Sharkskin Chillproof Long Sleeve Top (Women's)

Plenty of snorkelers and divers want more warmth than a rash guard offers without zipping into a full wetsuit, and the women's Sharkskin Chillproof Long Sleeve Top fits right into that gap. In warmer water it works as your only top. When the water is colder, it slides under a long sleeve wetsuit to add warmth and cut the wind between dives.

What Chillproof Brings to a Dive Day

Sharkskin describes Chillproof as a windchill proof, three-layer composite with the thermal properties of a 2.5 to 3mm neoprene wetsuit. It stretches in all four directions, and its hollow fiber fleece lining sits soft against your skin while pulling moisture away.

• Long sleeves with UPF50+ sun protection for hours on the boat
• Thumb tabs that hold the sleeves in place as a wetsuit goes on
• A neoprene collar that creates a flexible seal at the neck
• Neutral buoyancy, so your weighting stays the same

Women's Fit and Sizing

This top is cut for women and runs from US0 to US16 in Black or Black / Blue. Its stretch fabric lies close to the body for layering, and the itch and odor resistant lining makes it comfortable to wear for long stretches.
