Sharkskin Chillproof Watersports Gloves

Sharkskin Chillproof Watersports Gloves

The Sharkskin Chillproof watersports gloves are designed to provide full-finger protection for divers, paddlers, and all water sports enthusiasts who need to keep their hands warm and protected from the elements. These gloves feature a single layer amara palm that enhances the feel and grip of the wearer, making them ideal for handling ropes, kayak fishing, surfski paddling and other activities where extra dexterity is required.

The Sharkskin Chillproof watersports glovesare made from Chillproof material which is a specially designed, windchill proof, 3-layer composite material that offers the thermal properties of a 2.5 to 3mm neoprene wetsuit, without many of the drawbacks of traditional wetsuits. The Chillproof material is used on the ‘back of the hand’ where you lose most heat, making it perfect for keeping your hands warm and dry while in, on, or under the water.

Chillproof gloves can be worn under a wetsuit for extra warmth and enhanced wind protection, or on their own as the perfect watersports thermal wear. They can also be layered with other Sharkskin garments for extra warmth and insulation. This makes them ideal for a range of water-based activities, including scuba diving, snorkelling, jet skiing, paddle sports, board sports, wind sports, sailing, and many other activities.

The Chillproof watersports gloves are packed with features that make them an essential piece of equipment for anyone who spends time in or around the water. They have a durable nylon/spandex outer layer that provides superior abrasion resistance, a 100% windproof and 10K+ breathable membrane that stops windchill while regulating body temperature, and a hollow fibre ‘next to skin’ fleece that offers warmth, comfort, and superior moisture-wicking properties.

The gloves also feature a durable water repellent (DWR) finish that provides a protective shell that ‘sheds’ water, 4-way stretch technology that ensures they are non-restrictive, allowing a full range of movement and easy to get on and off. They have non-chaffing, itch, and odour resistant properties, meaning that they can be worn for extended periods of time. Additionally, the gloves have durable seam thread that resists deterioration in saltwater, so they are built to last.

These gloves are neutrally buoyant, so there is no need to add extra weight when diving, and they offer SPF50+ for sun protection, helping to avoid skin damage and melanoma. Sharkskin is committed to sustainability and eco-friendliness, and the Chillproof gloves are made from biodegradable and compostable materials. Finally, Sharkskin garments come with a 2-year guarantee on workmanship, and they are designed to last, so you can be sure that you are getting a quality product that will perform as advertised.
