7mm Hood – Neoprene — Black / X Small

A seven-millimetre hood with a short collar

The Fourth Element 7 mm Neoprene Hood combines stretch neoprene with a Glideskin interior, micro air vents and a short collar. This listing selects Black in X Small. It is the standard 7 mm Neoprene Hood, so keep the full model name and size together when comparing offers.

Fit the face opening and collar together

The flexible neoprene follows the head, while the short collar forms the neck section. Check the X Small with your mask and exposure suit in place, allowing for head turns and jaw movement. Stretch is useful for fit, but it does not make one hood size appropriate for every wearer.

The Glideskin interior is an additional construction detail beyond the 7 mm thickness. Arrange the hood and suit neck according to the fitting guidance for your equipment, rather than assuming that a short collar creates a completely dry interface with every suit.

Micro vents for trapped air

The hood has micro air vents, giving trapped air a way to escape. That is relevant when checking the hood’s fit and position during use. It is a feature of this named neoprene hood, not a reason to transfer specifications from a differently named cold-water hood in the same brand’s range.

Choose insulation as part of the full setup

The 7 mm designation identifies the listed neoprene thickness and positions the hood for a cold-water exposure setup. It does not establish an individual water-temperature limit or a guaranteed comfortable dive duration. The rest of your suit and exposure accessories still need to suit the conditions and your needs.
