SHARKSKIN Is the ideal product for a wide range of power watersport’s. The breathable and 100% windproof properties of Chillproof fabric make this the ideal fabric with high speed, adrenaline based power watersport’s activities.
Sharkskin technical watersports protection brand re-invented the wetsuit category with its Chillproof fabric and the rash-guard category with its Rapid Dry fabric to create a truly amphibious range that will keep you warm and protected in and out of the water.
Sharkskin Chillproof garments have revolutionised the power watersports industry with a comfortable and flexible fleece fabric that is breathable, windchill proof, and dries quickly when being worn. This unique 3-layer fabric has been developed and then further refined and improved to be much warmer and much more comfortable than a wetsuit or other lycra or cotton garments – especially on powered watercraft where you are moving and getting wet and splashed and therefore openly exposed to the effects of windchill.
Sharkskin can be worn by itself as a stand-alone garment, or underneath a wetsuit or underneath ‘dry tops’ and ‘dry pants’ to add extra warmth and protection from windchill, or “layered” with other Sharkskin garments to give you the ability to increase or decrease warmth levels in changing environments.
Sharkskin also offers a range of Performance Wear products that use a combination of Chillproof fabric, super-stretch neoprene, and Liquid Titanium Compression to create a lightweight more flexible range suitable for warmer air and water temperatures.
Sharkskin Rapid Dry re-invented the traditional rash guard to provide a longer lasting garment with more insulation than Lycra. It’s the ideal product for all power watersports in Summer or layered with Chillproof garments in Winter. The fabric has a water repellent treatment (WRT) and its loose stylish fit looks good in, on or around the water.
Sharkskin handcrafts 95% of its highly innovative range in its own factory in Newcastle, Australia in direct response to the needs of the end user. At Sharkskin we call that “responsive innovation”.
