Don't see your size here? Our retail store stocks the largest selection of new Kokatat Goretex drysuit sizes in the US and probably anywhere else. We actually stock XXL, King size, all Women's sizes (with and without drop seat zippers), and we even stock some custom sized suits (i.e. Women's L with arms and legs shortened and Men's L and XL with body lengthened). And if you need a custom size or options that we don't have in stock we are happy to order them for you and probably have more experience with those custom options/sizing than any other Kokatat dealer. I (George Gronseth) have personally been using dry suits for kayaking for over twenty years (times about 200 days/year of use that adds up to a lot of dry suit experience). And my staff and I have put well over a thousand of our students into dry suits and spent the day or week with them. And that doesn't even count the people we've fitted in suits for retail sales. We have the most experience and the best service, and when you're making an investment as big as a new dry suit you don't want to make a mistake. Call us if you need to order a new dry suit. (206) 527-1825 Ask for George, Barb or Bob, or go to our on-line store.
We also stock all sizes of latex gaskets and dry socks for Kokatat dry suits and dry tops. Click here for information on ordering gaskets and dry socks.
Want to make a trade? We sometimes take used drysuits in on trade for credit toward a new suit. Call if you have a suit to trade in.

Camping
Coleman Exponent Onyx 2 tent with fly Tent, Coleman Exponent Oryx 2, light (5 lbs 3 oz), compact 2-person, two doors, 88"x56", 3-season, self-supported free-standing, tent. One of the most popular tent styles -- similar to REI Half Dome and many other similarly styled popular tents. This one is especially simple and quick to set up -- two aluminum shock-corded poles form an X, tent has clips that attach to the poles (no sleeves to slide poles through). Rain fly has a third pole to create coverage over the doors, and fly simply buckles at the four corners of tent. Two years old, great shape, no rips, no smells. Color is sand and fern green. Tested on 10 day trips in SE Alaska with lots of rain and stayed dry, $75.00 (new is $130) Stuff sacks, stakes, instructions, included.
Tent, Coleman Exponent Mantis 2, roomy 2 person, 3-season tent. Three aluminum shock-corded poles, full coverage rainfly, stakes, 6 lbs 14oz. Self supported dome style with combination of sleeves and clips for poles. 92" x 62" floor, 42" inside center peak hieght, two doors, no window (other than doors which have no-see-umproof netting too). Sand color. Comes with compression stuff sack, stakes, and bags for poles and stacks. Used one night -- product test, found that the two pole sleeves are snug, making that part of the set-up a bit slow (the third pole has quick clips instead of a sleeve, that works great). Other than that it was a good tent, seems sturdy for a three season tent, and efficient use of space. $60.00 (new $170.00) Stuff sacks and stakes included.
Candle lantern, closeout $5.00
