Our hooded long sleeve rash vests are warm, snug fitting, very comfortable to wear, quick drying and super stretchy for a good snug fit. Designed to keep you really warm wearing them under any wetsuit in the winter. Secondly they are really handy if you want to extend the season of your summer suit. Having a built in peaked hood is a great function. Once you’ve paddled out if you find yourself hot and bothered you only need a quick flick to throw the hood back and cool down. Consequently need not worry about loosing the hood to the sea like you would with a separate hood.
We get great feedback on our hooded long sleeve rash vest / guards. Here is a note from Gary using his at Weston Supermare : ” used my XXL hooded long sleeve rash vest Friday and it worked a treat! Very warm unlike many of my friends 🙂 ”
