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 (>17°C): neoprene low booties.
- in cold water (12-17°C): High boots and gloves.
- in very cold water (7-12°C): High boots, gloves, hood, hooded top.
Find our entire range of neoprene accessories on the Decathlon website.
Multisport nautical accessories
These accessories were developed primarily for surfing.
We’ve created a design that’s compatible with many other water sports, including swimming, kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, water skiing, and stand-up paddleboarding.
Warmth and wind
The minimum water temperature recommended for the use of this anti-UV T-shirt is 22°C if it is worn on its own. Max. duration: 3 hours.
This fleece shirt helps avoid shivering when you enter the water. Please note that wind can cause discomfort when the shirt is wet, making you feel colder. In windy conditions, choose a top with neoprene.
This top can be worn under a wetsuit.
Sun protection
UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) is an international standard that measures. the proportion of UV rays a fabric lets through to your skin. A UPF of 50+ means that the fabric blocks at least 98% of UVB rays and 95% of UVA rays.
Reduced chafing
This thermal top helps limit rubbing and chafing due to contact with the surfboard or bodyboard. Wear under a wetsuit to limit chafing, particularly around the neck and armpits. The seamless panels under the arms limit irritation due to paddling movements. Our test protocols confirmed that irritation was limited during three-hour sessions.
Quick drying
The polyester textile is naturally quick drying.
An additional water-repellent treatment prevents water absorption to limit shivering in case of wind. It also makes drying easier. The effects of this treatment will decrease after 5-6 machine washes. To increase durability, rinse with clear water instead of washing with detergent.
