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
Nice-looking bung, all in one piece. No more looking for the bung when you have let it drain from the last time, and bought this to create a second drain socket in my Solo.
They have good paddings
It fits exactly fine to laser pico. Straps are very usefull. Hole at the back helps you store your upper mast easily under the cover. Looks very durable. Delivery was very fast. Thanks
Product as described and very prompt delivery
Usual harken good stuff
Easy to find, quick dispatch, on the boat now.
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.
Fantastic price for first class quality
They work well
Fantastic product. Toasty feel
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.
