Kayaking Clothes

Kayaking clothes

In order to enjoy your kayak outings in the best conditions, it is necessary to equip yourself with the right equipment. Depending on your practice as well as the weather, you will have to choose different types of equipment such as kayak gloves or kayak booties. In winter, kayak clothing will protect you from the cold, so you will need thick clothing for optimal protection. Conversely, in summer, you should not protect yourself from the cold but from heat and sunburn.

Safe kayaking

In addition to clothing, you should also choose your safety equipment. First of all, you must wear a buoyancy aid adapted to your practice and your morphology. A vest must be worn at all times and must be closed and adjusted to maintain freedom of movement without being too big, as a vest that is too big could slip in the event of a fall.
Furthermore, if you are paddling on a choppy river, we advise you to wear a kayak helmet to protect you from possible falls or branches that you may come across during your river trips.
