Hi,
Was looking at the scubapro hybrid hooded vest, open to suggestions. I want to put this over a normal rash guard if I get a bit cold. I have a large head and wonder if the standard size hoods will fit, any insights out there? Thank you

If you have the misfortune of a disproportionate skull:torso size, you might need separates. E.g I have a 60cm head but a 95cm chest. If the hooded vest is sufficiently thin, it will stretch to accommodate. As the neoprene gets thicker, the ability to stretch grows limited.

Hi @brsnow,

You should be able to get the measurements for your head and the hood to see if it'll fit, otherwise you can get a custom-fit hood.

Here are our measuring instructions if that's helpful.

Kind regards,
