Kokatat Fjord Paddling JacketThe Kokatat Fjord Paddling Jacket gives you protection from sea splashes and cloudbursts alike. If you're getting just as much moisture on you from the sky as you are from the sea, the Fjord's innovative Tropos fabric offers unsurpassed waterproof protection, and will help keep you warm as you tough out the storm. With its anorak-style hood and mid-thigh length, it's also a great choice for soggy rafting trips. Use the adjustable bungee hem to roll it up to waist length, and you can also roll up the adjustable hood when the sun finally pokes out. One feature that sets Kokatat rainwear apart is the tight seal on the wrists, achieved by using coated, stretchy Lycra with adjustable closures. Though the wrists aren't waterproof in a swim, they diligently prevent paddle drip from invading and wetting out your inner layer. A large, zippered front drop pocket lets you store snacks for nourishment on the fly. The Fjord is an updated version of the classic English Cagoule which was originally used in mountaineering, but has lately been favored by English sea-kayakers as a foul-weather garment for shore or boat.
