Slide on the waterproof breathable Kokatat Women’s TROPOS Helix Dry Top, and enjoy bone-dry boating from the put-in to the takeout. Rather than watering down a men’s design, Kokatat constructed this kayak top to fit the bodies of female paddlers without sacrificing performance features. You’ll find smooth-fitting neoprene gaskets, hook-and-loop closures at the neck and wrists, and ample adjustability built into the river-ready Helix.

Bottom Line: Sealed, secure, and ready for lady paddlers who send it.

runs small, but works great

By:

I ordered this on the larger side and was glad I did because it runs small. I am 5'8 and 150 lbs and ordered the large (still had to stretch the neck gasket over a pot overnight to stretch it out) I use mine (paired with a mary jane wet suit) for canyoneering and cold-day white water rafting and it works great to keep me warm without overheating. It is fairly new, but so far has held up great.

This weighs in at 1lb 4oz. I have done some light hiking in a top of similar fabric, mostly to scout rapids. They breathe relatively well, for something that is designed to keep you dry. Does it breathe like Egyptian cotton?..No, but it does the job.

Seems solid - sized small

I ordered this for my wife, for whom medium size is typically spot on, or on rare occasions too large. This dry top was too small to try paddling/playing for my wife.
