The Palm Atom is built for whitewater paddlers who demand absolute performance and rugged durability. Now constructed from Seawastex® XP 4-layer recycled fabric, it combines a tough, high-density nylon weave with sustainability that doesn’t compromise strength. Reinforced panels at high-wear points and double-taped XP 4-layer socks ensure longevity, while a six-panel articulated cut in the upper body delivers exceptional mobility and comfort.

Dry protection comes from latex gaskets at the neck and wrists, backed by GlideSkin outers for comfort and security. A deep neoprene waistband with twin waist keeps the spraydeck locked in, while YKK AquaSeal zips and a curved bomb-door relief zip guarantee reliability when it matters most. Fleece-lined details, reflective elements, and secure AquaGuard pockets complete a drysuit that balances strength, agility, and trust. Available in dedicated men’s and women’s fits.

Palm x Seawastex® — Discarded fishing nets are collected through coastal return schemes, cleaned, and chemically recycled into new nylon before being spun into high-performance Seawastex® yarns. These fabrics match or exceed the strength, durability, and abrasion resistance of virgin nylon — while cutting carbon emissions by up to 49% and using 15% less energy. Certified to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS), Seawastex® supports coastal communities, helps keep oceans cleaner, and delivers world-class paddlesport performance. Recycled, but never second best.

Why it should win

For over twenty five years, Palm has been refining drysuit design in ways others are only beginning to follow: articulated cuts that move with the paddler, construction with no 4-way seams for durability, and the assurance that every suit is individually pressure tested before leaving our purpose-built factory. The Atom takes that proven foundation and pushes it forward with Seawastex® XP 4-layer recycled fabric — a high-density nylon weave that is tougher, lighter, and certified sustainable.

This is a suit built to perform where the water is most demanding. Its six-panel upper body moves like a second skin, while GlideSkin seals, AquaSeal zips, and reinforced panels ensure dependable dryness and strength. Designed, tested, and built by paddlers, for paddlers, the Atom combines Palm’s heritage of innovation with the responsibility of a future that demands sustainability.

Strong, agile, and uncompromising — the Atom isn’t just ready for whitewater. It’s built to last in every sense.
