Why We Like The Stratos Comfort-Neck Paddling Jacket

The Stratos Paddling Jacket offers a combination of waterproof protection and minimalist design that is perfect for navigating whitewater. Unlike jackets with latex gaskets, this jacket features a GlideSkin comfort-neck collar that creates a comfortable seal to keep water out without restricting movement. While it provides less coverage compared to a full drysuit, the inner tunnel of this jacket can be mated with a sprayskirt to keep your cockpit and lower-half dry.
