Sharkskin EveryWear Chillproof Hooded Jacket (Women's)

The Sharkskin EveryWear Chillproof Hooded Jacket (Women's) is a full zip hoodie made from Chillproof, the same windproof thermal fabric Sharkskin uses in its dive layers. It is the piece you reach for when you climb back on the dive boat dripping and the breeze hits. Paddlers and jet skiers will find it just as handy after a session.

Why Chillproof Makes Sense After the Water

Most people warm up slowly after a dive because wind pulls heat off wet skin. Chillproof's membrane stops that windchill but still breathes, so you do not end up clammy once you warm back up. The inside is a hollow fiber fleece that feels soft and wicks moisture, and the outside has a water repellent finish. Sharkskin puts its warmth on par with a 2.5 to 3mm neoprene wetsuit.

The design leans into keeping your head and hands warm, since Sharkskin points out that over 25% of body heat escapes through the head and extremities. You get a generous hood and deep front pockets that zip shut. The latest version has a sleeker look than the original Chillproof jacket.

Finding Your Women's Size

This version is cut for women and sized from US0 to US16 (US0, US2, US4, US6, US8, US10, US12, US14 and US16). The fabric stretches four ways, which helps it layer over a swimsuit or rash guard without bunching. The front zip opens fully, making it simple to shrug off when the sun comes out.
