Neoprene wetsuits specifically designed for paddling, offer flexibility and unrestricted upper body movement for a full range of paddle strokes and kayaking skills. Not only do wetsuits offer good value and warmth to the paddler, they also protect the paddlers lower body from knocks and bumps when swimming in shallow water. Often teamed up with a paddling jacket or cag on the paddlers top-half.

Peak Neoskin ¾ Strides
Really comfortable to wear, being made from a flexible, stretchy neoprene. They feature a high cut back to prevent them riding down whilst sat in a seated position and have a grippy print on the knees and seat to prevent slip-sliding around. Offering more comfort but not as much warmth as a full wetsuit, they also allow for more range of upper body movement, and can easily be removed to answer the call of nature! Worn under board shorts by play-boaters, provide knee protection for open canoeists and additional warmth and comfort whilst Sit on Top kayaking. They are also popular with Stand Up Paddle Boarders and competition paddlers alike.
Peak Neoskin Full Length Pants
A longer, full length version of the popular Strides, but offering more coverage, warmth and protection. They feature a high cut back to prevent them riding down whilst sat in a seated position and have a grippy print on the knees and seat to prevent slip-sliding around. Offering more comfort but not as much warmth as a full wetsuit, they also allow for more range of upper body movement, and can easily be removed to answer the call of nature!
