Palm Equipment

Palm Equipment, a brand with a rich heritage dating back to 1979, was founded by Andy Knight, a passionate paddler and kayak champion. This brand's inception is rooted in Knight's personal kayaking experiences, shaping its commitment to quality and innovation in paddling gear. Originally starting with kayaks, Palm Equipment has evolved to become a specialist in high-quality paddling apparel and equipment.

In the early days, Palm Equipment was a trailblazer in the paddlesport industry, notably introducing waterproof taped seams in jackets, a game-changer in paddler's apparel. This innovation marked a significant advancement in ensuring paddlers stayed dry and comfortable in challenging conditions. Throughout the years, Palm Equipment continued to innovate, embracing sustainable practices by integrating recycled materials into their kayak manufacturing processes.

Staying true to its roots, Palm Equipment has maintained its status as an independent, family-involved business. This has allowed them to focus on what truly matters - crafting durable, high-performance gear that meets the diverse needs of paddlers. Whether you're into whitewater adventures, sea kayaking, or peaceful touring, Palm's gear is designed to enhance your paddling experience.
