Size Chart

A 5/10mm H2 sandwich diving hood with thicker insulation in key areas, Glideskin sealing and HAVS one-way air vents. Designed around compatible full-face-mask use.

Colour: Black

Size

Clear

The Waterproof H2 5/10mm sandwich hood combines an anatomical neoprene shape with extra insulation in key areas and a vent system for trapped air. Its sandwich face seal is designed for use with a suitable full-face mask, making the mask-and-hood fit an important part of your setup.

Features and benefits

5/10mm insulation layout: 10mm double-layer areas cover key heat-loss zones, with 5mm material in the remaining construction. This concentrates warmth while preserving a shaped fit.
HAVS air venting: the Hood Air Venting System uses one-way valves to release air that collects inside the hood, helping prevent an uncomfortable air pocket at the top.
Sandwich Glideskin face seal: the specially constructed sealing area is designed around full-face-mask use. Check it with your particular mask rather than assuming every mask will seal correctly.
Anatomical panels and stretch nylon: the three-dimensional shape follows the head, and the stretch outer textile helps the hood move as you turn and look around.
Bonded nylon stitching: quality thread supports the panel joins through repeated dressing and use.
EXTEND lining and reflective detail: the inner lining adds a soft feel, while the reflective logo provides a reflective point when illuminated.

Fit and use

Choose a close, comfortable fit without restricting head movement or pressing uncomfortably on the jaw. Check the mask skirt, face opening and overlap with the suit collar together. Hood thickness alone does not establish a suitable temperature or dive duration.

Care

Rinse inside and out with fresh water after diving. Dry in the shade, away from heat and direct sunlight, and use only cleaning products authorised by Waterproof.

Additional specifications

Designed for the harshest cold-water diving environments, the Waterproof H2 5/10 mm Sandwich Polar Evoluted Hood delivers exceptional thermal protection, comfort, and performance. Built specifically with full-face mask divers in mind, this premium hood combines advanced insulation technology with a unique face seal design to create one of the warmest and most comfortable diving hoods available.
The H2 Sandwich Polar Evoluted features 10 mm double-layered neoprene in critical heat-loss areas and 5 mm neoprene throughout the rest of the hood, providing outstanding warmth during extended cold-water dives, technical diving, commercial operations, and expedition diving. The hood is constructed from 100% Microcell Limestone CR neoprene with super-stretch nylon for a secure yet comfortable fit.
What sets the H2 Sandwich Polar Evoluted apart is its innovative sandwich-constructed Glideskin face seal. Unlike traditional hoods, this design is specifically engineered to work seamlessly with full-face scuba masks, creating an effective seal around the mask skirt while minimising water ingress. This helps maintain warmth, improves comfort, and reduces flushing in cold-water conditions.

For divers using full-face masks, maintaining an effective facial seal and preventing heat loss are critical.

Its advanced sealing system, exceptional warmth, and innovative venting technology help keep divers comfortable and focused, even during long dives in extreme cold-water conditions.
