Questions about the HydroSkin 0.5 short-sleeve shirt
How warm is the HydroSkin 0.5 shirt?

How does it fit?
It has a form fit and a paddler-specific cut. Use your body chest, waist and hip measurements with the chart; for example, a size L fits a 42–45" chest.
Is it a pullover?
Yes. The entry style is pullover, with flat-lock stitched seams.
What colors are available?
Graphite/Brick and Navy/Mykonos, in sizes S through 2XL.
