AIRE Inflatable Kayak Series

AIRE Inflatable Kayaks – Born in Idaho, Built for Whitewater

The AIRE Inflatable Kayak Series delivers top-tier performance with American-made durability, designed and built in Meridian, Idaho. Whether you’re charging Class V rapids or cruising flatwater, these kayaks combine hardshell-like handling with inflatable convenience, giving you the best of both worlds.

Leading the charge is the Hot Potato—an absolute river stomper and the beefed-up evolution of the beloved Spud. It’s fast, fun, and brutally capable in steep technical whitewater. Right beside it is the Force, a performance-driven IK that blends hardshell-style control with the flexibility of an inflatable—ideal for skilled paddlers looking to push their limits.

The Lynx Series offers legendary tracking, stability, and wave-punching power, whether you go solo with the Lynx I or tandem with the Lynx II. The Outfitter I & II are big-water bruisers—extra-wide, ultra-stable, and trusted by outfitters for their forgiving ride and load-hauling power. The Tomcat Series, from Solo to Max, brings durability and performance at an accessible price, making them a favorite for first-timers and seasoned boaters alike.

And don’t overlook the Traveler—a truly unique inflatable canoe-style design that’s perfect for hauling gear on flatwater expeditions or extended float trips.

Whether you're carving into wave trains or drifting through canyon flats, AIRE kayaks are built to perform, last, and get you out there—no matter your style of paddling.
