Watch jacket or oilskin lifejackets: preferably lightweight and space-saving, waterproof to protect the sailor from rain, spray and wind. Some are equipped with an integrated flotation device, but you're better off with a lifejacket and harness. For occasional sailing, low-cost jackets are ideal.
The windproof jacket when it's not raining too hard, you can swap your watch jacket for a windproof jacket. It protects you from the wind, but doesn't interfere with your movements. A good compromise! Soft-shells also delay the moment when you put on your foulies.
Wax pants or overalls : Waxed pants are compulsory for night sailing, even in the tropics. At night, humidity covers the deck and protection is essential.
Navigation boots : Choose breathable, non-slip models. They can be fitted with adjustable gaiters to ensure they are waterproof. For the record, always choose one size larger, otherwise they'll be too tight, cutting off circulation and making you feel colder.
Fleece underwear fleece: Choose fine fleece rather than lycra, to help regulate perspiration during exercise. Opt for long johns and undershirts made from synthetics for good thermal comfort, especially under fleece. Even when damp, they remain warm (unlike cotton, which should be avoided!).
The fleece fleece: fleece under a watch jacket protects against the cold and prevents irritation caused by dampness and chafing. We recommend avoiding rough fabrics around the neck and sleeves.
The bonnet in wool or fleece, it protects the sailor's head, which is more sensitive to temperature changes. A warm head ensures good blood circulation and warms the hands!
Gloves depending on the season, you'll choose between a pair of mittens or a full-length pair. In fine weather, mittens protect the palms when handling ropes and leave the fingertips free for precision manipulations such as tying knots. In winter, choose a neoprene model, which stays warm even when wet.
The headlamp headlamp: attached to the forehead, the headlamp illuminates wherever you look, leaving your hands free. Useful for sailing at night, or for DIY in the bilge! Choose a waterproof model, and don't forget the spare batteries!
