Kokatat Odyssey Dry Suit

Yes, it is specifically designed for long-distance touring. The GORE-TEX Pro fabric offers the durability needed for extended use, and the inclusion of three storage pockets allows you to keep essential gear accessible while on the water.

The front entry zipper allows you to put the suit on and take it off without assistance, which is a significant advantage when you are prepping for a launch or packing up solo. It also makes managing the suit during quick breaks much simpler compared to rear-entry models.

Yes, the hood is constructed with GORE-TEX Paclite technology, providing a lightweight yet highly effective barrier against wind and rain. It is fully removable, so you can strip it off when conditions are calm to reduce bulk around your neck.

Latex gaskets provide the most reliable, watertight seal available for dry suits. While they require a bit more care and maintenance than neoprene, they are the industry standard for ensuring you stay completely dry during rolls or heavy surf.

The integrated GORE-TEX socks are designed to be worn inside your preferred paddling shoes or sandals. Because they are part of the suit, you will need to ensure your footwear is sized slightly larger to accommodate the thickness of the dry suit socks and your thermal base layers.

The removable internal suspenders are essential for keeping the suit properly positioned on your torso, especially when you are out of the water. They prevent the suit from sagging and help distribute the weight of the garment evenly across your shoulders for better comfort during long days.
