Palm’s driest and most durable multisport paddle jacket — in women’s fit
Cold water and tough conditions are part of the journey when you’re pushing your paddling to the next level — but getting totally soaked shouldn’t be. That’s why we highly recommend the Palm Women’s Zenith Jacket. It offers all the same performance as the unisex version, but in a women’s-specific cut for better comfort and fit. With latex wrist gaskets, a GlideSkin neck that seals tighter than standard neoprene, and a rugged XP 2.5-layer shell built for repeated use, it’s ideal for Grade 2 Courses, early spring Gorge trips, or as your emergency race-day layer. The twin waist and chest pocket add function without bulk, and it packs down well enough to carry when needed. This is the driest, most durable jacket we offer for Coast to Coast paddling — trusted by our team when staying warm and dry matters most.
