Re: New to kayaks what winter clothing do you recommend
I use to wear something similar when I lived in the UK for mountain biking and they worked well. I've just changed my kayak footwear to a pair of 5mm Probe Idry dive boots. I was trying to make a pair of 3mm dive shoes with sharkskin socks work for winter but found them to be too cold. Now I can get away with the 5mm dive boots on their own. They also have a fleece like lining which makes them fairly comfortable. Ignore the claim of 'dry in minutes' though as this isn't the case but they seem to feel dryer quicker than my other dive shoes
