Palm Terek: Eco-friendly innovation and uncompromising comfort for your expeditions
NAVIGATION / CONTENTTerek: Premium Performance with the Planet in Mind
The Palm Terek is proof that top-of-the-line outdoor gear can be produced sustainably. By using 100% recycled nylon sourced from post-industrial waste, the manufacturer has significantly reduced this product’s environmental footprint. However, the jacket retains all the top-tier features you’d expect from modern paddling apparel—waterproofing, wind resistance, and the ability to effectively wick away moisture.
XP 3-Layer Material: Lightweight, Breathable, and Quiet
The jacket is made from an innovative XP 3-layer recycled fabric. Unlike older, stiff membranes, this three-layer fabric is exceptionally soft, slightly stretchy, and very "quiet" when moving (it doesn't make the typical rustling sound). Weighing just 483 grams (in size L) you'll hardly feel it on your body, and when packed, it takes up very little space in your boat bag.
Collar and Cuffs: ExoSkin Technology for Maximum Comfort
For paddlers who don't like the feeling of tight cuffs around their necks and wrists from stiff latex cuffs, the Terek model is a godsend. That's because it uses top-of-the-line material ExoSkin (flexible, thin, and smooth neoprene-polyurethane composite):
- Krk: The collar made of ExoSkin material is fitted with with a short, water-resistant zipper. When it's windy, you can zip up the collar; when you're working up a sweat and get hot, just unzip it to let the air flow right away.
- Wrist: The soft ExoSkin inner cuffs adhere perfectly to the skin and reliably prevent water from running down the paddle. On the outside, they are protected by an adjustable Velcro cuff that prevents wind from blowing in and damaging the inner layer.
Hood and Storage Space: Details You'll Appreciate on Every Trip
The Terek jacket is designed for true travelers and explorers.
- Roll-up hood: It's cleverly designed so it can be easily pulled over a kayaking helmet. When you're not using it, you can easily roll it up and secure it so it doesn't flap in the wind.
- Pockets: On the chest, you'll find a practical kangaroo pouch with a high-quality YKK AquaGuard waterproof zipper (ideal for safely storing small items). Beneath it is a through tunnel pocket – Great for warming up cold hands when you're not paddling.
- Passport: The bottom hem of the jacket is easily adjustable with Velcro straps. Reflective elements ensure your visibility and safety in low light or inclement weather.
Suitable activities and field deployment
The Palm Terek is a versatile "touring" jacket that excels at:
- Sea kayaking and lake tourism: Excellent protection against the vagaries of the weather on large bodies of water.
- Packrafting: Thanks to its light weight and packability, this is the ideal jacket for combined hiking and water expeditions.
- Canoeing and paddleboarding: The flexible and quiet material does not restrict movement during any type of shot.

Care and Maintenance of a Water Sports Jacket
To ensure the jacket retains its excellent properties, we recommend rinsing it with clean water after paddling in saltwater or very dirty water. Never wring out the jacket, do not tumble dry it, and avoid drying it in direct, intense sunlight or on a hot radiator. Dry it hanging loosely on a hanger. If the outer layer eventually loses its water-repellent properties, restore them using a commercially available waterproofing spray (DWR) designed for membrane clothing.

Expert advice: If you're looking for a jacket you can wear all day long, the Terek is one of the best options on the market. The three-layer recycled material is incredibly “flexible”—it doesn’t feel like hard plastic, which used to be the norm with older paddling jackets. The ExoSkin seals at the neck and wrists are designed primarily for comfort. Yes, if you go for a swim in a whitewater roller while wearing the jacket, a few drops will get through, but for hiking and sea kayaking (where you’re more likely to be splashed by waves and rain), it’s absolutely perfect. The combination of a short zipper at the neck and a warm, tunnel-style hand pocket makes it an incredibly practical piece of clothing for changeable weather.
