The Sharkskin Chillproof Hooded Vest – Men’s is designed to maximise warmth and protection in cold-water conditions by targeting key areas of heat loss. Ideal for layering under a wetsuit, this vest delivers superior core insulation while keeping the head, neck and ears protected during extended dives.
Constructed from Sharkskin’s advanced Chillproof 3-layer fabric, it combines a durable outer layer, a windproof and breathable membrane, and a soft fleece inner lining to retain heat and manage moisture effectively. The integrated hood significantly reduces heat loss, helping you stay warmer for longer in challenging conditions.
Unlike traditional neoprene hoods, the Chillproof hood offers improved flexibility, better hearing and a reduced risk of ear squeeze. It also provides protection from mask strap chafing and can be comfortably worn down around the neck between dives for added convenience on the boat or shore.
