Sharkskin High Performance Mens Long Sleeve Top

Total performance in the waters

The Sharkskin High Performance Mens Long Sleeve Top uses a combination of the world’s most advanced fabric technologies in its unique design. This new top is a step up from the standard performance wear top and has been designed to help you to get more out of your training, competition and recreation sessions.

3-layer Chillproof and Windproof Fabric
The entire front and lower back use 3-layer chill and windchill-proof fabric to keep your core and kidney area warm. The front also has a ½ zip for 100% warmth when you zip up and allows you to unzip and vent when needed for body temperature regulation.

Hydrophobic Nanotech Compression Fabric
The shoulders and arms are covered with a new Hydrophobic Nanotech Compression fabric. This new compression fabric has a heavier weight to provide more insulation and better compression properties to help speed recovery, yet is extremely flexible to provide total freedom of movement across the back and shoulders for active watersports. The compression fabric uses Hydro-Lock technology to repel water and to minimise water absorption even when submerged for a truly hydrophobic finish.

The fabric also uses the same Far Infrared (FIR) Nano-technology from the Sharkskin R-Series Compression range. By embedding titanium into the fabric three performance enhancements are achieved – 1. a further boost in warmth from your body’s reflected heat, 2. a boost in the health, performance and recovery benefits attributed to the Far Infrared radiation created, 3. a permanent anti-microbial effect.

Posture Right Kinaesthetic Panels
The wrist has a welded-band cuff to keep it super secure and to stop it from riding up when paddling or swimming. The shoulder area uses “posture right” kinaesthetic panels that help with musculoskeletal form for all active watersports where you are using shoulder and arm rotation.

The Sharkskin High Performance Mens Long Sleeve Top’s long sleeve design offers 100% UV50+ sun protection. This high-performance wear is specifically designed to help you excel in active watersports like paddling, ocean swimming, sailing, windsurf, kitesurf and all foiling watersports, etc. Also great for static watersports like scuba diving and snorkelling in warmer water, jet skiing, etc, where core warmth is important and you need a compression fabric with a bit more warmth to protect from the air and sea temperature whilst retaining compression for maximum performance.
