Fits Dagger Katana 10.4 very well
As other reviewers mentioned, this is a very tight skirt. While it may not fit other brands of kayaks with similar cockpits, it does fit the Dagger Katana perfectly. That is...once I worked very hard in my garage to get it on the first time and then left it on for a day to stretch out before taking it out on the water.

Trial and error required for proper size
After reading reviews here and elsewhere I originally ordered a size up. According to the Dagger size chart my kayak (Delta 17 cockpit size 17"x32") should use a small. I ordered medium and there was no physical way I could get it to fit my cockpit. Even outside to boat using multiple people and tools the med would never fit, let alone being able to put it on alone while sitting in the boat.I Exchanged for an XL because I was very happy with the construction quality, features, and style. The XL fits as I would expect and still takes some small bit of effort to put on. Also I am a bigger guy (290) and it also fits around me which I can't say for every skirt I have tried. This would be an easy 5 stars if the sizing was remotely accurate.TL;DRHad to get an XL to fit on a cockpit that their size chart says uses a S. A great product IF you can get the right fit.

It is quite nice, but didn’t fit my older Dagger
Good price, and a very nice, well-made skirt. I have an older Dagger, and although the information I read indicated it would fit, it in fact did not. We put up a fight to get it on, but it simply wouldn’t stay.I shopped around and this is. 5-star skirt. I knew there was a chance it wouldn’t work for me. If you know this will fit your dagger, you’d be crazy to miss out on the quality and price point.

Wayyyy too small.
I measured my kayak, and ordered a size up based on reviews saying it would be tight. It was WAY too small to fit.Luckily it works on my husband’s kayak, although it’s still a pain fit him to pull it on.Order a few sizes up and be ready to test it and return.

Well made spray skirt for open water paddling.
Good spray skirt with a neoprene deck and suspender nylon tunnel for open water paddling. Works well on dagger atlantis and current designs Solstice GT kayaks.

Does NOT fit Daggar Katana 10.4
Since Daggar recommended this spray skirt for the Katana 10.4 (Size XL) I was hoping that it would fit the large size cockpit of the kayak. Unfortunately there is no way I could get this to stretch enough to secure it to the cockpit. I was still 6 inches short of the goal after working as hard as I can. The cord is just too stiff and not long enough (about 65" circumference, need 90"). Sending it back....bummer. Otherwise, this is a good spray skirt for casual river paddling with nice features.

Keeps the water out of my Katana
I learned real fast that if you want to play in the Dagger Katana, you are going to get wet and get water in the boat. I ordered this spray skirt right away and have been using it every time I climb into my Katana. Works like a charm.

Heck of a fight, but it does fit.
For those that are worried that daggers sizing chart is off, no it isn't. This is a stratos 14.5L with a Large skirt on it.... but I had the fight of my life to get it on. I wore it, sat in the kayak and put it on from the front stretching the bungie out as I fought it to seat. 2 people would make it easier. Now if it's left to sit like this it should stretch out some and become easier to install in the future. But damn that was a tough bastard to get on. I'm somewhere around 6'3-6'5" and 200lbs and it tool most of it out of me to get it on. Now I need to work up the energy to go run out to the water today.That and the buckles for the suspenders seem like cheap plastic, the will probably be the first thing to break.

Patience. Beautiful skirt but slow to make it work.
We ordered a Size Large for our Dagger Stratos as recommended by Dagger. The skirt is really great quality and nice looking however if you are looking to buy it and use it right away it won't happen. The neoprene is the right size but the bungee for the combing is way too tight to get on with only one person. We soaked it in warm water (10 minutes) and tied it onto the cockpit past where it would normally sit and let it dry for a day or two. We did this twice for my husband's skirt and three times for mine. Picture attached. Now they work great! Only buy this if you are okay with taking a few days to make it work. The quality is 5 stars but the effort required knocked it down to 3 starts overall.
