DRYSUIT DISPATCH
Kokatat Men’s and Women’s ICON DRYSUIT
rear-access suit in our lineup, the Icon’s back-of-the-shoulders entry zipper makes the suit comfy to wear and easy to pull on and
off, but you’ll need to be a yoga master to zip it up alone.
The Icon comes in a new denim shade for men and violet for
women, with the ladies’ version sporting a handy drop seat.
Made from Kokatat’s GORE-TEX Pro Shell with Cordura reinforcement and waterproof plastic zippers, the Icon is a suit that’s built to last.

Stohlquist Women’s AMP DRYSUIT
Formerly a limited edition drysuit, the updated Icon joins Kokatat’s regular lineup for 2014. The only
The new Amp takes women’s drysuit comfort to the next level.
Cut and sized specifically for women, the Amp is made of
Stohlquist’s 4-layer Twin Sensor fabric. It has the first true-to-
size drysocks we’ve seen and a drawcord under your skirt to trim down any unnecessary bulk.
The overskirt has a super grippy inner tunnel to seal tight to
your sprayskirt and stay put. The articulated knee pads
and reinforced seat add to the Amp’s durability. The only thing that would make it better—the option of a drop seat.

FOUR NEW SUITS TO STAY DRY AND SKYROCKET YOUR RIVER STYLE NRS Men’s
CRUX DRYSUIT
Drysuits don’t have to look good to do their job, but the new Crux from NRS proves it’s possible with a sleek design that sticks to the basics and does them well.
Only essential features made the cut—a solid sprayskirt tunnel, front relief zip, self-draining
cuffs around the neck and wrist gaskets, double-taped drysocks and adjustable ankles—creating a classic and comfortable drysuit.
Made of NRS’s super supple
Eclipse fabric, the Crux is comfy to wear and easy to move around in.

Level Six Men’s TRITON DRYSUIT
An extra-long front-entry zipper and roomy design will make the Triton a favorite for broad-shouldered boaters. It’s easy to pull on and off and seriously unrestricting.
Thanks to a casual cut, the Triton’s legs looks like a normal pair of pants, with the option to streamline the suit’s adjustable ankles.
The jean-style hip pockets make
for major storage space but feel bulky when full. The zippered arm pocket has an attached inner pouch for extra safe stashing.
The Triton doesn’t have a
sprayskirt tunnel but pulls tight at the waist with tabs on tough elastic straps to dial in fit.
