Re: [Paddlewise] A Fit Over Fit

I might mention that Kokatat makes a full line of gear for women,
including drytops, wetsuits (new this year), and dry suits. There is even
a special woman friendly relieve zipper option available. In my club, we
have several womens kokatat drytops, which are much loved by the women I
have talked to. Also, Lotus makes a womens lifejacket cut to fit in the
right places. It looks like gear manufacturers are starting to catch on at
least a little bit.
