WOW. Who has one?!?! Are they any good at all? Will it last more than one season? $65 is an awesome price.

Those dry tops are nice when u wanna go deep in ur waders an not get wet.i'm not really a fan of that an will wetsuit if goin deep.for foul weather I use a grundens pullover top i got last yr.it has neopreme cuffs an is fleece lined which makes it alittle hot when warm.plus it has a hood. in the dry top type.I have the opposite problem from most the neopreme collar was chokin me (an it was hard to get over my ears).I hadda go wit the 3x.for comfort.it's pleny roomy though Which is good for groovin.

Nice thing about the Simms top is that the neck and wrists are not so constricting...easier to get on and more comfortable to wear...

Unless of course you want a true dry top, then the EVO may be the better top for you...

#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&. This one has a velcro neck. I saw one at the HH store in Newport. I think it was around $130.

I love my Simms drytop, had plenty of water come over my head and stayed bone dry...I have put a good amount of hours on mine and it still performs. I just rinse it down with fresh when i get home (with everything else) and hang it...I give it a thumbs up

I got a gift certficate to Patagonia and bought a kayak jacket called the Seaward Pullover which is for expedition paddling. It has same double type wrist set up as the aquaskinz, a neoprene neck that is adjustable with a velcro strap so you can loosen it up-but the best feature is that it has a hood. When its raining or a rogue waves comes in its great. Really comfortable --no feeling like you are being strangled. Also has a pocket.

Only problem is its $210- which for Patagonia is not too bad. So far I like it. I will really test it out on Cuttyhunk in September.

i've used many tops and jackets for years. I have a conversion dry top which is the best top I've owned. It keeps you dry and warm, wish it had a hood though. It is good for early and mid to late season. If you want something for the summer, it is too hot. I wetsuit in it all the time, its Rugged. Excellent over waders too and if you have to kick a couple of strokes in waders you can do it with this top. #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& , I never tried carrying a tin boat thru the rocks. A wetsuit is a little easier I would think, maybe a set of fins if its a long swim. No law against casting back to shore either.

I wish they made a lightweight top like the aqua skinz, that had a hood like the extinct Bear tops have . Just something to keep the waves and rain off ,not a skin diving top.

Where do I get one for $65?

[reefman]

I'm on my second season with NRS Endurance top and it's the best $65 i've ever spent. It's lightweight, breathable, and very comfortable to move and cast in. I''s not going to keep you warm come October but you will stay dry. Remember I said it was the best $65.00 I spent so don't try to compare this to the Simms or the aquaskinz tops, they're in a whole different category and price level.

I just bought the Endurance top.

For me money IS everything.I can layer underneath this.

I also bought the '02 Reactor gloves for 10 bucks.If they aren't suitable I'll send'em back.The NRS guarantee is as good as any.

Not all of us can afford Simms or Aquaskinz.

Was just at Eastern Mountain Sports here in Middletown.They had the NRS PowerHouse jacket.At $95 also a very nice product from 1st impressions.
I was comfortable in it.

No Endurance jackets though.Would've very much liked to have tried it on also.

I can honestly say that out of all fishing tackle or gear manufacturers that I came across over the years ,and believe me there were many,Kadir has been one of the most responsive owners in dealing with its costumers.The man bends over backwards to help those who purchase any Aquaskinz product.I own (bough and paid for ,thank you very much) all the jackets they made and so do most of my friends.The only problem I had was when water started leaking thru the gaskets but that was because I lost forty pounds in weight.
Did some guys had problem with their tops ?Yes but the question is has manufacturer dealt with the problem.To my knowledge .yes.That's all any customer can ask.

Thanks guys for recognizing our efforts, we appreciate it. We will continue to do our best to serve you all will our best efforts as without you, there is no AquaSkinz.

Regards and tight lines.
