Apeks HX Hood - 7/5mm

Experience reliable cold-water insulation with the 7/5mm Apeks HX Hood. This hood combines super stretch neoprene and a cosy fleece lining. Furthermore, a glideskin face seal minimises cold water seepage into the hood.

The hood provides optimal warmth. Specifically, 7mm neoprene surrounds the head. Conversely, 5mm neoprene on the face area reduces jaw fatigue. Additionally, the internal fleece lining maintains warmth during dives. Subsequently, it dries quickly afterwards.

Customise your fit with the unbound face panel. Moreover, it releases trapped air bubbles via the top vent. Also, a 3D silicone mask grip securely holds your mask in place. Finally, the Apeks Hood incorporates glued and blindstitched seams for long-lasting integrity.

Apeks HX Hood Highlights:

• Super warm 7/5mm neoprene construction.

• Glideskin face seal minimises water entry.
• Unbound face panel allows for custom trimming.
• Top vent releases trapped air bubbles.
