The Aropec Swimming Jacket Rashguard – 1.5mm kept me warm during my snorkeling trip at Pulau Tioman. Fit is snug and comfortable, and I liked how easy it was to put on with the front zipper. Only wished it dried a bit faster after my swim.

Is this swimming jacket suitable for layering under a full wetsuit for winter diving? I’m planning a trip to the Gold Coast in July and the water can get really cold.

Hi Samuel, yes, the Aropec Swimming Jacket Rashguard – 1.5mm is designed to be layered under a wetsuit for extra warmth. It’s lightweight and flexible, making it a good option for cold water environments like the Gold Coast in winter.
