Seventhwave
2mm Chill Hood
Not every winter session needs your heaviest hood. If a full 3mm feels like overkill, the Seventhwave 2mm Chill Hood delivers real winter warmth with a lighter, more comfortable fit — the kind of hood you'll actually want to reach for.
Built from our premium Titanium-lined superstretch neoprene — the same ultra-soft material used across our full wetsuit range — this hood sits comfortably against your skin without the bulk. A raw-cut face seal delivers a snug, irritation-free fit, and the fully flatlocked construction eliminates pressure points so you can focus on your surf, not your gear. When you're sitting out the back and the sun comes out, simply pull it down. Easy.
Why surfers choose the Chill Hood:
- 2mm Titanium-lined superstretch neoprene — warm, lightweight and incredibly soft against skin
- Flatlocked seams throughout — no chafing, no pressure, no bulk
- Raw-edge face opening — maximum comfort where it matters most
- Pull-down design — versatile enough to wear up or down as conditions change
- Warm enough for winter, ideal for Spring and Autumn — especially on days when you're not punching through heavy whitewash
Made with the planet in mind. The Chill Hood is crafted from neoprene offcuts generated during our Christchurch workshop production, helping us reduce waste without compromising quality. Each hood is predominantly black but may feature panels in other colours depending on available offcuts — making every one subtly unique.
