Mares 2nd Skin 1.5 mm Long Sleeve Shorty with Hood for Men
Elevate your thermal protection and extend your time in the water with the Mares 2nd Skin 1.5 mm Shorty, a revolutionary thermal layer designed for the discerning adult diver. Engineered as the ultimate undergarment for men, this long sleeve shorty with an integrated hood acts as a true “second skin,” significantly boosting the warmth of your primary diving wetsuit without compromising on flexibility or comfort. Whether you´re exploring cooler waters or simply want to stay warmer for longer, the 2nd Skin is your essential companion for every dive.
The core of this shorty´s exceptional performance lies in its innovative internal lining. By utilizing advanced heat-reflecting and heat-retaining properties, it actively works to capture your own body heat and reflect it back to you, creating a personal thermal shield against the cold. This intelligent design means you can enjoy enhanced warmth, reduced fatigue, and longer, more comfortable bottom times. The 1.5 mm thickness provides a perfect balance of thermal insulation and unparalleled freedom of movement, allowing you to move naturally and efficiently through the water. The convenient front zipper ensures that donning and doffing the suit is quick and effortless, even when layered under another suit.
Mares has meticulously designed the 2nd Skin to minimize water entry and circulation, a critical factor in maintaining body temperature during a dive. The extremities on the legs are finished with super-smooth Glide Skin, creating an effective seal against your body or the interior of your main wetsuit. This is complemented by an ergonomic neck closure that provides a snug yet comfortable fit, preventing water from flushing in through the collar. The integrated 0.5 mm hood offers crucial thermal protection for your head, one of the body´s areas of greatest heat loss, completing a formidable barrier against the cold. This combination of features results in an extremely water-resistant shorty that keeps you warmer by keeping cold water out. While its primary purpose is for layering in diving, its versatility also makes it an excellent standalone suit for snorkeling or other surface water sports in temperate waters.
