As summer has finally arrived here in the UK we thought we would show you our summer sailing clothing top picks.
Protecting yourself from the elements whilst on the water is essential, not only for your comfort but also for your performance if racing.
Here at Sailing Chandlery we stock a wide range of summer sailing clothing items from Zhik, Gill and Rooster. Each have their own individual benefits but we are bringing you our top picks.
We are breaking our summer sailing clothing guide down from head to toe.
They say your head temperature is important, whether you're trying to keep warm in the colder months, or trying to keep cool on those warmer days.
Most people tend to head out on the water for extended periods of time, whether you are racing or off for a social cruise. Keeping the sun off your head in the summer will save you a headache the next day for sure.
At Sailing Chandlery we stock sailing caps, visors and a broad brimmed hat. View all of our sailing hats.
Below are three of the most popular for this years summer sailing clothing top picks.
A simple and effective way to cover your body and keep the sun off. All of our rash vests and UPF50+ rated.
We offer rash vests in short and long sleeve versions with our Zhik options being made from Repreve, an eco friendly material.
Rash vests are an excellent versatile bit of sailing clothing for your kit bag. They can be worn by themselves on warmer days, and also underneath your wetsuit on the colder days.
No summer sailing clothing guide would be complete without covering sailing gloves. On warmer days you want sailing gloves that'll protect your hands but are also lightweight so your hands don't get too hot.
A firm summer sailing clothing favourite here at Sailing Chandlery, the new Zhik Microfleece X wetsuit. Made from Yulex rubber this is a fantastic new top of the range wetsuit and top combo that'll keep you warm, protected and comfortable for those longer summer days on the water.
In warmer months you want sailing footwear that protects your feet but also allows them to stay cool.
We love these three options below which will be the perfect addition to your summer sailing clothing and kit bag.
Our team are always happy to answer questions you might have about your sailing clothing and the best options for your type of watersports activity. Get in touch today and we'll make recommendations based on our experience.
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
