The HIKO Odin Air4.X drysuit for men is the current top model from the traditional Czech manufacturer HIKO. Besides its almost unbeatable price-performance ratio, the Odin impresses with many well-thought-out technical details and a cut specifically designed for whitewater paddlers.
As is typical for high-quality drysuits, the Odin also features latex seals at the neck and wrists, which are protected by long neoprene covers. These not only protect the sensitive latex from UV radiation and mechanical wear,
but also provide additional warmth to the wrists and forearms – a great advantage in cold conditions.
Of particular note is the ergonomic fit, which allows complete freedom of movement in the shoulder and arm area – even during wide paddle strokes or dynamic maneuvers. The extended torso ensures that even paddlers with a large span don't experience any pulling sensation in the shoulder area.
The Odin also scores points with CORDURA® reinforcements in high-wear areas such as the seat, knees, elbows, and forearms – ideal for tough use in whitewater or packrafting. Despite this robust construction, the suit remains pleasantly flexible, as the Air4.X material used is not only extremely waterproof and abrasion-resistant, but also surprisingly lightweight.
The double-pull system at the hip chimney is another positive feature. This allows the upper part of the suit to be fitted tightly and evenly to the spray skirt chimney, effectively preventing water from entering. The integrated Cordura® socks, now double-welded, ensure dryness and maximum durability in the foot area.
The waterproof TIZIP® back zipper, further protected by a Velcro flap, makes entry easy. Adjustable Velcro cuffs at the ankles help to customize the fit and prevent the suit from riding up.
Conclusion:
The Odin Air4.X is the perfect choice for any paddler looking for a thoughtfully designed, durable and affordable drysuit – reliable, comfortable and made for use in demanding conditions.
