This hood uses cheap materials which I’m not a fan of. Was expecting way more from Problue brand, not living up to expectations.

I purchased the Problue HK-01A Standard Hood in size M, and I must say it’s quite cozy! The glued and blind stitched construction feels durable and well-made. The additional Neoskin in the face/bib seal area adds a nice touch of comfort. My only concern is that it might run a bit small, but that’s easily fixable.
