Whether you are a dedicated winter skins swimmer or planning your first foray into year-round swimming, a little bit of neoprene can help you stay in the water longer and enjoy your swims more. Whether you choose to wear a wetsuit or not, gloves, hats and socks will give you an extra bit of insulation – it is the extremities that get cold first.
We tested a full range of neoprene accessories – including a bandana from Head, a balaclava from Huub and a neoprene swimming costume from Zone3! Some kit can even be worn under a wetsuit to give you extra protection from the cold.
