Love my Hachi hood. I love the brim, it's very useful when the sun is gleaming and obstructing your view. The open ear is nice because I can hear everything, but I'm still warm. The neoprene is silky smooth. This hood goes on easily, and fits tight. Premium quality as all the products are, it is so well made. The stitching is solid. I can see this lasting a long time. I will never buy my surf stuff from any other company. I'm sold out for matuse. Can't wait to get my hands on the scipio 2.0 MIT chamber zero suit.
This is the most comfortable non connected hood ever! It’s not too tight, not too loose. Easy on and off and can be slid off and worn around my neck if I want (like when riding bike home after a surf) it doesn’t pinch my ears … all around I recommend !
i mainly bought this hood to protect my ears from the cold water, but it’s been a game changer … it’s also kept me warm throughout winter and spring in sydney australia … plus on those flat winter days i’m able do some ocean swimming without an ice cream headache :)
Perfect squid lid for those clear and colder SoCal dawn sessions.
