That's a very comprehensive list of Nylon Cagoules you have put together there.
It does leave me shaking my head just how few sellers manage to list items with any detail or clarity though.
For example, this Peter Storm Cagoule: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/352797993909
Lets look at part of the description:-
"rear vent" - No... These style of Peter Storms do not have a rear Vent.
"There are no holes and overall the cagoule is in good order" - What bullshit is that! No... One Metal Eyelet had been ripped out of the hood.
Lots of sellers routinely don't say what the cagoule is made from. It's almost as if Nylon was the new "N" word, never to be uttered in polite society.
Or, confuse Polyamide for Polyester. Polyamide IS Nylon. But It's as if the seller gets as far as reading Poly....... gives up reading, and assumes Polyester.
Polyester Cagoules are shit in my opinion.
And then there's the waterproofing. More astonishment as lots of sellers fail to show and seem to hide what state the waterproofing is in.

A fine example of how it should be done is this fantastic listing:- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143471900603
9 out of 10 for seller "nyloncagoule" for taking the time to take good pictures of all aspects of the item for sale.
-1 point though for not clearly showing the Metal Eyelets ;)
