I am regularly lap swimming in an outside pool that is too cold for me. I do have a "rash guard" but it doesn't seem to provide that much warmth. Any ideas? Can anyone recommend a shirt that will keep me warm and still be lightweight and flexible? I swim one mile in about 50 minutes. I know if I swam faster, I could stay warm. But it is the initial immersion that is so cold, and it takes me about 25 lengths to not be thinking about being cold. I am slim.
Appreciate comments on this.
Thanks.

But there are other companies that other people like also. Start with the Thermo-X stuff at this website, just to get an idea of what is available. The equipment is geared to surfing, which means it is meant to be hyper mobile and flexible. That translates well to swimming for me, and I don't have to buy it twice.:)
