Description:
More core insulation without giving up range of motion. The NRS Women's HydroSkin 1.0 Shirt (NRS item 15034.03) pairs a 1 mm raw neoprene chest and back with stretch nylon-spandex arms, so your core stays warm while your shoulders move freely. It is a mid-weight layer for swiftwater and flood rescue team members, raft guides and boat crews working in colder water. Browse more dry suit base layers.
Features
- Nylon-spandex outer face: sheds water and stretches with every reach, pull and paddle stroke.
- Smooth, hydrophobic lining: feels soft against bare skin and does not soak up water.
- 1 mm raw neoprene chest and back panel: cuts evaporative cooling and adds insulation over the core.
- Nylon-spandex arms and shoulders: stretch freely and hold less water.
- Form fit: limits water flushing in, which helps the neoprene insulate.
- Paddler-specific cut with friction-free, flat-lock stitched seams: for comfort and free movement during long shifts on the water.
