Dry Suit Accessories
While all our drysuit rentals do have a full sock, they do not include water shoes or paddling gloves. Maintenance, pricing and tracking inventory are a little tricky with those accessories and we haven’t come up with a system to do it yet. We highly recommend some kind of footwear that goes over the drysuit sock as it is not made to be walked on and is prone to leaks if you walk on rocks or sticks. You can get creative with sandals (duct tape straps) if you don’t have water shoes. Gloves are definitely nice if you’re going to be in colder water or air temps- the more waterproof the better but neoprene is not 100% necessary unless you know you’ll be swimming.
If you want to buy these accessories we have pretty affordable options for shoes and gloves on our retail website (wildsideoutdoorsllc.com) for sale and we’ll offer an additional 20% off when you use coupon code shoesandgloves20 at checkout. Select local pickup for shipping if you want the items shipped with your rental for free.
