Skirts are also for men, period.
Ask any kayaker along with the following famous people :
Sean Connery, Mel Gibson, Liam Neeson, and even Samuel L. Jackson wore a skirt in the movies. Other stars such as Alec Guinness, George Lazenby (James Bond 1969), Mike Myers, Ewan McGregor, George Clooney, and numerous others have worn skirts/kilts.
Most men in Western society are afraid to wear any skirt-like garment,
because they fear it would be confused with femininity and cross-dressing.
Stand up to those that doubt your masculinity, wear the kayak skirt proudly
and paddle to your hearts content as often as you can.
The kayaking skirt is also knows as a spray skirt in paddling forums.
It is used to maintain a secure seal on the boat for safe and effective paddling.
Of course the kayak skirts come in a variety of colors and materials.
Generally speaking, many men have some fashion sense and will
attempt to color coordinate their kayak accessories a bit.
Be sure that the grab loop is accessible — no joke here !
Make damn sure it's not caught on the inside of the cockpit
where you can't get at it when you need it.

Ask your local kayak clubs and paddling shops.
