Steve is right. Pogies are OK Till it is time to swim.
I sea kayak almost exclusively: So swimming, while it happens, is not
common.
You likely have to loose your gloves to get a spray deck back on anyway
and pogies actually hold the paddle so you don't have to grip it as
much when you paddle.
I like the pogies but have a zip lock ( sandwich bag.) for dry gloves
when I get out.It is under the front hatch.
I still preffer pogies

Whilst looking for Pogies I seem to be seeing a lot of paddle mitts, are

Muzz I have no idea if they are the same. I have never encountered
paddle mitts.
My pogies are all neoprene ( I have a few pairs ) the velcro around the
paddle shaft and have a loose fit at the wrists to slip in and out of.
I leave them on the paddle and put the paddle in the car so they are
suspended and dry on their own.
