Try Before You Buy
Drysuits are an essential piece of safety equipment for kayaking in the Pacific Northwest where the water temps remain cold year round. Renting one allows you to test fit, comfort, and layering before purchasing. Drysuits vary in sizing and trying one out on the water often is the best way to determine what works for you.
​
If you decide to purchase a dry suit from NWOC after renting, we apply up to $99 of your rental cost towards the purchase of a new suit. Credit must be used within 30 days of a drysuit rental.
