Whether you want to admit it or not, autumn is just a few weeks away. Then the time for thin summer neos will be over and the thicker skins will have to be used again. But if you don't want to buy a suitable neo for every season, the ProLimit Chillvest is a sensible upgrade. The waistcoat is 1.5 millimetres thick and has a titanium coating on the inside, which retains body heat well. The waistcoat is available with long sleeves or sleeveless. A version with an integrated bonnet is also available. The idea: when pulled under the normal wetsuit, the waistcoat provides a noticeable warming effect. So instead of buying a suitable wetsuit for summer, transitional periods and winter, the Chillvest allows you to enjoy the season with fewer wetsuits. Of course, during the hot season or in southern climes, you can also go out on the water with just the Chillvest. The Chillvests are available in sizes from XS to XL for between 79.99 and 139.99 euros, depending on the model.
Alternatively, ProLimit also offers the thermo-plush lined Chillvest Extreme which costs 99.99 euros. Anyone looking for a cheaper heat upgrade should consider the 1st Layer Top in mind. This is made from thermal fleece, has an integrated bonnet and offers comparably good thermal insulation despite its lower price of 69.99 euros. The only disadvantage: if you only wear the 1st layer top on the water on hot summer days, it won't keep you warm but will actually cool you down.
An overview of all available variants can also be found on the Website of the manufacturer.
