The Global Paddling Community

Kayaking, Canoeing, boating, and fishing are great ways to enjoy the outdoors. Now more than ever, these are important stress-relieving activities that provide exercise and allow us to connect with nature and each other.

On the nice days when the sun is warm and the spray is refreshing, It is tempting to take your life jacket off or not wear one at all – but according to the US Coast Guard, most boating-related drownings happen on nice days and by those considered good swimmers.

Life jackets come in many varieties. Though we manufacture our own line of comfortable, breathable life jackets suited for Paddlesports and our watercrafts, the best lifejacket for you is the one that you will wear every time you are out on the water.

At Old Town and Ocean Kayak, it is important that we lead by example. That is why we are committed to require all employees, pro staff and those featured in our marketing content, to always wear a life jacket while representing our brands. And we strongly encourage all of you to do the same.
