The Love waves North Seas 3mm Wetsuit Hood is an ideal choice for cold-water surfers, divers, and swimmers who require reliable thermal protection without sacrificing mobility. Featuring 100% Super Stretch neoprene and a cozy thermal interior, this hood excels at keeping you warm during extended sessions; however, users should note that the snug fit is essential for its water-blocking performance, which may feel restrictive to those unaccustomed to tight-fitting aquatic gear.

The hood is designed for a snug fit. Refer to the size options (XS/S, M/L, XL/XXL) and ensure it covers your ears and forehead comfortably without causing pain.
Yes, the 3mm thickness and thermal liner make it suitable for a variety of aquatic activities, including surfing and scuba diving in moderate to cold waters.
While not explicitly marketed as an SPF product, the neoprene material naturally blocks direct sunlight on the covered areas.
The hood comes with a 3-month warranty from the date of original purchase, covering specifically the seams and the neoprene material.
No, machine washing can damage the seams and the neoprene structure. Always hand rinse with fresh water and air dry.
Ensure the hood is pulled down sufficiently and that your hair is not tucked into the seal, which can create gaps.
Ensure the interior is slightly damp or that your skin is dry; using a small amount of water or a dedicated neoprene lubricant can assist if friction is too high.
Check your storage habits to ensure the hood is not being folded or crushed and verify if you are within the 3-month warranty period.
For the best results, ensure the hood sits flush against your skin around the face opening. To maintain the integrity of the neoprene, it is vital to avoid storing the hood in direct sunlight, which can degrade the material. Always rinse the item thoroughly with fresh water—both inside and out—after every use to remove salt, sand, and chlorine. Once rinsed, lay the hood flat to dry in a cool, shaded area. Avoid hanging the hood by the neck, as this can stretch the material over time. This product is covered by a 3-month warranty protecting against defects in the seams and neoprene material from the date of purchase.
