The Palm Bora Jacket is an expedition sea kayak jacket, it is built to give you the best levels of protection from the wind and rain whilst out on longer sea kayaking trips. This cagoule is packed with loads of great features and will perform to the highest possible standards in all situations
Palm Equipment have designed the Bora Jacket to feature an over the head design, it is made from a very tough and durable 3 layer fabric. This sea kayak cag will also give the best levels of protection from the water, rain and wind, all whilst still being highly breathable to maintain comfort.
A large fold away hood complete with volume adjuster will fold away if required into the fleece lined collar. The neck system of the cag is also a double design. There is a thin inner neck seal which is combined with a zip which makes for easy putting on and removal of the top. The outer layer of the neck features a second zip, the inside of the outer collar is then fleece lined for warmth. The outer zip is also offset, whilst the panel in front of the mouth incorporates laser cut holes for breathability.
The wrist seals on this jacket again are a double system, there is a latex inner gasket with an adjustable outer seal for comfort. The two chest pockets are easily secured by waterproof zips, these are great for basic storage and keeping your hand warm when out of your sea kayak. Finally, there is then a double waist seal which works well with a pair of kayak dry trousers and a sea kayak spraydeck. The outer layer of the double waist is neoprene and this is then secured to the correct tension via the Velcro closure tabs.
