THERMAL FLEX LONG SLEEVE (WOMEN'S)

Every year my swim team does a 2-mile swim across the Rappahannock River on Memorial Day weekend. The river is temperature is still cold so most of my teammates will wear a wet suit. I hate wet suits, refuse to wear one which makes my husband complain nonstop about swimming in the cold temperatures. He carried on so bad last year that I didn't do the swim, I only had a swim shirt (which I would have been okay because others did the same thing and made it across). This year the conditions looked like it would be the same. I saw the sharkskin advertisement on FB and thought this might work! I told my husband that I order a "special wet suit" that had special technology which would not bother me like a traditional wet suit. When received it, I saw that it was still pretty thin but thicker than a swim shirt so I had some doubts that it would actually work. I kept telling my husband it was "a special wet suit". The day of the swim it was cold and cloudy. It had also rained for several days. I thought for sure it would be a cold swim but after doing a couple of strokes I felt the warmth in arms and my upper thighs (where the material was hitting my skin directly). I was shocked on how well it worked. My next purchase will be full length pants. This a great product and well worth the price.

Bought this for my winter diving trip in Indonesia to try out. I layered it up with a 5mm wetsuit. It's kept me warm the whole time underwater.

It's quite a tight fit on the body but I guess that's the whole point of it. Feels much tighter than the normal rashies. But the arms are kept relatively loose and flexible, not affecting my movement at all.

Very happy with it.

I love the warmth in my chest and on my arms. It feels like I’m wearing a second skin.

Unfortunately I get a friction rash on the left side of my neck. I’m now using body glide which has stopped the friction.
