Zhik Christmas Gift Guide

Zhik Christmas Gifts

Okay, it’s the 18th October, and yes, we are going to start mentioning Christmas! We will apologise now…..

In 2016 we saw a big increase in Zhik products being sold as Christmas gifts, the most popular products last year were gloves, boots and PFDs (buoyancy aids).

For 2017 we thought we would provide you with a Zhik Christmas Gift Guide to show you what’s available to buy within a range of price categories.

For those that haven’t heard of Zhik before, they are an Australian company providing innovative sailing kit for sailors across the World. Tested and proven, Zhik is the clear winning choice of Olympic and World Champions.

Zhik Gifts for Under £15

The clear winners in this category are going to be the Zhik Sailing Gloves, and also the Zhik Superwarm Headband.

The Zhik Grip Gloves are made form a lightweight nylon with a grippy latest coated palm.

The Superwarm headband uses the same fantastic superstretch neoprene used in the Superwarm wetsuit range. It also has a fast drying hydrobase inner lining which not only provides thermal insulation but it also drys very quickly.
