Whatever your fitness goals, wearing the right kit at this time of year is essential to protect yourself from the elements, especially if you’re getting back out on the water.
The Crewroom layering system has you covered from top to bottom for ultimate protection. Performance baselayers, mid-layers and outerwear – all designed with attention to detail, a considered approach to product design and exceptional fabrics.
Here are our top rowing picks to get you kitted out and ready for new fitness goals in 2025…
Baselayer: The Classic Baselayer
Designed with pure comfort and function in mind, the super-soft fabric helps regulate your temperature and wicks away sweat. But it's the ingenious hemlines give complete freedom of movement without any restriction or annoying chafing.
Add to that the flat-lock stitching around the seams on the raglan sleeves and you've got yourself a supremely comfortable baselayer which has been made with thoughtful design every step of the way. Also, available in hi-vis, this is ideal for winter training.
Mid-Layer: The ¼ Zip Water Resistant Top
Made with a super soft inner fleece and an outer fabric that's water-resistant, this is a great mid-layer for protection from the elements. Nifty design features include a handy water-resistant arm pocket and waterproof zip, for maximum protection.
Outer layer: The Classic Rowing Gilet
Designed to protect your core just a little bit more when you're heading into the elements, this gilet features waterproof and wind-resistant shoulder and back panels (perfect for going backwards), four-way stretch, breathable fabric on the front (perfect for manoeuvrability) and a soft inner fleece (perfect for warmth and comfort). Available in hi-vis, this is your go-to on-water rowing gilet.
Bottoms: The New Rowing Legging
This is our classic rowing legging, re-designed for even better fit and function. New features include added elastic in the waistband to ensure the leggings stay in place without impacting your breathing pattern, plus upgraded super-stretchy fabric that’s not only wicking and fully opaque, but abrasion resistant too – which means they’ll look like new wash after wash. We've also added a handy waistband pocket for keys, gels or small valuables, which means you keep the important bits with you, both on and off the water.
Feet: The Rowing Sock
These are breathable socks, uniquely designed to wear in the boat and with sliders. The abrasion-resistant fabric protects feet against chafing and blistering while maintaining the shape and the appearance of the sock.
Hands: The Pogies Combination Set
Unlike gloves, pogies act as a shell, covering the hands and tip of the oar, allowing you to maintain a sense of connection with the water. Designed with a waterproof and wind-resistant shell, plus soft fleecy lining, this is a great bit of kit when things get windy, wet and cold. NB: The combi set includes pogies for rowing and sculling.
