The Sharkskin Ladies Chillproof Vest with Hood is designed to maximise warmth and protection in colder water conditions by focusing on the areas where heat loss is greatest. Ideal for layering under a wetsuit, this vest delivers superior thermal insulation to the core while keeping the head and neck protected during extended dives.
Constructed from Sharkskin’s proven Chillproof 3-layer fabric, it combines a durable outer shell, a windproof and breathable membrane, and a soft fleece inner lining to retain body heat while managing moisture. The integrated hood provides essential thermal protection for the head and ears, significantly reducing heat loss and improving overall comfort in cold water.
Unlike traditional neoprene hoods, the Chillproof hood offers improved flexibility, better hearing and a reduced risk of ear squeeze. It can also be comfortably worn down around the neck between dives, making it practical for use on boats or shore. Designed for performance and versatility, this vest is an essential addition for divers looking to extend their time in the water.
