NRS Men's 2.0 Ignitor Shorty Wetsuit

When the calendar says spring but the river hasn't gotten the memo, the NRS Men's 2.0 Ignitor Shorty Wetsuit is your go-to layer for shoulder-season paddling. Built specifically for kayakers and canoeists, this 2mm shorty wetsuit delivers core and thigh warmth during those chilly flatwater tours and mild whitewater runs without the bulk of a full suit. The Paddler's Cut design is the real standout here: generously cut armholes give you the unrestricted range of motion you need for full paddle strokes, bracing, and everything in between, so you spend less energy fighting your gear and more time on the water. NRS has also packed in some genuinely thoughtful details, like a YKK front zipper with a locking top stop that won't creep open under your PFD, flat-lock seams that won't rub you raw on a long tour, and a relief zipper function that makes nature calls far less of a production. The eco-credentials here go well beyond a marketing checkbox: the neoprene is made from recycled tires, the interior and exterior use fully recycled nylon, and the dope-dyed face fabrics use 65% less water than conventional dyeing. It's an affordable, sustainably built wetsuit that doesn't ask you to choose between doing right by the planet and doing right by your paddle stroke.
