Description:
Neoprene leggings built for getting wet. The NRS Women's HydroSkin 0.5 Pant (NRS item 15013.05) gives light insulation for cool days on the water, worn alone, under shorts or with other HydroSkin layers. The high-rise stretch waistband stays put when you are kneeling in a raft or climbing a bank, which makes it a practical layer for rescue team members and guides. See more dry suit base layers.
Features
- Nylon-spandex outer face: sheds water and stretches with every reach, pull and paddle stroke.
- Smooth, hydrophobic lining: feels soft against bare skin and does not soak up water.
- 0.5 mm Terraprene neoprene with a titanium layer: reflects body heat back toward you so you hold warmth in cold water.
- High-rise, yoga-style waistband: stretches comfortably and has extra material on the back panel for coverage seated or standing.
- Form fit: limits water flushing in, which helps the neoprene insulate.
- Paddler-specific cut with friction-free, flat-lock stitched seams: for comfort and free movement during long shifts on the water.

Questions about the HydroSkin 0.5 Pant
How do I choose a size in the HydroSkin 0.5 Pant?
Use your waist and hip measurements with the chart; it also shows the matching numeric size. For example, M matches numeric size 8–10 with a 31–33 inch waist.
What is the inseam?
The pant inseam runs from 28 inches on XS to 31 inches on L and XL; 1X is 29 inches, and 2X and 3X are 30 inches.
How warm is it?
It is lightweight insulation: 0.5 mm neoprene with a heat-reflecting titanium layer for cool days and cold water.
Can I wear it under other layers?
Yes. NRS designed it to be worn alone, under shorts or layered with other HydroSkin pieces. See more water rescue PPE.
Is the HydroSkin 0.5 Pant flame resistant?
No. It is water rescue and paddling apparel made from neoprene and nylon-spandex. It is not flame resistant, is not structural firefighting PPE and is not NFPA 1971 certified, so keep it away from fire and high heat.
