Over the next few months the water is going to be getting colder and you’re going to be searching for some warmer sailing clothing.
For the past few years the Zhik Superwarm wetsuit range has been leading the way using super stretch neoprene and other material technologies to keep sailors warm throughout the cold European winter. With unique and well designed features lots of sailors are seeing the benefit of Zhik Superwarm wetsuits and tops.
Even if you are only sailing a traditional sailing season until around the end of October we would certainly recommend investing in some Superwarm wetsuit kit. It will also be a massive benefit when you start sailing again in March too.
The Zhik Superwarm wetsuit range is currently available in a few different variations:
You heard it here first but there are also Superwarm wetsuit gloves coming in 2018, we’ve seen the samples and they are fantastic – come and see us at the Dinghy Show to buy a pair.
View the full range of Zhik Superwarm products on our website.
The important thing to note is that the Zhik Superwarm wetsuits and accessories are not only for sailors, in fact, we’ve sold loads of the steamers to kite surfers, surfers and body boarders. Depending on your type of watersport you may choose a different product to purchase.
By far the most popular product is the Superwarm skiff suit. Speaking to customers they like the flexibility of being able to keep their body warm, the water out, and being able to adjust the type of top based on conditions. If it’s blowing and really cold you’ll add a Superwarm top, if it’s warmer you might like a thinner top, something like an Orspan or Titanium top.
The steamer will keep all of the heat in and generally keep you a bit warmer as there is no space for the cold air or water to get in. This also has the benefit of being thinner around your stomach area compared to a top and skiff suit together.
At Sailing Chandlery we have a deal currently where if you buy a steamer, or skiff suit and top together then we’ll throw in a pair of Superwarm socks for free. This is on top of price reductions bringing the products below the Zhik RRP.

The Zihk Sailing kit bag is very well-made and much more practical than my rucksack. The ordering process was slick and the delivery was fast. I’m looking forward to my next sailing trip with this product. Good price too, thank you!

I recently purchased the Sprint 15 Trampoline Cover from Sailing Chandlery, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The cover is made from high-quality PVC material that feels durable and built to last, even in harsh weather conditions.
The fit on my Sprint 15 is absolutely perfect—it's snug and secure, ensuring that the trampoline stays protected from rain, sun, and dirt. The attention to detail, like reinforced edges and reliable fastenings, really sets this cover apart.
It’s clear that a lot of thought went into the design, making it both functional and easy to use. The vibrant blue color adds a nice touch and is easy to spot in the boat park.
Shipping was fast, and the customer service from Sailing Chandlery was top-notch. They kept me updated throughout the process and ensured a smooth transaction.
If you're looking for a reliable cover for your Sprint 15, I highly recommend this product. It's a fantastic investment to keep your boat in great shape!
The Topper rope pack arrived shortly after I ordered it. Very good service from Sailing Chandlery. I will fit it when I get home.
The sail numbers were simple to attach
Great value for money and swiftly delivered as always by Sailing Chandlery.
Very good sunglasses, I’ve just had eye surgery and was struggling with peripheral light sensitivity, these are great for that and will be terrific next season sailing.
Great to see these available again, much better quality and sensitivity than the alternatives
We have just purchased the Mersea twin Laser box trailer. Ordering the trailer, and adding the lid afterwards, was easy and straightforward with accurate lead times for its delivery. We paid for delivery to the South Coast and the trailer arrived bang on time along with other items we ordered. Fantastic customer service all round!
The trailer had its first trip this weekend, a 3hr drive on a mixture of town, country and motorway roads and it was a dream to tow - no noise save the odd rattle across potholes, easy to see in the car mirrors and very easy to connect and pull. It's also easy to manoeuvre two by just two people.
Our junior sailor was delighted by capacious box section with two access points and he was able to stow all of his kit to travel and then all covers, bags and kit whilst on the water today.
We're very pleased with the trailer - thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Good quality splicing tool, sensible price and swiftly delivered. Thank you
