Good product at the right price By Rich from Freehold from Cape May NJ on 06/03/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I use it when I go out surf casting along with chestwaders. At low tide you can walk out into the surf close to 100 yards where a wave can nail you. Also in between the sand bars the depth can drop a couple of feet. It keeps the water off of me. I would rate the product super if the elastic bands were on the outside and there were inner neoprene cuffs. The inner elastic bands are a little difficult to use.
By C-T Walker from LONDON,ENGLAND on 06/02/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable Cons: Hard To Put On Or Take Off Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Durable and water shedding top also permits unrestricted movement. As with many such fabrics is noisy when moving.
Great for Cool weather kayak fishing By SB Yakfisher from Santa Barbara, CA on 04/22/2008 Pros: Adjustable Fit, Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Easy to see on the water Cons: Hard To Put On Or Take Off, Sticky zipper Best Uses: Boating, Paddling Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The cuffs can be tricky to get your hands through, and the over-lap style wrist closure tends to leak unless you have it cinched down really tight. Other than these minor drawbacks, this jacket is a winner for cooler weather. I wear it weekly for all-day kayak fishing excursions along the California shoreline, and it has taken me through some pretty "snotty weather" days as well as days that start out sunny, calm, and beautiful, but then get chilly as the afternoon comes on. This jacket is light, breathable, and very comfortable. I also abuse it with fish slime and all sorts of nasty goo while kayak fishing, and it has held up remarkably well in its first season of use. I just rinse it off and hang it out to dry and it still looks great.
By jbm750 from Minneapolis, Mn on 04/14/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Size runs a little small, had to move up one size
By Ga Paddler from Rome, GA on 04/11/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Best Uses: Boating, Paddling Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Great jacket, love the liner on the inside. The draw seal on the bottom holds water if it gets in else where.
Great jacket for the price . By Gene from New York on 04/05/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: As indicated it is a jacket that you will be seen in
so that other boaters won,t have a reason to miss you, which is handy when you are in a low riding kayak .
Seems I chose the wrong size By Drytopless Jack from Scranton, Pa. on 04/03/2008 Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: My first drytop. Typical [...]Lotus Designs high quality. Unfortunately I chose a medium, which turned out to be way too tight. Tried it on late the other night. If all drytops are half as difficult to put on, I'll just stick to wetsuits. It was only the thought of seeing my wife and teenage son doubled over with laughter as I called for help with the thing stuck half over my head with my arms extending upward that forced me to gut out the ten minute extraction struggle. Hopefully my nose should straighten out in a few weeks. One thing for sure, no water would ever get by these gaskets. A high quality product however, but try ordering a size or two larger.
Great Kayaking Foul Weather Jacket! By Kayak or Bust! from Connecticut on 03/29/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Great design, the pockets on the side are pretty high, very water proof. I generate allot of heat, will probably be too hot unless cold out. Wish it had pit zips, but will definitely be part of my cold weather paddling gear. XL good for 240lb, 6'.
By K-ker from WI on 03/25/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable Cons: Hard To Put On Or Take Off Best Uses: Colder Water, Paddling Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: For the price it is an excellent deal. The latex gaskets are a bit tight and low riding on the biceps, natually they want to sit in the elbow but once in place they keep you really dry. I wore it last weekend on the Ocoee, about the only person in short sleeves (65 degrees with 45 or so water) It kept me extremely dry and hugs the skirt better than my long sleeve drytop. Except for the skirt tunnel it can be shaken out to dry and it is ready to go again.

By sciototrails from Chillicothe OH on 03/03/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: With this jacket as the top layer you are prepared for the winter rains of Ohio.
