Product Information
The Scubapro Novascotia/Everdry Diving Hood 6/4mm is a cold-water neoprene dive hood built to complement Scubapro Everdry 4 neoprene drysuits and the NovaScotia semi-dry suit, attaching with a double snap button system. It is made from 6/4mm X-Foam limestone-based neoprene with a high-stretch 100% Everflex Nylon exterior and a quick-dry Diamond Span fleece interior, and includes a face seal and an air vent system.
Who it is for
This hood suits cold-water scuba divers and technical divers who already dive a Scubapro NovaScotia semi-dry or an Everdry 4 neoprene drysuit and want a hood that snaps directly to the suit instead of sitting loose under the neck seal. Built from 6/4mm neoprene, it is aimed at divers who need serious head insulation for cold-water exploration.
Key details
- Thickness: 6/4mm X-Foam neoprene, limestone-based, PAH and REACH compliant.
- Exterior: 100% high-stretch Everflex Nylon for easier donning.
- Interior: quick-dry Diamond Span fleece/plush lining.
- Face seal: cuts down heat loss caused by water transfer around the face.
- Air vent system to release trapped air.
- Full length: 11.81 inches. Product weight: 0.39 lb.
- Construction: solvent-free glue assembly using a green manufacturing process.
Compatibility and sizing
The double snap button system attaches the hood to NovaScotia semi-dry suits and Everdry 4 neoprene drysuits. It is offered in five unisex sizes: XS/S, S/M, M/L, L/XL and XL/2XL, so you can match it to your head and neck rather than to the suit size alone. A hood should seal at the face and neck and lie flat under the mask strap without pulling it out of position.

Frequently Asked Questions
What thickness of dive boots, gloves, or hood should I choose?
As a general rule, thicker neoprene insulates more, so colder water pushes you toward thicker accessories, but fit, dive length, and personal cold tolerance matter as much as the millimeter number. Divers commonly lose a great deal of heat through the head, so a hood is often the highest-value warmth upgrade for the money. Remember that every added piece of neoprene also adds buoyancy you will need to account for.
How should dive boots fit?
Boots should fit like a snug athletic shoe, with no heel lift and no crushed toes; a little water inside is normal, a sloshing pocket is not. Try them on with the socks you would actually dive, and remember your fin foot pocket has to accommodate the boot. Hard-sole boots protect on rocky shore entries, while soft-sole boots are lighter and pack smaller for boat and travel diving.
How should dive gloves fit?
Gloves should be snug across the palm with fingertips reaching the ends without bunching, since trapped air and loose fingertips destroy dexterity. Thicker gloves are warmer but make buckles, clips, and inflator buttons harder to operate, so choose the thinnest glove that keeps you comfortable in your conditions. Try working a clip or buckle while wearing them before you commit.
How should a dive hood fit?
A hood should seal around the face and neck without restricting your throat or jaw, and lie flat on your head without pulling the mask strap out of position. A loose hood flushes cold water continuously, while an overly tight one is distracting and uncomfortable. Many hoods have a vent to release air trapped during descent, so check yours and burp out any trapped air before you go down.
Why does new neoprene feel so tight?
New neoprene compresses and relaxes with use, so a boot, glove, or hood that feels firm out of the packaging usually settles slightly after a few dives. It should still be snug afterward rather than loose, because neoprene that stretches into a loose fit was probably oversized to begin with. Buy for a snug fit when new, but never for a fit that restricts circulation or breathing.
Do I need to change my weighting when I add a hood, gloves, and boots?
Yes, because every piece of neoprene you add is buoyancy, and a hood, boots, and thick gloves together can shift your weighting noticeably. Do a proper buoyancy check any time you change your exposure protection rather than assuming your usual weight still works. The weight-check procedure is covered in your training, and a dive professional can help you re-do it.
How do I care for dive boots, gloves, and hoods?
Rinse them inside and out in fresh water after every dive day, since they hold sweat and salt more than any other gear, and dry them fully inside-out before packing. Dry them out of direct sunlight and never on a heater, because heat hardens neoprene and weakens glued seams. Store them dry and unfolded, as damp neoprene sealed in a bag is how gear picks up a permanent smell.
Which Scubapro suits does this hood attach to?
It attaches to the Scubapro NovaScotia semi-dry suit and the Everdry 4 neoprene drysuit using a double snap button system, which is why it is sold as the Novascotia/Everdry hood. The snaps are the attachment method, so suits without matching snap buttons will not accept it. If you are unsure which suit generation you own, contact us and we will confirm before you order.
What sizes does the Scubapro Novascotia/Everdry 6/4mm hood come in?
Scubapro publishes five unisex sizes: XS/S, S/M, M/L, L/XL and XL/2XL. Each covers two adjacent sizes, so choose based on your head and neck rather than your suit size alone. The hood should seal at the face and neck, lie flat on the head and not pull your mask strap out of position. The full length of the hood is 11.81 inches.
Does the hood have a vent for trapped air?
Yes. An air vent system is included on this hood. The hood also uses a face seal that cuts down on water transfer around the face, which is one of the main sources of heat loss in a hood. The hood pairs a face seal with an air vent system for cold-water diving.
What is X-Foam neoprene and is it eco-friendly?
X-Foam is a limestone-based neoprene used by Scubapro instead of petroleum-based foam, and it complies with PAH and REACH regulations. This hood is built from 6/4mm X-Foam and assembled with solvent-free glue as part of Scubapro's green manufacturing process. The outside is 100% high-stretch Everflex Nylon and the inside is quick-dry Diamond Span fleece.
