Paddle clothes

So after a few times of going out, getting wet and the sun deciding it wasnt going to come out, thus leaving me cold and miserable the rest of the day i ordered a paddle jacket. Figured that would clear up my worries. Then i got to thinking, maybe i should invest in a pair of those "dry pants" for paddling as well. Its going to start warming up soon enough, so i'll be back to the board shorts with the jacket onboard as a just in case, but how many of you guys have these dry pants?

I wore my waders out last time to keep dry and warm and they worked well enough. I figure dry pants might be a little easier than waders, but i wanted to see if anybody has them and if you think they're worth it.

I have the Extrasport pants and top, was suprised at how well the neoprene on the foot keeps out the water, really good investment.

I went to Target an dbaught the Eddie Bauer rain suit. $25.00 and keeps me dry and the wind off my legs. I may get wet when I launch at LJ but my body heats and the PVC keep me nice a toasty.

Any level of protection. Splash pants to full dry suits.

Yep, I use these:


They wont keep your ass dry if you're sitting in water all day but they definitely keep me warm. Wear them with trunks underneath and booties when it's cold. Had to have a zipper sewed in for on-the-water Tecate disposal. Have a North Face splash jacket as well. This combo has been working well for me for several years.
