    Pinnacle 3mm Beanie:
    I am 6'2" tall. The 2XL fit me fine. Not too loose; not too tight. Though I have not seen an XL-size; from the fit of this one; I believe I could have worn an XL as well. I wear a 2XL in a cotton sunhat. I like a hat as loose as possible that stays on and fits. I use this for swimming laps in a swimming-pool in cold weather; maybe 2-days a year. The cap and chin-strap were comfortable and easy to put on. The cap is flexible and soft. The cap covered my ears and forehead. The cap did not fill with water or bulge at the top while swimming. I tested it in spring-time in 65-degree water. The cap kept my head warm for that temperature. I did not have access to lower temperature water. My impression is this cap would keep my head warm down to 60-degrees. At lower temperature it would make it less cold. I have tried a 7mm hood and that was thick, stiff, and overkill for my purpose. For water colder than 60-degrees; I would try wearing two 3mm caps; or a 3mm-hood over this, before trying anything thicker. The cap has a thin feeling; very similar to my 1.5mm neoprene swim-shirt. I have not seen or tried anything 5mm thick.

    This beanie hood is OK. It would serve it's purpose for warm water diving. The fit is a little loose (if I went to the next smaller size I'd get a brain squeeze) so exhaled air from the regulator gets caught in the hood and starts pulling on the chin strap.

      I don't think so! Not restricting like other hoods. Perfectly holds my horse mane back. I dont get cold easily but it keeps me toasty! The fit was perfect for my big head.[...]

          Works perfectly for warmer waters to maintain warmth and protection. Unlike a hoodie, this beanie is almost unnoticeable underwater...

            Very good construction, good fit. Needed it mostly for warmer water and night dives where a beanie would make the diving more comfortable. Some folks would wear this all the time, even in tropic waters.
