Product Information

The DiveCatalog Neoprene Mask Strap Cover is a padded neoprene sleeve that slips over a standard silicone mask strap to add comfort and keep the strap from grabbing hair. It installs by hand with no tools or mask modification, and it is offered in six colors: Black, Yellow, Red, Pink, Orange and Blue.

Who it is for

This cover suits scuba divers, snorkelers and freedivers, and it is especially useful for anyone with long or thick hair who finds that a bare silicone strap pulls when the mask is donned or removed. It also helps on longer dives, where strap pressure concentrated at the back of the head creates hot spots. On a crowded boat or in a rental pile, a bright color makes one mask easy to spot at a glance.

Key details

  • Material: neoprene sleeve.
  • Function: creates a smooth surface that slides over the head instead of catching hair.
  • Comfort: spreads strap pressure across a wider area at the back of the head.
  • Installation: slides on over either side of the strap, no tools and no modification to the mask.
  • Colors: Black, Yellow, Red, Pink, Orange and Blue.

Compatibility and sizing

The sleeve is made to fit standard silicone mask straps. The sleeve slides over the existing strap rather than replacing it, and needs no tools or modification to the mask. If you are unsure whether your strap qualifies as standard, send us a photo and we will check it for you.

DiveCatalog.com is an authorized DiveCatalog dealer and a real dive shop in Irvine, California, serving divers since 2003. Call 888-701-4017 or start a chat if you have a question about fit on your mask or which color to choose.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a mask strap cover prevent mask squeeze?

No. A neoprene strap cover addresses comfort and hair snagging, not mask squeeze. Mask squeeze is caused by the air space inside the mask compressing on descent, and it is prevented by exhaling gently through your nose into the mask as you go down, and by descending slowly enough to keep up with equalizing. The cover does not change how the mask seals or equalizes.

Will this cover fit my mask strap?

It is made to fit standard silicone mask straps. The sleeve slides over the existing strap rather than replacing it, and needs no tools or modification to the mask. If your mask has an unusual strap, call 888-701-4017 and we will help you confirm fit.

How do I install the strap cover?

Slide the neoprene sleeve onto the mask strap from either side and work it along until it sits centered at the back of the head. No tools are needed and nothing on the mask has to be cut, drilled or replaced.

What colors are available?

The DiveCatalog Neoprene Mask Strap Cover comes in six colors: Black, Yellow, Red, Pink, Orange and Blue. Divers often pick a bright color such as Yellow, Orange or Pink so their mask is easy to identify among similar black masks on a busy boat or in a shared gear bin, while Black keeps a low-profile look.

Review summary

4.9 20 ratings across the web

Reviewers agree this neoprene cover makes a standard mask strap noticeably more comfortable: it slides over the silicone strap and stops it from tangling or pulling hair when you put the mask on or take it off. Several describe the neoprene as soft and quick drying, with solid stitching, and note the mask slides on and off smoothly even with wet hands or gloves. It slides on by hand with no tools. Good for divers with longer hair or anyone who finds a bare silicone strap uncomfortable.

Easy to install by hand, no tools needed

Neoprene mask strap cover that prevents hair tangling and enhances comfort. Customers said it's "an absolute game-changer," with soft, quick-drying material and easy Velcro installation. Praised for preventing strap slippage and smooth operation with wet hands. One customer noted it's overpriced, though most received it as a freebie.

Nice quality

I prefer the slap straps that have velcro straps where it replaces your mask straps, this one slides over the mask strap, which I don't prefer, but it's a nice quality and vibrant colors

Essential comfort upgrade for any mask

This DiveCatalog neoprene cover is an absolute game-changer for comfort. It slides right over the standard silicone strap and completely stops it from tangling or pulling hair when donning and doffing your mask. The neoprene is high quality, the stitching feels solid, and it makes sliding the mask on and off incredibly smooth, even with wet hands or gloves

This is very easy to put on because it’s Velcro. You don’t have to disconnect anything!
