The Palm Descender Shoes are a great option when venturing outside for some whitewater kayaking. They are equally as well suited for open canoeing, sea kayaking and also sit on top kayaking. These wetsuit boots will offer good levels of warmth and comfort whilst also giving plenty of support due to the firmness of the sole unit.
Palm Equipment have designed the Descender Shoes to feature a 4mm neoprene construction. All of the seams have then been glued and blind stitched for enhanced levels of performance. To ensure the best levels of warmth, these neoprene boots also feature a quick drying thermospan lining. They feature a 3/4 length cut which finishes just above the ankle bone; the top of the boot also incorporates a gasket to keep as much water out as possible. The front and rear of the ankle also has pull tabs, this certainly helps to get the shoes on with more ease. The base of this shoe includes the Palm traction sole unit which gives good levels of grip on most surfaces. There is then a strap around the back of the ankle and also the front. These help to keep the foot firmly in position.
