Neoprene caps are among the most important pieces of gear due to their warming properties. Because: our water is basically always cold. And even just a few seconds underwater can quickly lead to a so-called "brain freeze". It's not dangerous, but definitely unpleasant — and can be successfully combated by wearing an Immersion Research Thermo Cap. The cut extends over the ears, so on helmets without ear pads, your ears are protected from cold gusts of wind. The cap is made from soft, 1 mm thick neoprene — so it really does keep you reliably warm. The seams are flat, so nothing can pinch or rub.
Also not to be underestimated is the style factor of a neoprene cap. You'd be surprised how many stories have started with a neoprene cap. Yet we've never heard of a story that ended because of one. Promise! Your little hearing organs will thank you warmly!
For anyone looking for an extra dose of warmth, we recommend the
Immersion Research Hot Head Balaclava!
