# 3 – Review: Palm Zenith Jackets

Palm’s Zenith Jackets have been around for a while and they’re getting better with every new release. There is a long and a short sleeve version, a long sleeve women’s model, and a few colour options.
For 2019 Palm exchanged the GlideSkin neoprene neck with the new UltraStretch neoprene seal: this is much thinner, sticks comfortably to the skin and, I think, it keeps the water out almost as good as a latex neck seal.

The fabric of both, short and long sleeve jackets, is a 2.5-layer breathable material. Palm’s been using this for years, it’s super reliable, doesn’t delaminate, and stays waterproof for years.

Zenith Women’s Long Sleeve Jacket

My favourite paddle jackets for summer and winter, I don’t think anything else can beat them!
