Not long now until the new Zhik 170 dinghy boots land at Sailing Chandlery, we can't wait to see them and the rest of the new Zhik dinghy sailing boots range.
If you want to get your hands on a pair of the Zhik boots and be one of the first then why not pre order with us, as soon as we have them we'll dispatch straight to your door step.
So, the new Zhik 170 sailing boot, is the evolution of the very popular summer sailing wetsuit boot the Zhik 160 sailing boot. The 160 has been very popular, especially through the summer months.
We already know that Zhik test all of their products with their World class sailor teams who include World and Olympic champions, these sailing boots would have been through a rigourous testing, feedback and improvement cycle to ensure the right product is launched first time.
The key things we think are going to make a big difference, apart from a colour scheme we love, are:
Traditionally Zhik dinghy boots and sailing shoes have come up small and we're always dealing with exchanges. We don't yet know how they are going to fair against the exisiting boot sizing but one of the first things we'll be doing is trying them on to let you know.
Other boots launching in 2019 from Zhik:
As always, if you have questions about the Zhik 170 sailing boot, or any of the other boots or products Zhik are releasing this year then please do get in touch.
New jib sheets are good to hold, do not twist up and hold well in the cam cleats.
Really good kicker at a reasonable price, delivered well packaged up and quickly
I made a mistake on my order and it was put right at zero cost to me ! Amazing !
I’ll certainly be back
Product exactly what I wanted
Good cover, made of a thick tough material and fits the boat well. The drawstring really helps tighten it around the boat and keep the rain and dirt out! There is enough extra space under it to fit your mast and boom on a deck tidy under it. Looks great in the club berths!
Very happy with the complete set of wheels with pins & washers - all in excellent condition & arrived as scheduled. Thank you.
Works well, towing noise considerably reduced and no further damage to underside of gunwales.
These are a revelation compared to the silly key ring type pin. So easy to use making rigging that bit quicker and easier! Great service as always from Sailing Chandlery A*
Excellent service and prompt delivery.
Best on the market!
Our son broke the sheave in his ILCA traveller block. I ordered the full set, which arrived the next day - absolutely brilliant service, sensible price and a quality product
Bought these to fit to the under boom sliders on a Super Spars boom to use for the main sheet. Block is compact and fits close to the underside of the boom keeping main sheet as close to boom as possible.
Quickly delivered from Sailing Chandlery.
I’d not realised that my previous boom was a problem until it became rather banana shaped. The Holt replacement is just the ticket and was delivered promptly. Good value for the money.
Excellent product and prompt delivery
I bought these for summer dinghy sailing as I found my short fingered leather gloves were getting uncomfortable and I needed some protection for the tips of my fingers. I have only worn them once but was very impressed. They fitted nicely, didn’t get soggy and I didn’t notice any discomfort.
Easy to put on and adjust and fits well. I went for a larger size than the size chart suggested as I was the top end of the medium measurement with a wetsuit and spray top on adding a bit extra. The only thing that I feel lets it down is the packing it comes in, I would have liked something like the breathable bag the Rooster buoyancy aids come in.
