Description

The Women’s Thermocline Long Sleeve Top is designed for water sports enthusiasts seeking versatile thermal protection without the weight, bulk, or limitations of traditional neoprene wetsuits. Whether you’re scuba diving, snorkeling, paddleboarding, surfing, or freediving, this innovative garment delivers reliable warmth and comfort while maintaining excellent freedom of movement.

Constructed with advanced technical fabrics, Thermocline works differently from neoprene. The soft fleece inner layer helps draw moisture away from the skin, while the breathable membrane allows excess moisture to evaporate through the outer nylon surface. This keeps you more comfortable when preparing for a dive, during surface intervals, or while participating in watersports above the waterline.

When submerged, the breathable membrane helps retain a thin layer of water close to the body, reducing the flow of colder water across the skin and improving thermal efficiency. The result is insulation comparable to a 2mm neoprene wetsuit while remaining lightweight, flexible, and neutrally buoyant.

The newly added front zip entry allows for easier dressing and removal while enhancing comfort and ventilation before entering the water. Unlike traditional neoprene garments, Thermocline packs easily for travel without the risk of creasing or damage. The long sleeve top and matching leggings together weigh less than 1kg (2.2 lbs), making them an excellent choice for travelers looking to save luggage space without sacrificing performance.

Designed for convenience as much as performance, the Thermocline fabric dries rapidly between dives and can be machine washed for easy maintenance. Its hypoallergenic, neoprene-free construction also makes it a popular option for individuals who experience sensitivity to traditional wetsuit materials.
