Stay warmer longer with thermal accessories! There's something for every temperature range...
When we're in the water, it's through our extremities (feet, hands, head) that we lose more than half of our body heat.
Therefore, here are the recommended accessories:
- in warm and temperate water (>17°C) => neoprene socks.
- in cold water (12 - 17°C): high booties and gloves. in cold water (12 - 17°C): High booties and gloves.
- in very cold water (7 - 12°C): High booties, gloves, balaclava and top balaclava...

Choosing the right size
A neoprene top should be worn very snugly to guarantee maximum thermal efficiency. It's normal to feel too tight during a fitting in the cabin or at home. This discomfort quickly disappears as soon as the top gets wet.
Materials
The Top Cagoule Olaian is made from 100% Neoprene for maximum comfort.
Neoprene is lined with synthetic textile for greater resistance to wear and tear.
Neoprene thickness: 2 mm and 1 mm.
Neoprene is composed of an elastomer foam with insulating properties.
We test and guarantee the quality of our Neoprene materials.
Sealed assembly
The seams are sewn and glued to guarantee waterproofness and durability.
The seam is called blind: the thread does not go through the entire thickness of the neoprene, which prevents water from passing through.
The absence of threads on the inside helps prevent chafing.
Comfort and reinforcement patches on the inside are placed at sensitive points.
Windbreaker
We've added smooth, windproof neoprene inserts to reduce the shivering effects of wind. This component improves thermal comfort and reduces shivering.
