Palm Gradient 3.0 Boots We made the mark one Gradient fourteen years ago; mark two followed six years later, building a great reputation with paddlers. Now it's time to unveil the Gradient Boots 3.0 - collaborating with Bren Orton and Vibram to take on the title of best-ever river boots.Everything on the gradient has been designed for water. The custom Vibram sole with traction lugs keeps your feet planted whether ascending or descending, made from ultra sticky HydroGrip rubber compound. The midsole's dual-density foam cushions your heel and aids stability and control with denser foam at the forefoot. The upper is designed for durability in the water too including a neoprene cuff, that prevents ingress of debris. The large toe box gives you space to wiggle and the insole is removable to create extra volume for adding winter socks.
