NRS Riptide: The popular paddling jacket in the new version

Our opinion: A very comfortable semi-dry jacket with double spray collar and neoprene sleeve cuffs. The NRS Riptide is the upgraded version of the NRS Tor, offering even better water protection. The jacket is quite short, so we recommend ordering one size up. The NRS Riptide pairs perfectly with the NRS Freefall or Hiko Bayard dry pants.
