Yak Neoprene Paddle Pogies, Kayak Mitts Warm Hand Covers Paddling & Kayaking

The Mighty Neoprene Pogie - Saving hands in winter! Neoprene not Nylon100% paddle feel maintained The pogie may have a funny name, but it saves serious discomfort on chilly days. Its main benefit over a paddle glove is that your hand is still directly onto the paddle shaft so you have 100% blade dexterity and feel just like normal. Being Neoprene rather than Nylon is also a Key factor as it feels warm against your skin - nylon will feel slick and cold as it cannot insulate your hands from the evaporative cooling your trying to avoid. Blocks the wind, Blocks the water, and even if your hands are already wet by stopping the wind it stops that evaporative cooling effect which makes the air feel so much colder than it is.

Worried what happens in the event of a capsize? Simple, the moment you let go of the paddle your hand can slip straight out of the pogie and you can swim as normal. The Yak pogies also have a secondary cuff to reduce air movement and water getting inside your pogie. Best deisgn I have seen yet. One size fits all.
