DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Advanced Cut Protection
The standout feature of the Surf Shield Wetshirt is its ability to reduce cuts from foils, fins, or rocks. The HPPE fabric offers EN388 Level 4 protection, giving you an extra layer of safety without the stiff feel of body armor. We highly recommend this top for spots where cut hazards are present.
Comfort and Freedom of Movement
With its Loose_Fit and 75% HPPE / 25% elastane blend, this wetshirt is incredibly comfortable. You get a full range of motion for paddling or maneuvering while kitesurfing or foiling. The material is flexible and breathable, perfect for wearing on its own or as a protective layer under a wetsuit.
Stays Put Through Your Session
The Slip_Loop system connects the top to your boardshort, preventing it from riding up during wipeouts or when you're powering through a turn. It's a smart detail that makes a huge difference during an active session, especially when foiling where contact with your gear is common.
Versatility and Use
The Surf Shield Wetshirt is suitable for various disciplines: Surf, foil, Kitesurf, and paddleboarding. It also offers UPF 15 sun protection for long days on the water. Its clean, technical style pairs easily with the rest of your gear.

FAQ
Who is the ION Surf Shield Wetshirt for?
The ION Surf Shield Wetshirt is for any rider exposed to cut risks from foils, fins, or reefs, and for anyone who wants extra protection without sacrificing comfort. It's suitable for all skill levels and is especially useful at technical spots.
What are the key features of the ION Surf Shield Wetshirt?
This wetshirt is made from a 75% HPPE and 25% elastane blend, combining high resistance with flexibility. It offers Level 4 cut resistance (EN388), a comfortable Loose_Fit, a Slip_Loop to keep it in place, and UPF 15 sun protection.
What size should I choose for the ION Surf Shield Wetshirt?
Use the size chart above to find your best fit, from 48/S to 56/XXL. The Loose_Fit is relaxed, but we recommend using your chest, waist, and arm measurements to ensure you get the best mobility and protection.
How should I care for my ION Surf Shield Wetshirt?
Rinse your wetshirt with fresh water after each session to remove salt and sand, then let it air dry in the shade. Avoid tumble dryers and harsh detergents, as they can damage the elastane and weaken the HPPE's resistance. Store it flat to maintain its shape.
What should I pair with the ION Surf Shield Wetshirt?
Pair it with boardshorts or a wetsuit, depending on the temperature. Use the Slip_Loop to connect the top to your boardshorts and keep it in place. This wetshirt works great as a base layer under a wetsuit or on its own in warmer water.
