Kit Guides

Dinghy sailing can be super tough on your kit. Decks and cockpit floors that feature aggressive grip give the sailors security in the boat, whilst at the same time providing clothing manufacturers some interesting challenges.  Previous  options tended to be to use harder wearing fabrics that offered less (or no) stretch, or compromise on the wear to allow freedom of movement. The breakthrough came when we combined hard wearing polyester fibres with elastane to create Duratex II™. We have been integrating this across our product range over the last 12 months so you can feel both comfortable and unrestricted on the water whilst secure in the knowledge that your clothing is up for any challenge.All our current neoprene garments us Duratex II™, so when you decide to treat yourself, you know you are investing in the most durable and comfortable kit from Rooster®.
