Stay warm for longer thanks to our thermal accessories! Each temperature range has its own outfit...When we are in the water, we lose more than half of our body heat through our extremities (feet, hands, head). Consequently, here are the recommended accessories: - in warm water and temperate water (>17oC) => neoprene low booties. - in cold water (12 - 17oC): High booties (boots) and gloves. - in very cold water (7 - 12oC): High booties (boots), gloves, hood and hooded top.
MaterialsThe built-in hood of the Tribord 100 is made of 100% neoprene for better thermal insulation.The neoprene is lined with synthetic fabric for added resistance to wear.Neoprene is a closed-cell polychloroprene elastomeric foam with trapped nitrogen bubbles that have insulating properties.We test and guarantee the thermal quality of our neoprene materials
Watertight assemblyThe seams are stitched and glued for a watertight seal and durability.The seams are ""blind-stitched"": The thread does not pass all the way through the neoprene, so water can't get through.The absence of threads on the inside avoids irritation and chafing.Patches for comfort and reinforcement are strategically placed on the inside in sensitive areas.
WindproofWe have added smooth windproof neoprene elements to reduce the chilling effects of wind.This component improves thermal comfort and reduces shivering.
Recommendations for useCarefully position the hood on the forehead and cheeks to keep water infiltration to a minimum.
