2mm Shark Bite-Resistant Hood

TOTAL COVERAGE, ZERO COMPROMISE: THE SHARK STOP 2MM HOOD The Shark Stop 2mm Hood extends the same bite-resistant technology used across our wetsuit range up over the head, so the most exposed part of your body in the water isn't the one part left unprotected. Built as a standalone piece, it layers with any wetsuit, in or out of the Shark Stop range, adding a critical layer of coverage without forcing you into a new suit. Why the 2mm Hood is your ultimate head protection: Military-Grade Protection: Crafted with UHMWPE fiber, the same material found in aerospace and ballistics, positioned exactly where you need it most. Scientifically Proven: Independently tested by Flinders University on Great Whites and Tiger Sharks, our material is proven to reduce critical injuries by 100%. Built for Comfort: Neoprene panels are placed throughout for a natural fit and flexible feel, so the protection never comes at the cost of comfort or mobility. Standalone Design: Wear it with any wetsuit for an easy, add-on layer of warmth and protection, no need to replace your existing suit. Backed by Science We believe safety should be based on data, not guesswork. Our technology is backed by rigorous, peer-reviewed research: "Our findings suggest that lightweight bite-resistant materials integrated into traditional wetsuit designs offer a promising [...] approach to reduce injuries, haemorrhaging and tissue loss from the species responsible for most fatal bites globally." — Clarke et al (2025) Is the 2mm Hood right for you? Divers & Surfers who want extra head warmth on cooler sessions without committing to a full thicker suit. Spearfishers & Freedivers who spend extended time at depth and want added head protection in higher bite-risk zones. Ocean Professionals who need a reliable, rugged layer for daily use in the water. Anyone sensitive to cold looking for extra warmth around the head and neck on longer sessions. Sizing This hood is available in one size, designed to fit most head sizes comfortably thanks to its flexible neoprene construction.
