Over the past few months Zhik have launched their new kids sailing clothing range.
The new wetsuit range includes a steamer, long john wetsuit, shortie wetsuit and also ¾ hikers with pads build into the wetsuit.
Zhik have also launched two new sailing tops, a smock and also a neoprene top they’re calling the Neo Sailing Top.
We’re pleased to say that we now have all of these items in stock and ready to ship to you. Perfect timing for the sailing season just starting. Check out our Zhik Juniors page.
As well as the new items we also have the existing kids items such as the Hydrophobic Fleece top.
Zhik took a totally different approach to designing and making the new juniors range. Usually they go all out to create the best possible product and then add the price tag. As we know kids all grow so quickly so the items are likely to have a short period of use, so price was key this time.
The Zhik design team were set a target price and they had to create a product which would match. Taking some ideas and features from the proven and tested adults range the following products have emerged from the factory:
One of the highlight products from our point of view is the Sailing Smock. It’s neoprene neck and wrist seals will help to keep your little one dry and warm. The draw string helps to keep heat in too preventing water from rushing up inside.
Below are some photos of the products, watch this space for more news on the Zhik junior range soon. If you have any questions in the mean time then please feel free to get in touch.

Really speedy dispatch after easy buying process.
Great to see minimal packaging used to help the environment.
Great price. We'll informed with delivery updates. Once arrived it was better than I expected. Great cover well made
The breathable poly cotton cover is very good quality heavy material. Fits the boat well.
Delivery very prompt.
The twine was exactly as described and perfect for the job.
Responded immediately and with excellent knowledge and customer service. Fast delivery. Can’t recommend enough!
the product is perfect main sail repaired ready to go
Excellent strong lightweight clips ideal for swapping out flags easily
to be used for trapeze lines - hopefully will withstand UV better than other cheaper versions.....
Ordered and it arrived within 2 days.. Superb personalised service. Would highly recommend this website. Thank you.
Super service, dispatched next day and arrived in time... Fantastic service.
These blocks are a nice balance between quality and weight - I needed something light for jib sheet clew blocks as I didn’t want too much weight hanging on the corner, and it needed to run smoothly (and stay running smoothly) - these fit bill nicely. The sheave is also more protected than other blocks where the edges can get chewed up where they hit the mast.
Used the Dyneema to make soft shackles. Spliced easily but was noticeably “tighter” when pulling through the tails than I found for similar 4mm Dyneema. Glad for the set of Fids. However I ordered the black colour and whilst it was easy to mark up white Dyneema for planning the splices I couldn’t see the pen marks I made on the black rope. I suppose I should have thought of this and got a white marker! Overall very happy.
Easy to order and promptly sent. Used the 4mm Dyneema to make soft shackles - my first attempts - found it easy to splice and it has made some useful and strong shackles.
