DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Protection and Comfort
The ION NEOPRENE SHELTER CORE JACKET focuses on wind and water protection without sacrificing freedom of movement. Its high-quality neoprene traps a layer of warm air next to your skin, a difference you'll feel the moment you get off the water. The snug fit prevents flushing, while the ergonomic hood contours to your head to block drafts without blocking your view.
Hood and Fit
The ergonomic hood is designed to stay put when you turn your head or face strong winds. The fit is carefully tailored to hug your torso and shoulders without pulling on your arms, making technical moves feel natural. It's a supportive fit that moves with you, not against you, a feature that's essential for paddling, sheeting in, or just holding on.
Materials and Finish
The high-quality neoprene combines durability and insulation. All seams and finishes are designed to minimize water entry and resist wear and tear at the edges. The jacket feels tough but flexible, keeping you comfortable for hours on the water.
On-Water Performance
On deck or on a support boat, this jacket is an effective barrier against cold wind, taking the bite out of gusts and keeping you comfortable. For active riding like paddling or trimming a sail, the cut won't hold you back. While it doesn't manage moisture like a full wetsuit, the neoprene significantly reduces the cold feel when you're in and out of the water.
Who it's for and When to Use It
This jacket is for anyone out on the water in cool, windy conditions. It's an ideal technical layer to wear over your wetsuit when a standard windbreaker isn't enough. It's great for coastal cruising, boating, or any discipline with constant wind exposure, where it will quickly become an essential piece of kit. Wear it as an outer layer over a wetsuit or top for crucial extra warmth.
Buying advice
For the best performance, choose a size that gives you a snug fit. If it's too loose, you'll lose warmth; too tight, and you'll sacrifice mobility. For those between sizes, we suggest going up a size to leave room for a layer underneath. You can use the product code 48232-4123 or the EANs for specific size orders, or visit us in-store to find your perfect fit.
