Paddling Layers

41 products

Stay comfortable on the water, whatever the conditions.

From lightweight sun shirts and insulating thermal layers to splash jackets, dry tops, and full drysuits, find the paddling apparel you need to extend your season and enjoy more time on the water.

Whether you're running whitewater, exploring New England lakes, or getting out on a chilly spring morning, the right layering system helps you manage changing temperatures, wind, and water exposure.

Build your layering system:

  • Base layers: Lightweight, quick-drying pieces for comfort and sun protection.

  • Insulating layers: HydroSkin and neoprene apparel for added warmth in cool conditions.

  • Splash protection: Lightweight shells to help block wind, rain, and paddle spray.

  • Dry tops and pants: Technical protection for demanding paddling conditions.

  • Drysuits: Full-body protection for cold-water adventures.

Choose your layers based on water temperature, weather, activity level, and the conditions you expect to encounter. Remember that staying warm in cold water requires appropriate insulation and protection, not just a waterproof outer layer.
