i've heard less complaints from fiber images...and i've seen the hood in person, it's good quality and has a nice weave.

The weave has nothing to do with the overall quality though, they can buy whatever weave fabric they want..

i have a seibon cf hood, rolled edges and fits perfect, i love mine and would def. buy another seibon.

just make sure you keep it waxed, if not the sun will fade it really quick, my fiber images carbon fiber hood faded really bad, thats why i got a new one.
