Adrenalin 2P Thermal Long Pants

These thermal long pants are a favourite for short paddles, day trips and expeditions - we wear them for all our paddling, through most of the year. Being long, they provide protection from the sun off the water and for open cockpits (canoes, fishing kayaks), as well as keeping warm when wet and drying quickly.

When we are on expedition, these pants actually dry most efficiently through wearing around camp until they dry, rather than taking them off and hanging them up - and they do stay warm (see pics below!).

 
 

Adrenalin 2P Long Pants are a unisex fit, but the stretchiness of the fabric means they do fit really well for a variety of body shapes and there is a wide range of sizes available (XS to 3XL). They have a draw-string waist and they do stay up well - no sagging. 

The 2P Thermo Shield fabric has 170% 4-way stretch, being composed of Polyester and Spandex. It is designed to be relatively form fitting and doesn't sag if wet. As well as for kayaking, this top is great for other watersports - boating, fishing, surfing, as well as climbing and snow sports.

Lavacore Thermal Long Pants

When the weather and the water has really chilled down, these are the pants that are super-arm and stretchy to ensure your comfort on and off the water. They can be worn alone or under a wetsuit or dry pants and are suitable for a wide range of water sports - kayaking, jet skiing, swim training, kayak fishing.

  • Outer Layer: Flexible, durable and water repellant outer layer (DWF) that facilitates fast water run-off and quick drying. UPF 50+ for sun protection.
  • Middle Layer: Windproof and breathable middle membrane provides anti-wind chill properties, that draws moisture away from the body on the surface and ensures warmth in cold conditions.
  • Inner Layer: Warm, moisture wicking and anti-bacterial inner fleece layer minimizes odor and keeps you warm above and below the surface.

Lavacore clothing is great for any water sport where wind chill and splashing are a factor - they will keep you warm when wet and dry quickly - Kayaking, SUP, windsurfing, boating, kayak fishing. They are also neutrally buoyant and so are suitable as a thermal in ocean swimming.
