Great for keeping my head and ears out of the wind when swimming on colder days. It also helps to stop the water from splashing into my ears. I must wear earplugs underneath when it gets colder to stop the water from getting into my ears. Very happy with my purchase.

I have so far only used the headband (this morning) as the water isn’t too cold yet. It was fabulous. The wetsuit fits me beautifully (I’ve only tried it in dry land so far) thanks to the advice you gave me when I rang. I was SUPER disappointed though - I rang and discussed my sizing and other details twice on Friday March 24 (I think it was, or the week before?). Anyway, it’s was during the 25% off sale. I asked specifically when the sale ended and explained that I really wanted to buy a whole thermal kit as I struggled last winter in the cold. I remember saying “So I have to buy it all by Sunday or the sale will have ended?”. The lovely & very helpful guy I was talking to told me the sale was ending on Sunday. I then bought a heap of gear Sunday night, at 25% off, only to wake up Monday and see that it was ALL now 50% off! I know it’s just bad timing for me, but I did ask. It would have been nice to have been told I didn’t need to rush my purchase. I did consider returning it all and re buying it at the lower price but I thought that was a bit ridiculous, with shopping back & forth to NZ from Australia. Your gear seems great, a shame my experience was tainted by this.
