This is really comfortable and there's no rubbing while I swim. I paired it with the trunks. A perfect set for ocean swimming.

Sharkskin Rapid Dry Long Sleeve with Collar Blue UPF50+ 5XL
The fit is just right not tight and not loose. I am 6, 5" with a 36" insleve. Very comfortable under a BCD and makes doning and taking off easy. Light Wright with a good feel to the shirt even wet.

This is my second one and especially like them after being underwater and then in the wind.

Sharkskin T2 Chillproof Mens Suit Chest Zip Titanium
-I purchased this product for travel diving.

-I used it in Thailand Jan 2025 with water temperatures around 26 to 28 degrees C.

-I dived 4 dives every day with the last dive as a night dive. (16 dives in a row)

-This product kept me very warm and I was hugely impressed with its performance.

-Bonus with the product is it weighs a fraction of the weight of a wetsuit at approx 900 grams saving on luggage weight.

-Huge bonus is it is negative buoyant so I only had to use 1.6kgs of weight rather than the typical 6kgs I would normally use. (My body weight is 75kgs)

-My air consumption was better with a SAC rate of approx 0.9 but this will get better the more I get used to the negative buoyancy and shallower breathing required.

-It made it easier as a photographer to hover over the reef to take photos and also be steady enough for macro photography.

-It also dried very quickly ready for travel again.

-I would highly recommend this product to divers in warm water.

Sharkskin T2 Chillproof Womens Undergarment Full Zip Titanium
I had a lot of trouble finding a wetsuit to fit me so I tried a sharkskin. I was able to order an 18 and 16 on the advise of the shop staff so I could try on both. Didn't need to try the 18. I was astounded at how easy it was to get in and out of it; with a swimsuit underneath, it was easy to slide in and out, despite being a tight fit.

Definitely go with a size down if your weight and measurements isn't in the range of your usual size (and definitely measure yourself according to the chart) as you will want the top half to be hugging your chest for core warmth. I also bought a pair of the long sleeve childproof swimmers which still fit underneath with the stretchy fabric for winter dives.

My only design flaw is the neck is very tight if you use the Velcro strap. I solved this by getting a Velcro strap for cord organising and extended it out to make it more comfortable.

Thank you sharkskin!!

Sharkskin Rapid Dry Long Sleeve with Collar Blue UPF50+ 4XL
We arrived for a week-long dive trip on Saturday, dove Sunday and Monday, but by that point people thought I was having a heart attack because I was grey and in a lot of pain. Long story short: emergency appendectomy at midnight. I wore my shark skin shirt as a windbreaker as I lay on the hotel patio, recovering with a lovely view of the ocean. I also wore it between dives on the two days we went diving. My take-away on the shirts: excellent windbreakers! I was comfortable, not too warm, not clammy or icky-sweaty. I normally wear medium in my shirts, but I bought two smalls and an XS per the size chart recommendations, (thinking I'd wear it under the wet suit for night dives - which I missed this trip). I'm 5'-4, 130 lbs, 32D, 33x29x39. The shirt wasn't too tight or unflattering in how it clung. Even the XS. So far, I'm very happy. The fabric doesn't have that super-silky feel. There's a tiny texture that feels like it might be scratchy, but it's very soft against the skin. The overspray on the boat beads up and rolls off instead of slowly saturating and making me cold, so that was my first "Yay!" moment. the second "yay" was wearing it over my sleeveless top to dinner because the temps drop at sunset, and it kept my temperature very comfortable. Just for the record, I can't stand polyester and hate that 'plastic' feel against my skin. For me to praise anything that's not organic fabric is HUGE. And I'm impressed with these shirts. I'll put up a review once I actually get it wet! My apologies for the incompleteness of my current review.

I've only used it a few times, but it fits well and works great for my outdoor water sports. I paddle SUPs and kayaks on flat water and surf on a SUP. It holds it's shape wet or dry.

Great sun protection while on the water on the warmer months in Sydney, the collar is an amazing design addition. Would probably also use while sailing.
