The Sharkskin Chill-Proof Shortants for Men are designed for water sports enthusiasts who demand maximum maneuverability without sacrificing comfort and warmth. These 100% chill proof pants are equally suitable teamed up with a top, under a wetsuit or drysuit, or by themselves for kayaking. They make donning of wetsuits easier with their smooth slick surface.
Equivalent warmth of 2.5 to 3 mm of neoprene with no additional buoyancy.
The Sharkskin Chillproof Short Pants for Men are cut with a high rear waist for comfort and warmth, provide protection from chaffing when dry and peace of mind knowing that if you do get wet you will still be warm. Chillproof pants can be worn in combination with all other Sharkskin garments. The Chillproof Shortpaints have a drawstring waist closure with adjustable barrel lock fastener.
Great as a standalone garment and also suitable for under a wetsuit or drysuit.
Sharkskin Chillproof is an aquatic specific, windproof 3-layer composite material that has been developed for water sports athletes. The comfortable 'micro fleece' layer is next to the skin and ‘wicks’ moisture and sweat away from the body to help keep you dry. The second middle 'technical' layer is 100% windproof yet breathes to regulate body temperature while stopping windchill. The third outer layer is a nylon/lycra blend for abrasion resistance and 4-way stretch. It is also UV resistant for sun protection and has a durable water repellent finish (DWR) to provide a protective shell that ‘sheds’ water. Sharkskin Chillproof is neutrally buoyant, anti-microbial, odour resistant, itch resistant and machine washable.
Performance Guarantee
Authentic Sharkskin garments come with a 12-month guarantee on workmanship. Excludes fading and degeneration as a result of excessive exposure to chlorine or sunlight. We guarantee Sharkskin will perform as advertised.
