Whether you want to keep your kayak extra dry while playboating and in bigwater, or the water is cold and the air is hot, this shortie will be your favorite go-to! And don’t worry, it won’t melt…

+ Short sleeve dry top with a neck latex gasket is further protected with a neoprene cuff
+ The neoprene bicep cuff is made with a thin silicone band along the inside. It is there to keep your sleeves in place while providing a watertight seal against your skin, but rolling your sleeves up a little makes getting in and out of your top that much easier.
+ A double tunnel waistband to provide a tight seal against your sprayskirt
+ Equipped with our “Double Pull” system where pulling forward on the waist tabs simultaneously tightens the front and back and is then secured via hook-and-loop on the front for a perfect fit.

DuoBase 1.5 Alpha

Neoprene is an impressionable fabric that should be cared for after each use and prepared correctly for long term storage. Dirt and grime can rub and cause abrasions over time so it is best to rinse off between uses. When the neoprene is going to be stored over a longer period of time use a mild detergent and clean thoroughly. Most importantly though make sure that the neoprene is fully dried before storage to prevent possible long term issues and odors. Finally, do not hang with clamps or fold when not in use as this can reduce the elasticity of the material.

Latex+

Latex+ material care involves addressing the unique needs of both components. Rinse thoroughly after every use to remove residue that could degrade the latex gasket or neoprene sleeve. Treat latex sections with silicone lubricant regularly to maintain elasticity, while using mild detergents on the neoprene portions to keep the sleeve odor-free and flexible. For storage, ensure the gasket is free from stress or sharp objects, and keep the neoprene sleeve flat in a cool, shaded area to avoid brittleness.

Air4

Synthetic membrane materials require thorough cleaning after each use to remove sand, dirt, salt, and oils, which can obstruct the pores and impair their multi-layered functionality. Wash with water and a mild, non-residue detergent, ensuring all soap is thoroughly rinsed away while avoiding fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the membrane’s structure. Allow the material to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from heat and UV rays, to preserve its integrity. For storage, hang or lay the item flat without folding to prevent creasing and stress, and always use underlayers during wear to minimize skin oil accumulation on the membrane.
