NRS - Women's Ignitor Pant

Cold water doesn't wait for warm weather, and a full wetsuit is overkill for a lot of the paddling we do across Canada — late spring lake crossings, early fall river days, those June mornings where the water hasn't caught up to the air yet. The NRS Women's Ignitor Pant is built for exactly that window: 2mm neoprene insulation that keeps your legs warm without turning you into a sauna the moment you're back on shore.

The neoprene is made from recycled tires, and both the interior and exterior fabrics are fully recycled nylon — flat-lock stitched so seams sit comfortably against skin all day. The paddler's cut gives you the range of motion to brace, exit a swamped cockpit, or scramble up a rocky put-in without the pant pulling or binding. A wide yoga-style waistband keeps everything in place without digging in on a long day on the water.

NRS used dope-dyed recycled face fabrics that cut water consumption by 65% compared to traditional dyeing methods, and water-based adhesives throughout. It's one of the more thoughtfully made pieces at this price point — solid shoulder-season protection without the commitment of a full wetsuit.
