The Waterproof H30 2mm hood is a light neoprene hood for warm-water diving and snorkelling. Its shaped panels provide head coverage with less bulk than a thick cold-water hood, helping keep loose hair contained around your mask and suit collar.
Features and benefits
- 2mm microcell CR neoprene: provides light insulation and coverage for warmer conditions without the bulk of a heavier hood.
- Full-panel shaping: the hood follows the head and neck to reduce excess material and make turning your head comfortable.
- Flat-stitched construction: bonded nylon thread joins the panels with low-profile seams.
- Reflective neck logo: adds a reflective point when illuminated.
- Simple warm-water coverage: useful when you want a thin hood with your light wetsuit. Choose more insulation if your diving conditions require it.

More About This Model
This Waterproof H30 Hood 2mm was inspired by the famous H2 Vented Hood series, which made Waterproof a leader in the diving hood market. They also designed socks and gloves, all aimed for use in warmer water.
Gear Care and Washing
Rinse inside and out in cool fresh water after every use to remove salt, chlorine, sand and residue. Gently hand wash when needed with mild soap or a cleaner specifically authorised by Waterproof, following the garment label, then rinse thoroughly.
Keep any vent openings clear and settle face and neck seals gently when dressing. Dry the lining and inside of the hood fully before storage.
Allow both sides to dry completely in the shade with good airflow. Store clean and dry away from direct sunlight, heaters and hot cars. Avoid crushing the neoprene or leaving it folded sharply for long periods.
Protect smooth seals and coatings from fingernails, jewellery and scrubbing. Rinse any zip or fastener free of grit, and use only the maker’s approved lubricant where required. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, bleach or use solvents.
