The new Zhik 470 dinghy boots are coming and we couldn't be more exited to see the new Zhik dinghy sailing boots range. They should arrive with us towards the end of February just in time for the RYA Dinghy Show.
If you want to get your hands on a pair 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.
So, the new Zhik 470 sailing boot, it's the evolution of the very popular Zhik 460 sailing boot. The 460 has by far been a popular dinghy boot especially with skiff sailors and those who want more feel to their sailing.
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 the amazing colour scheme, 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 existing 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 470 sailing boot, or any of the other boots or products Zhik are releasing this year then please do get in touch.
on time and on spec
easy to find what one is looking for
highly recommended
This was my first Zhik purchase having spent some time looking for a low cut boot for the summer and having used them a few times now, I'm really pleased with the boots. They offer great grip in the boat and on the slipway, are comfy to wear and provide good protection. As the guidance says, these come up small, so make sure you follow the guidance to measure and don't be surprised if the size you are ordering is one or two sizes bigger than your normal. I'm normally 8.5-9 and measured at a 10 so that's what I ordered and they are a snug fit. I'd need an 11 if wearing socks.
This spray lube really does the job. I've been warned that you need to make sure you don't spray where you are going to sit or tread as it's so slippery!
Excellent product excellent communication excellent seller
Purchased to replace my old version Zhik hiking pads. These are much better, more stable and fix in the position you want them to. Not cheap, but I am sure will give plenty of good service. Worked really well with some Zhik neoprene shorts on a warm day.
This is my second Microfleece Skiff Suit, the previous one gave nine years good service pretty much every week. Even in the winter I only resort to a thicker Zhik Skiff suit if it is sub 10 degrees. The old one got shredded by a stripped main sheet block split ring. The new suit is of good quality and more refined than the previous one. My only negative comment is the neck aperture is smaller than previous which makes getting your arms in and out a bit of a Houdini job, though I am perfecting the technique!
arrived neatly in a jiffy, thanks
These are simple are installed on my boat and worked last time I sailed.
arrived very quickly along with the new main sheet i ordered, the colours are spot on and match the colour of the main sheet i ordered, spent ages yesterday re roping my dzero and i have to say it looks incredible with the blue and black rope
arrived very quickly and the colour is spot on, exactly what i was looking for
I love this rope for trapeze adjusters, it grips into a Clamcleat really well.
Hard wearing and low stretch, perfect for kite bridal poles on my catamaran. Delivered quickly.
A well made cover that fits perfectly on my Dart - it has a five year guarantee so it will be interesting to see how it lasts.
Long enough to tie down a laser. Bright enough to see your boat in a boatyard. Does what it says on the tin.
Watch once set your very easy to operate. Arrived well packaged and on time.
