Looking to extend your paddling season beyond the summer months? A drysuit is an essential piece of kit for anyone serious about staying on the water all year round. Unlike a wetsuit, which works by trapping a thin layer of water against your skin, a drysuit keeps you completely dry, protecting you from the cold water and wind temperatures. Drysuits are the ultimate thermal protection, allowing you to layer up with fleeces and thermals underneath for customisable warmth. At NorthShore Watersports, we've carefully selected a range of drysuits from the best brands in the business to ensure you're comfortable and safe on the water, no matter the conditions.
At Northshore Watersport, you will find our extensive range of high-quality drysuits for men, women and children. They are all expertly designed to offer optimum comfort, warmth and ease of entry, ensuring you keep sufficiently dry and warm while out on the water.
Our collection of drysuits features a variety of options designed for different watersports. Shop our collection for a whitewater kayaking drysuit, canoe drysuit or a SUP drysuit, depending on your watersports of choice; you'll find options with reinforced areas and flexible materials that allow for a full range of motion as well as keeping you well insulated out on the water. Don't forget your thermal undersuit or thermal pants to wear underneath to keep you warm even in adverse conditions.
At Northshore Watersports, we source our drysuits from only the most trusted and reliable brands, ensuring you get the best high-quality, long-lasting kit. Peak, Palm and Typhoon are leading the way with their innovative canoe and kayak drysuit designs in durability and comfortable fit. The seals at the neck and wrists are crucial for keeping water out, and our drysuits feature high-quality latex or neoprene seals that are both effective and comfortable for long days on the water.
When selecting a drysuit, features such as zip placement, pocket configuration, and material technology are crucial. Many of our drysuits, including models from Peak and Palm, feature relief zips for added convenience. The Typhoon drysuits offer the innovative 'Hinged Zip' system, allowing you to unzip the top and bottom nearly fully. Unlike the back-zip suits, the Hinged system allows the front to flap over, making it incredibly easy to put on by yourself. The fabrics used are also a major factor; they are not only waterproof but also breathable, allowing moisture vapour to escape, which prevents you from getting clammy. As a result, this ensures you stay warm and dry from the inside out, making your time on the water more enjoyable and helping you perform at your best.
