The racing season has begun, and it requires technical gear that not only protects from the elements but also offers freedom of movement and comfort during long days at sea, both in and out of the water.

The Race: Protection and Freedom of Movement

While racing, clothing must protect without interfering with maneuvers. 

 

The perfect gear for racing includes: 

  • OD Long John: Technical overalls with reinforced knees and an ergonomic fit, providing complete protection from the waist down without restricting movement.  
  • OD Spray Top: Dual Velcro adjustment on the neck to protect against sprays.  
  • OD Shoes: Stability and grip on deck, even in wet conditions.

On the Dock: Functionality and Comfort After the Race

Out of the water, the needs change: lighter clothing is required, but it must still maintain a technical component to face the wind and variable temperatures. 

 

The most suitable garments for this phase include: 

  • OD Hooded Jacket: Technical jacket with an adjustable hood and internal cuffs for days when the weather requires an extra layer.  
  • OD Tech Hooded T-Shirt: Lightweight and breathable with UPF 50+ protection and a convertible hood, ideal for the hottest hours of the day.  
  • OD WS Chino Short 2.0: Lightweight shorts with technical fabric and a versatile cut, perfect both on the boat and ashore.
