Drysuits are the ultimate protection for the dinghy sailor in the coldest, most demanding conditions: unlike neoprene wetsuits, they keep the body completely dry thanks to watertight neck and wrist seals and a waterproof zip. They are worn over a thermal layer to ensure constant warmth even in winter.
Made from breathable technical fabrics with integrated socks, they offer freedom of movement during manoeuvres, hiking out and recovery after a capsize. Construction with adjustable braces and an optional hood ensures fit and seal, while reinforcements on knees and seat increase durability.
They are essential for winter sailing, foiling and offshore dinghies, where prolonged exposure to cold and water demands total protection. Pair with a thermal underfleece base layer. Leading brands: Zhik, Vaikobi, GUL and Musto.
