					<description><![CDATA[This Hi Vis inflatable dry bag has been designed for storing your kit whilst you swim and to use as an inflatable safety buoy which increases your visibility to others in open water situations.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Swim Research dry bag features dual air bags. Fill the bag with your gear and then inflate the air chambers equally on both sides of the buoy. This product offers much more buoyancy than a regular dry bag and sits much higher in the water to help reduce drag.</p>
<p>The adjustable dual belt design attaches securely around your waist and the leash ensures that the buoy remains out of your way while swimming.</p>
<p>We recommend the safety buoy for for all open water swimmers who need to carry their kit/valuables when going for a swim, along with anyone who is swimming in areas where extra visibility is needed.</p>
<ul>
<li>Hi Vis Orange</li>
<li>Designed for safety and storage when swimming outdoors</li>
<li>28 Litre</li>
<li>Adjustable waist belt</li>
<li>Perfect for open water swimming</li>

					<description><![CDATA[Swim Research from C-Skins has been developed for recreational and competition swimmers alike. This range has been designed by swimmers and built by C-Skins using over 40 years of experience and know-how to ensure you get the best products available.

Here at the Shack we understand how much of a difference a good neoprene swim hat makes for a cold sea swim. The design of these hats ensures your head and ears are covered with 3mm cosy neoprene that doesn't ride up or slide off. A handy velcro adjuster gives you the perfect fit.  Protecting your ears not only keeps you warmer but helps to protect you from damaging your ears from prolonged exposure to cold water.]]></description>
