FAQ, glossary & keyword filter for >paddle jackets

  • Double fireplace
    (39 x)

    A double gusset on paddling jacket or dry pants provides a tight transition between this two-piece clothing option.
    In addition, the paddle jacket can be connected to the spray deck as tightly as possible, which is why the double chimney is standard in whitewater.

  • single fireplace
    (11 x)

    In contrast to the double chimney, maximum tightness at the transition to the spray deck cannot be achieved with a single chimney.

  • Children's paddling jacket
    (3 x)

    Little paddling jackets for kids.

  • Short sleeve paddling jacket
    (6 x)

    If you like it warm and dry on your torso, but still want to dip your arms in cool water or stretch out towards the warming sun, you can choose a short-sleeved paddle jacket.
    Also helps against typical paddler tans and shifts the imprint from the wrist to the upper arm.

  • latex cuff
    (32 x)

    Latex cuff(s) at the neck or sleeves achieve maximum density on paddle jackets and dry suits.

    Some paddlers get skin irritations from the latex. You can counteract this by always diligently dusting the cuffs with baby powder (talcum powder) or carefully shaving the beard transition on the neck.

    If the latex becomes sticky, especially through perspiration, then please rinse with clear water and powder in new ones.

    If all that is not enough, or if a lack of comfort is the main argument, then a jacket / suit with neoprene cuffs is recommended. These are more comfortable and durable, less allergenic, but also noticeably less dense.

    Incidentally, we also have talc as an accessory: McNett Protalc talc care product for latex

    (10 x)

    There is rightly a lot of discussion about the sustainability of outdoor clothing. According to the manufacturer, the products marked with this keyword are more sustainably produced.

    You can also find out more about the various manufacturers and their philosophies on the manufacturer's website.

    When in doubt, we will always try to recommend the more sustainable product, e.g. made from recycled material.

  • Neoprene cuffs
    (7 x)

    Here we only list the jackets that only have neoprene cuffs, i.e. a Velcro closure, which makes them significantly less tight on the sleeves and neck.

    Freedom of movement is guaranteed.

  • Neoprene cuff
    (12 x)

    Neoprene cuffs are not quite as tight compared to latex cuffs. On the other hand, they are more robust and possibly more comfortable to wear.

    Especially for those who always get a skin rash from latex cuffs.

    Additional neoprene cuffs are fitted over many neoprene cuffs with Velcro, giving things a double seal and responsive to small wrists.

  • zip collar

    Paddle jackets and base layers with zip at collar.

  • Semidry
    (23 x)

    We call the whitewater paddle jackets Semidry, which (in part) do without latex cuffs.
    There are versions with latex cuffs on the sleeves and neoprene cuffs on the neck, as well as jackets that only have neoprene cuffs.

    The density is not quite as good as latex, hence the term “semidry”
    The advantages: less prone to wear and tear, less constricting feeling on the neck and usually a lower price.

    Some dry pants are also listed here in their simple version with neoprene cuffs instead of socks.
