🧼 Care Instructions for your Neoprene Hood

Proper maintenance significantly extends the life of your equipment. Here are the key recommendations:

Rinse after each session: Rinse your hood with fresh water to remove salt, sand, and chlorine.
Natural drying: Dry it flat and in the shade in a ventilated place. Absolutely avoid direct sunlight and heat sources.
Gentle care: Occasionally hand wash with a special neoprene shampoo to preserve elasticity and avoid bad odors.
Smart storage: Store it flat or hung crease-free to prevent marks and ensure an optimal long-term fit.

Rigorous maintenance not only ensures the cleanliness and flexibility of the neoprene, but also your thermal comfort throughout the seasons.

FAQ – Surf Hoods

✅ Why wear a neoprene surf hood?

Since the head is a major area of heat loss, the neoprene surf hood prevents hypothermia and protects from wind, sun and ear infections due to cold water.

✅ What thickness of neoprene should I choose?

The choice depends on the temperature of the water:

3/2 mm: temperate waters.
5 mm: winter or cold water use.
7 mm: extreme conditions or arctic climates.

✅ Do surf hoods affect hearing or balance?

No. Modern models feature thin diaphragms or micro-perforations at the ears, allowing water and sound to circulate without disturbing the balance.

✅ How do I care for a neoprene surf hood?

Rinse it with fresh water after each use, dry it in the open air and in the shade. Avoid the dryer, washing machine, and direct sun to preserve the elasticity of the material.

✅ Are surf hoods suitable for other water sports?

Yes. They are also suitable for windsurfing, kitesurfing, diving, snorkeling and open water swimming, providing ideal insulation for any water activity.
