Questions about the Women's Stratos jacket
Is the Women's Stratos a dry top?
It blends splashwear and a dry top. Latex wrist gaskets and a double tunnel are dry-top features, while the neoprene neck keeps most water out rather than sealing completely. For full cold-water immersion, choose a latex-neck dry top or a dry suit.
Does it offer sun protection?
Yes. NRS rates the Stratos at UPF 50+, and the long sleeves add coverage.
Will it seal with my sprayskirt?
Yes. The coated nylon inner tunnel mates with your sprayskirt, and the neoprene outer waist cinches with a double-pull hook-and-loop closure.
Is the Women's Stratos flame resistant?
No. The Women's Stratos is water rescue and paddling gear. 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.
How do I choose a size?
Use chest and hip. A size M fits a 36–37 inch chest and 39–41 inch hip with a 32 inch sleeve.
