Paddling Drysuit Buyer's Guide
Front Zip vs Rear Zip Dry Suit
Supply chain issues continue to strain the outdoor industry, but sometimes there are upsides. Kokatat has long been dedicated to sustainable practices throughout their Arcata, CA factory and supply chain, and when they were informed of more substantial delays coming down the pipe with Gore, they got scrappy... literally. They worked out a way to offer their most popular suits (Icon, Meridian and Legacy) in this limited-edition collection made with remnant GORE-TEX PRO fabric colors.
Features
- Kokatat's classic durable formula of GORE-TEX Pro with 330 Cordura Gore in the Seat and Knees

- Latex wrist gaskets with neoprene overcuffs.
- Front-entry design with nylon waterproof zippers and dual flap protection.
- Double-pull outer skirt with hook-and-loop compatible neoprene grips your sprayskirt for a water-tight seal.
