Wazza's Thoughts
This one’s for when you’re not just steering, but you’re crawling up the bow in a squall, getting hammered by spray, and need to stay dry enough to think straight. Latex neck and cuffs seal it up, neoprene waist locks it down, and the whole thing’s built tough without turning you into a sweaty mess.
It’s unisex, but not in that “one-shape-fits-none” way. It' cut so you can still layer underneath and move without fighting seams. Dries quick, takes a beating, and doesn’t feel like a rubber straightjacket.
Best for anyone who knows they’ll be on deck in ugly weather - bow work, sail changes, offshore nights. If you’re serious about staying dry above the waist, this is the top that does the job.
