| Lotus Designs is a kayaking-based subsidiary of Patagonia that offers performance-level gear for kayakers, including stretch dry tops and semi-dry tops with long and short sleeve options. Lotus Designs paddle tops have the modern double-tunnel dry top design with a drawstring inner skirt; additionally, Lotus Designs adds advanced waterproof protection with layered, extremely breathable H2No® fabric, taped seams and waterproof Deluge® finishes. The StretchCoat® collar and watertight sleeve gaskets common to most of Lotus Designs’ kayak tops are also there to keep water from entering next to your skin. In addition to paddle tops, Lotus Designs produces PFDs (life vests) designed specifically for paddling ease in a kayak or canoe. |
