There is nothing worse than going sailing for a second day and putting yourself into a cold wetsuit from the previous day. It ruins your day and makes you cold before you even start!
Introducing Zhik Microfleece X - a wetsuit that's designed for use in the UK between April and September this is a 1mm thick wetsuit with a fast drying hydrobase inner that wicks moisture while also being super soft.
I love my Microfleece wetsuit, it's unbelievably warm for a very thin wetsuit with excellent flexibility. Being a skiff suit you can take advantage of layering and adjust your other layers to suit the conditions on the day. Sometimes I will wear this with a rash vest, other times I will wear a hydrophobic fleece top to hold a little more warmth closer to my body.
The skiff suit dries quickly because the key panels which sit close to your body are lined with an improved Hydrobase material which provides extreme thermal insulation and is very quick drying.
Zhik have another variation of the Microfleece wetsuit which they call the V. This is designed to be a similar wetsuit to the X but comes with less features and a lower price point.
You can see all of our sailing wetsuits on our website.

I rang to request some advice on replacement parts for my dinghy and was very impressed with the excellent advice and efficient delivery of the required parts. Many thanks
Great product, safely packaged, delivered on time, at a competitive price. One more thing - the person on the end of the phone is an actual person, informative, helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant. What more could you ask for.
The sales team were quick responding to our questions, dispatched to us promptly, and the product is a perfect replacement for our old tiller which ended up at the bottom of a lake!
It was time for me to upgrade to a newer Ilca and it was recommended that I get a Devoti. The price was competitive and the service from Andrew and his team was fantastic. I received lots of communication and the boat was delivered to me within 2 weeks. It is really great that Sailing Chandlery take the time to set up the rigging so that you can get straight on the water. I am very pleased with my new boat and am loving sailing it. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Ordered a dyneema RSAero halyard on the Thursday. It arrived by mid day on the Friday and was used on the Saturday. Excellent product and service. Thank you
Cover arrived after three days and is well made and completely covers the boat boom up . The straps and clips all work fine. Good product.
My local chandlery were unable to supply a white inspection hatch and so it was amatter of looking online. Sailing Chandlery had the cover I needed in stock at a good price and delivery. I had never used them before but the service I received was excellent with the delivery on time and the hatch is now fitted.
I will definitely return, especially with the discounts on offer. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Always happy with my orders from Sailing Chandlery. They are quick to post and very helpful when I have had a question.
Jason delivered the boat on time at Hayling Island Sailing Club. The boat was new and all the spars were in perfect condition. Jason came to pick up the boat and return the deposit which I gave at the time of the delivery. Every interaction with Andrew and Jason were handled very professionally. I will recommend to any sailor Sailing Chandlery in the future. I really appreciated how easy it was to charter this boat. Thank you very much. Jacques Kerrest
Prompt delivery, with helpful updates and time slot spot on. Perfect new sail at a great price and the number fixing service is well worth it. It even won its first race! Thank you.
I needed GBR letters for the ILCA Europeans and they arrived by the next post.
I made a mistake on my order and it was put right at zero cost to me ! Amazing !
I’ll certainly be back
