NRS Riptide Jacket
Lightweight, breathable, touring/sea kayak jacket
The NRS Riptide Jacket is a practical choice for paddlers who want dependable protection without the stiffness of full dry gear. It’s well suited to sea kayaking and inland trips on rivers, lakes, and canals, offering a comfortable fit that works well over base layers. Lightweight and easy to move in, it’s ideal for relaxed touring and general paddling in typical UK conditions.
Made from breathable, waterproof HyproTex™ fabric, it helps keep you dry while reducing overheating. The adjustable neck and half-zip opening let you quickly cool down when paddling harder, while the hood and sealed seams provide protection if the weather turns. It’s a versatile step up from a basic splash jacket, giving a good balance of comfort, protection, and freedom of movement.
