We have a pair of 2016 Palm Zenith Pants<\/a> here at Unsponsored HQ for review.The Zenith pants are designed to be combined with any dry or semi dry top to create a flexible system for year round use.<\/p>\n

\"unsponsored-palm-zenith-pants<\/p>\n

Although a two piece combination will find it hard to be beat a drysuit I have used a number of two piece systems in the past that have been super dry. The big advantage is that you can mix and match tops and bottoms to create a system that is best matched for the conditions you are going out in.<\/p>\n

I will be matching these pants with the Palm Fuse jacket which we have been using here at HQ for almost a year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Both the Fuse and this pair of Zenith pants<\/a> are in Jet Grey, although the pants are also available in blue<\/a>. I reckon the grey looks pretty smart.<\/p>\n

\"Palm<\/p>\n

The Zenith pants replace the Neon pants in the Palm line up. The overall cut and the number of panels\/seams have been improved.<\/p>\n

The RRP for the Palm Zenith pants is \u00a3115.95.<\/p>\n

Specification:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Materials XP 2.5-layer fabric Nylon 320D overlay reinforcement
\nVelcro adjustable neoprene waistband
\nTwin waist
\nNeoprene gaskets with velcro adjustable cuffs
\nReinforced seat and knees <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Zenith pants come equipped with a double waist to get a good seal with a twin waist cag. The inner waist is quite long which means that even when sat down or moving about the protection level is still great.<\/p>\n

\"Palm<\/p>\n

The outer waist is Velcro adjustable via two large tabs that sit at the front. The waist seal also includes a couple of drain holes just in case water does find its way in. Both waists include a line or two of silicon to help the fabric grip against a cag or spray skirt.<\/p>\n

\"Palm<\/p>\n

The seals at the ankle are taken care of via a long neoprene gasket. I’ve used these extensively on a Palm semi dry suit and they work great. There is also the possibility of getting the optional factory fitted XP 4-layer socks added.<\/p>\n
