The Sharkskin Chill-Proof Hood by Bare is design provide the best insulation and protection for cold dives and water sport activities. It can even be worn under a conventional neoprene hood as layering for extra warmth. The Chill-Proof Hoods slick fabric also makes donning the stiffest neoprene hood easy and prevents hair from being pulled. When worn as a standalone the hood protects against chaffing from mask straps, keeps your head and ears toasty warm, and is flexible enough to slide off if required, while remaining comfortable.

It is also UV resistant for sun protection and has a durable water repellent finish (DWR) to provide a protective shell that ½sheds' water.
