Caps

Hey guys

I would like to buy one of those caps at the shop of surfing-waves.com but my gf told me that all the brands have different sizes, now I don't know if I can buy a cap which isn't to small or to loose. Does anyone know something about these sizes? Does someone maybe know if it only is a real cap made by the real brand only when there is this sticker on it??

Thanks in advance

Hmmm, a lot of the sizing systems for surfing caps, hats, and hoods are small (S), medium (M), Large (L), and, sometimes, Extra large (XL). Most men use M or L.

I have a variety of caps, hats, and hoods for surfing use. My wife and, sometimes, friends use them, too. Some of the caps, hats, and hoods I have are made from neoprene, technical fabric (synthethic), lycra, and other hydrophobic materials. Brand names vary and it is not necessary to buy brands you recognize from surfing-related advertisements. Sadly, a lot of these items are manufactured in one or two specific countries in the Orient. I say sadly becuase it means the manufacturing profits and jobs are not in your country or mine.
