Description

Introducing the Titanium T2 Chillproof range, which offers maximum warmth. This advanced thermal protection incorporates all the benefits of traditional Chillproof, along with the added advantage of titanium nano-technology. This technology captures and generates Far Infrared (FIR) energy, keeping you warm and promoting improved metabolic function for better recovery and overall health.


Over 25% of the body's heat is lost through the head and extremities. The Sharkskin Titanium T2 Chillproof full zip vest with a hood is designed to be worn underneath your wetsuit, providing exceptional warmth and insulation for your torso during colder dives.


The hood protects against chafing from mask straps, keeps your head and ears warm, and is flexible enough to be pulled down around your neck between dives while on the boat or on land, ensuring comfort. You can zip up for 100% warmth and protection, or unzip completely when the sun comes out, your activity level increases, or for easy on and off.


Titanium T2 Chillproof garments are windproof, lightweight, and neutrally buoyant, providing the warmth equivalent to a 4-5mm traditional wetsuit. In warmer waters, you can replace your wetsuit, or layer up with Sharkskin T2 for additional insulation in colder waters.

Sharkskin T2 Chillproof Vest With Hood

The cheapest way to stay in the water longer

Most divers don't need a thicker suit — they need a layer under the one they own. A thermal top or hooded vest under a 5mm turns a marginal winter dive into a comfortable one, for a fraction of the cost of a new suit.

It also solves the surface interval. Sydney wind on a wet diver between dives is why a lot of second dives get called off. These dry fast and wear well topside.

Ask us what pairs with the suit you already have — we'll tell you honestly if you don't need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our gear, courses, and policies.

How thick should my wetsuit be for Sydney?

For year-round diving here, 7mm or thicker. The water sits around 16–18°C in winter, and most people who buy a 5mm to save money end up buying twice.

What is a semi-dry, and is it worth it?

A semi-dry has proper seals at the wrists, ankles and neck, so the water that gets in stays in and warms up instead of flushing through. It is the warmest wetsuit option and the one we would recommend if you want to keep diving through winter without going to a drysuit.

My wetsuit is really hard to get on — is it too small?

Probably not. A thick suit is meant to be a struggle for the first minute. It has to fit like a second skin, because any gap is water moving around and carrying your heat away with it. If it slips on easily, it is too big and it will not keep you warm.

Can I wear thermal layers under my wetsuit?

Yes. A thermal top or vest under your suit is the cheapest way to add real warmth without buying a thicker suit, and the same layers work under a drysuit as well.

My feet get cold. What can I do?

Wear a sock inside your boot. It is a small thing that makes the second dive a lot more pleasant.
