Without a neoprene hood in Denmark, most open-water swimmers will recognize that a “brain freeze” is almost unavoidable – and it can be dangerous. Our most popular neoprene hood and top model is this Flex hood.

This is Watery’s neoprene hood, which combines high warmth with excellent hydrodynamics (creating minimal water resistance) through the water.

In addition to brain freeze, the experience with many other neoprene hoods is that they feel tight and inflexible to wear, especially when only one size is available. This is often because they are designed to fit many different head shapes and sizes.

With the Flex hood, you avoid this issue, as it comes in five different sizes, giving you a neoprene hood that fits as comfortably as possible.

Additionally, this model has the following unique features:

  • Made from premium Yamamoto neoprene, known for its stretch and heat-retention qualities.
  • Crafted with a hydrodynamic design that reduces water resistance.

Nice soft quality

Smaller in size than expected - needs a little more coverage around the ears - but nice and soft/flex
