NRS Men's Echo Splash: Lightweight and breathable protection at an unbeatable price
Echo Splash: Simple Design, Top-Notch Functionality
The NRS Echo Splash Jacket proves that great protection doesn’t have to cost a fortune. It’s designed with an athletic fit that supports natural movement while paddling and also provides plenty of room for layering (such as base layers or a fleece) underneath the jacket. Even when layered, the jacket remains comfortable and doesn’t restrict your movement under a personal flotation device (PFD). It’s the ideal choice for paddlers who want a reliable barrier against water and wind without sacrificing breathability.
HyproTex™ 2.5 Fabric: Breathability and Durability
At the heart of this jacket is a tried-and-true technical fabric:
- HyproTex™ 2.5: A lightweight, technical fabric that breathes exceptionally well and effectively repels water. It wicks sweat and moisture away from the body, which is key to maintaining comfort during longer paddling sessions.
- Factory-taped seams: All critical seams are carefully sealed at the factory, ensuring reliable waterproofing and preventing water from seeping in even under the most demanding conditions.
- Durability and Lightweight: The material is durable enough to withstand normal wear and tear on the water, yet it remains lightweight and won't weigh you down when worn all day.
Key Details: Seams, tunnel, and sleeve pocket
NRS prides itself on thoughtful details that make a jacket a truly functional piece of gear:
- Adjustable urethane collar: Both the neck and wrist feature flexible urethane cuffs that can be easily adjusted to fit your body for an optimal seal and comfort.
- Double drawstring neoprene waistband: It provides excellent waterproofing and prevents the jacket from riding up. It works in conjunction with the spraydeck’s deck tunnel to ensure maximum cockpit protection.
- Sleeve pocket with an Aquaguard waterproof zipper: A practical feature for storing small items (keys, energy bars, a cell phone in its case) that you can easily access even while wearing the vest, without letting water get inside.
Recommended activities: From sea kayaking to hiking
The NRS Echo Splash is a versatile protective layer for various water activities:
- Sea Kayaking: Excellent protection against saltwater spray and wind during longer crossings on the open water.
- Water Tourism and Recreational Paddling: A lightweight, breathable jacket that will keep you dry during spring and fall outings on rivers and lakes.
- Rafting and mild whitewater: Adequate protection for fun runs, where you'll appreciate the freedom of movement and quick moisture-wicking.

Jacket Care and Maintenance
To maintain breathability and water resistance, we recommend thoroughly rinsing the jacket with clean water after each use, especially after contact with salt water. Wash gently by hand or on the delicate cycle in the washing machine (max. 30 °C) using liquid detergent designed for technical membrane clothing. Never use fabric softener or bleach! Rinse the urethane cuffs and let them air dry while hanging, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Do not tumble dry or iron.

Expert advice: The secret to the Echo Splash jacket’s perfect seal lies in properly adjusting the double neoprene tunnel at the waist. Before putting on the spray deck, tighten the tunnel thoroughly so that it fits snugly against your body or neoprene pants. This creates an effective barrier against water. The urethane cuffs are great because they easily adapt to different wrist and neck sizes—if they seem too long around your neck, you can carefully trim them on most NRS models for a better fit. The pocket on the sleeve is perfect for your car keys or an energy bar you want to keep close at hand. Enjoy the lightness and freedom on the water!
