The Gill Women’s Hydrophobe Top is a high-performance thermal base layer designed specifically for women who demand warmth, comfort and freedom of movement on the water. Ideal under wetsuits, drysuits or spray tops, it provides lightweight insulation without adding bulk.

Constructed from a soft, fast-drying polypropylene blend with 4-way stretch, this women’s-specific design delivers a close, comfortable fit that moves naturally with the body. The fabric offers effective thermal protection along with UPF 50+ sun protection, making it suitable for both cold and bright conditions.

Flatlocked seams minimise irritation during active use, while integrated thumb loops help keep sleeves in place when layering, preventing bunching inside wetsuits or drysuits. Lightweight, breathable and quick-drying, it supports temperature regulation during long sessions on the water.

Whether worn as a base layer beneath neoprene or as an insulating layer under outer shells, the Women’s Hydrophobe Top is an essential piece of technical sailing apparel for dependable, year-round performance.

Ideal for: Sailing, paddling, dinghy racing and cold-water watersports
