Kokatat Odyssey Dry Suit

The Odyssey uses Hydrus 3.0 on the upper body for breathability and comfort while paddling, while the lower section uses a tougher fabric to withstand the abrasion of sitting in a kayak cockpit and walking on rocky shorelines.

Yes, latex gaskets are considered a wear item. While they provide the most reliable watertight seal, they will eventually degrade and can be replaced by Kokatat or a professional repair shop when necessary.

Yes, this suit features integrated socks, which are standard for dry suits. You will need to wear a pair of neoprene booties or water shoes over the socks to protect them from punctures while walking.

The drop-seat relief zipper is designed for convenience during long days on the water. It allows you to take care of business without having to remove your PFD or the entire suit, which is a significant advantage for multi-day touring.

Yes, the hood is removable. This allows you to strip it off on clear, sunny days to reduce bulk and improve visibility, or attach it quickly if the weather turns unpredictable.

The internal suspenders help distribute the weight of the suit across your shoulders, preventing it from sagging or feeling restrictive around your waist. They also make it easier to manage the suit when you are wearing it partially down during breaks.
