction: Designed for durability, warmth, and flexibility.
  • Layering Versatility: Can be worn alone or under wetsuits and drysuits for enhanced insulation.
  • Streamlined Design: Reduces drag for smoother movement underwater.
  • Range of Thicknesses: Available in multiple neoprene thicknesses to suit different water temperatures.

Usage Tips for Women's Dive Hoods & Vests

  • Select the appropriate thickness based on water temperature for optimal insulation.
  • Ensure a snug but comfortable fit to prevent water flushing and heat loss.
  • Pair with wetsuits or drysuits for full-body thermal protection in cold-water diving.
  • Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after each dive to extend the lifespan of neoprene.

Size & Fit Guide for Women's Dive Hoods & Vests

  • Snug Fit: Ensures minimal water circulation, improving thermal efficiency.
  • Stretch Materials: Flexible neoprene provides comfort and mobility without restricting movement.
  • Custom Coverage: Choose between hooded vests, sleeveless designs, or full hoods for varying levels of warmth and protection.
