NRS Riptide Jacket

The NRS Riptide Jacket is a fully featured touring jacket, offering more protection from the elements than a simple spray top without the restriction of a heavy weight cag. The lightweight HyproTex material is highly waterproof and breathable, but also very flexible which when combined with the articulated cut of the jacket makes for a very comfortable garment with excellent freedom of movement. Featuring a peaked, adjustable hood, a half-zip neck with an inner seal, and double waist system the Riptide has all the features of a full sea kayaking cag in a lightweight versatile jacket.

The Riptide is perfect for both inland and coastal touring, for everyone from beginners and intermediates looking to extend their paddling season to highly experienced expedition paddlers looking for top performance in a light and breathable garment.
