Sharkskin Titanium 2 Tactical Shorts (Women's)

Built for divers who need gear within reach, the women's Sharkskin Titanium 2 Tactical Shorts carry real equipment on your thighs and keep your hands free. Sharkskin designed them with technical divers and rescue crews in mind, and they work just as well for commercial operators and committed recreational divers. Off the dive boat, they are just as practical on a paddleboard or a jet ski.

How the Pockets and Straps Work

One side has a large bellows cargo pocket. It expands to hold bulky items, so a spare mask or a reel doesn't have to ride on your harness. The other side has a zippered pocket that closes securely for smaller things you want to keep track of.

Weight in a pocket tends to drag shorts down, and the side cinch straps solve that by locking the waist tight so nothing slips or sags. The body is Sharkskin T2, which keeps you warm and lets the fabric breathe, and Sharkskin also cites recovery benefits. The rear panel is Sharkflex for added durability.

Women's Sizing and Colors

Women's sizes run from US0 to US16. Pick your usual size for a comfortable fit at the hips and waist, then use the cinch straps to tighten the shorts once your pockets are loaded. You can choose between Charcoal and Reef Green.
