Sharkskin Chillproof Long Sleeve Full Zip (Women's)

Getting a snug thermal top on and off with cold hands is a chore, and the women's Sharkskin Chillproof Long Sleeve Full Zip makes it easy with a front zipper that opens all the way, even when the top is wet. Divers wear it as an undergarment beneath a wetsuit or drysuit, and snorkelers, paddlers and sailors wear it alone as a thermal layer.

What Makes Chillproof Different from Neoprene

Chillproof is a windproof, water-resistant fabric made in three layers, and Sharkskin rates its warmth at the level of a 2.5 to 3mm neoprene wetsuit. You get that warmth without neoprene's bulk or buoyancy, so it layers under a wetsuit without adding lead to your belt.

• Fleece interior made from hollow fibers that hold warmth and wick moisture
• Outer Nylon/Spandex blend that resists abrasion
• Breathable windproof membrane that lets excess heat escape
• Odor and itch resistance for long wear
• UPF 50+ sun protection

It keeps you cool when it is hot and warm when it is cold, so it is comfortable on a sunny deck with the zipper open.

Women's Fit and Colors

Sized US0 to US16 on a women's pattern, the full zip comes in all Black or in Black Blue with blue side panels. Thumb loops anchor the sleeves while you pull on a wetsuit, and the high collar adds warmth at the neck.
