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.

I need to stay warm while taking/teaching swimming classes in INDOOR pools as I will be often inactive, just standing/waiting in water. I do wear a swimming cap and tries to move as much as I can, but I get really cold.
O'Neill said that their shirts/suits will break down in Chlorine and are not to be used in indoor pools. They also said that none are commercially available.
I appreciate any advices/information! Thank you for your help.
