A seasoned rower recently said that his choice of cutting avoided some painful sessions in the cold of March.

Essential criteria: material, cutting and season

The main issue – matching thematerialand the environment. Recett combinations of rowron are mainly made of technical polyester, lycra, or neoprene (for winter); "eco-responsible" ranges sometimes rely on recycled polyester. Some criteria deserve attention:

• Average water temperature: below15 °C, neoprene (thickness2 to 3 mm, flat seams, thermal pockets) really protects even during long workouts.
• Summer climate or temperate river: a technical lycra or polyester, breathable and stretchable, offers enough comfort (a young rower said that he was never cold again during his trips with friends).
• Maintenance: it is better to focus on washable materials30 °Cmachine and dry flat; This limits the famous "wet card" effect observed in some clubs.
