This hood offers a generously sized bib to ensure a good seal. Henderson's true anatomical fit features a chin cup to provide proper positioning of the hood on the face.

Comments about Henderson Henderson 7/5mm Gold Core Hood with Bib:
I wear a size small in other brands and models, but this one feels too small in size S.I also thought the Gold Core lining would make it smooth and easy to don, but it is exteremely hard to put on and off (regardless of size:My son whose head is smaller has a hard time putting it on also). Once on, it feels very constricting,and it gets too close to the lips, but this is the type you cannot cut.Too late to return it after trying it ( [...]). I then bought a 6.5 Body Glove which feels perfect after the torture of the Gold Core.

Comments about Henderson Henderson 7/5mm Gold Core Hood with Bib:
I've had this hood for 6 years and had to replace it, due to a small hole under a stitch.
The gold core lining literally sticks to the skin and keeps the water exchange to a minimum, while allowing fast drying.
Great hood, which I would definitely buy again, if Henderson wasn't stopping it's production. Get one while stock lasts!
