Kayak ? about clothing?
For you more experianced kyakers out there. I just bought my first kayak, and was wondering if all the expensive clothing is worth it. I have some Keen water shoes, a TNF Gore-tex jacket, could I jsut use that stuff as outerwear and layer say like smart wool or under armor under it and be just as good as say a $400-600 Outerwear paddling jacket. I live in the 4 corners and wil spend most of my time paddeling the Animas river. Like I said I am new to kayaking and would like the help. I only got the kayak, cause it was a good deal. $350 for the boat, skirt, bladders a GPS, 2 dry bags 1 PFD, and a really nice CF paddel.
Sorry for not being clear but I figured the 4 corners was all I needed to say, Its a hybrid whitewater/river kayak. Average air temps for 12 months average as a low of 30 to a high of around 83. Water temp I would say without being able to find that info 20°-60°
The difference between your TNF Gore jacket and the expensive paddling jackets you have heard about is the neoprene/latex cuffs & neck on the paddling jacket. These water tight seals keep the cold water OUT, your TNF jacket will not. That is why the Paddling jackets are so expensive, at the $400-$600 range though you are referring to a complete drysuit; these are typically not necessary unless you are in extreme conditions (whitewater/ocean, with very low water temps).
My favorite paddle clothing brand is Immersion Research. You can get a great paddling jacket from them for $150-$250. http://www.kayaks.net/dry-tops-and-bottoms/c1000005308/
