More About K01 3mm Dive Hood

Handcrafted Performance Without Compromise

The K01 3mm Dive Hood is designed for divers who expect more than basic thermal protection. Every hood is individually handcrafted in Italy using exclusive Japanese neoprene developed specifically for K01, creating a combination of comfort, flexibility and durability that stands apart from mass-produced alternatives.

The anatomical design naturally follows the contours of the head, reducing pressure points while maintaining an effective seal. The result is a hood that remains comfortable throughout long recreational and technical dives without feeling restrictive.

Premium Materials That Make a Difference

K01's exclusive Japanese neoprene is chosen for its exceptional stretch and resilience. Combined with the smooth slick-skin interior, it allows the hood to slide on easily while reducing water movement around the head, helping maintain warmth throughout the dive.

The high-quality neoprene finish also eliminates the need for traditional edge hemming, allowing water to drain efficiently from the outer surface for faster drying after use.

Designed for Demanding Divers

Whether you're exploring temperate reefs, travelling to warm-water destinations or building a premium exposure protection system, the K01 3mm Hood delivers outstanding comfort with every dive. It is equally suited to experienced recreational divers and technical divers who appreciate handcrafted equipment built without compromise.

As an authorised K01 dealer, we can also help with sizing advice and product recommendations to ensure the best fit for your diving conditions.

Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after every dive, dry naturally away from direct sunlight and store flat or loosely folded. Proper care will help preserve the neoprene's flexibility and extend the life of your hood.
