I have a Kokatat Rogue and I love it. Like most things, you get what you pay for. Very comfortable, tough, and dry. I'm sure other dry tops are good also especially price wise, but I don't think I've seen a negative comment about the Rogue's performance or quality. Kokatat customer service is top notch. Given the swims I've had on different rivers, I have appreciated it! :mrgreen:

I have the NRS flux. Half the price of the Rouge, but great quality.

Disadvantages to the Flux

1: No pockets

Advantages to the Flux:

1. Latex wrist and neck gaskets
2. Less expensive

If you decide on the Flux, get 1 size bigger than you think you need and you will be happy with it. I think the XL kokatat has longer arms than the XL NRS flux which is def. a plus.

Just my 2 cents.

Kokatat Rogue also has latex wrist and neck gaskets...
