The beginning of each year brings new Zhik stock. Ready for the upcoming sailing season. Below let have a look at what we have arriving this year from Zhik
The Zhik CST500 Jacket is one of the latest sailing jackets from Zhik.
It is a part of the high performance coastal range of jackets that are built to be lightweight and comfortable whilst maintaining a high level of features and innovative design.
Features We Love
-High Collar, for enhanced neck protection
-Hydrobase Lining Collar, which wicks moisture away from your body and is fast drying.
-Water Tight Ergonomic (shaped) Elastic Wrist Closures.
-Water Tight Internal Chest Pocket
There are many more great features in this jacket but these are just our favourites above.
Available in The Flame Red and Black Anthracite.
The Zhik CST500 Smock removes the hood and front zipper entry and adds a large adaptive front pouch pocket whilst still including many of the great features of the CST500 sailing jacket. The tapered adjustable cuffs work along with the velcro wait for adjustment to give ultimate comfort without add and unnecessary bulk. The CST500 Smock has been tested and developed on various legs during the Volvo ocean race.
Features We love about the Zhik CST500 Smock
-Fully seam sealed, breathable and lightweight - 3-Layer Aroshell® Fabric technology
-Adaptive front pocket - secure large objects or have 2 contained secure dump pockets
-Quick access Arm Pocket for Emergency beacons
-Articulated arm panels for ease of movement and minimal bulk
Available in Black Anthracite
The last new item from the Zhik CST500 Range is the Salopettes. Constructed under the same design philosophy as the Jacket and the Smock they are made for a wide range of coastal conditions and high performance sailing.
The Aroshell 3 layer fabric is lightweight and durable. Combined with the Zithane lower reinforced panels that have been tested and developed on the Volvo Ocean race, they keep high traffic areas drier for longer.
Top Features we Love
-XWR upper body for comfort, stretch and high breathability
-Gusseted chest with 2-way zipper access for easy relief
-Rear spine panelling
-Zithane lightweight abrasion resistant panels
Available in Black Anthracite
Really good selection of rope sizes, delivered speedily. Great idea to put the offcuts to good use. Caused a few laughs when people realised what I'd ordered ;-)
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!
Love the fact they don’t leak.
You do need to squeeze to get liquid out. Which is so much better. Don’t lose liquid etc.
nice size and robust
Great for when it’s not too cold. But is windy and wet. Needing to stay dry on top.
Very easy to install. May need some additional sealing for complete water-tightness.
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!
Excellent fit for a topaz. Great service on collection.
Perfect
Love this bag. Great wet area within it as well.
Excellent to use as for a birthday gift to family members keen on sailing
Currently 2 weeks into an Eastern Mediterranean trip with these shoes. Grip is great and they drain really well. Comfort is brilliant… as long as you take the right size. I followed the measurement guidelines and they work well. Highly recommend shoe!
Quick despatch and a good quality product. Moves smoothly along the boom.
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
Reeves really easily, jams well and excellent grip
I bought the burgee and clip for a Hartley 12 and found downwind sailing much easier single handed. The clip came with the screws so it was a 10 minute job including dropping the mast. Website worked well again and the items were delivered quickly so a good job all round.
