Last weekend was the first time I've dusted off the Superwarm to go sailing this year, I had my Zhik Superwarm Skiff suit on during bank holiday Monday sailing as the temperature had dropped, it was windy and there was plenty of spray across the River.
Earlier in the year Zhik introduced their new Superwarm ranges and we were excited to be one of the first retailers in the World to showcase the sailing wetsuits and tops at the RYA Dinghy Show.
The release was a big change for the popular Zhik Superwarm and Zhik Microfleece wetsuit ranges with the introduction of an X and V version splitting the target market down the middle.
We won't go into detail here but you can read all about X vs V on an article from earlier in the year - https://www.sailingchandlery.com/blogs/product-information/x-vs-v-the-new-zhik-wetsuits
As a quick overview, X is the standard specification we've come to love from Zhik and V is a more budget wetsuit with less features, still a great product. You could also think of X as a championship product and V as a club sailor product. If you've had a Superwarm product before 2018 then you should go with X.
If you've not worn a Zhik Superwarm product before you're probably wondering why you should buy one. You might also be looking at the price tag thinking it's more expensive that other wetsuits.
Here are some reasons you should buy:
In terms of the most popular Zhik Superwarm products, in 2017 we saw a clear patten that for every four skiff suits we sold a top. The skiff suit is by far the most popular Zhik Superwarm product and that continues today but is balanced across the X and V range with the Superwarm V slightly ahead.

Now here is a Superwarm product you should definitely have, these winter sailing gloves were due earlier in the year but we didn't get them until May missing the colder months.
Zhik Superwarm Gloves are going to fill a huge hole in the market of a glove that's warm, keeps water out and has superb grip.
We love these and think they'll start flying off
the shelves very soon as the weather starts to turn.
Here is a closer look at some of the features.
Zhik Superwarm X tops can add an extra layer of protection against the elements, they're great at keeping the spray and wind out and will happily sit over the top of a skiff suit to complete your package.

As explained above, the superwarm skiff suit is the most popular product and the X has the best features to keep you warm during winter.

Perfect for the job!
These were recommended to put on over my Gill dry suit.
Bought a size bigger. We’re a bit tight but getting better, easy to pull on and off with the heel tab. Good soles and grip well on my board. My feet are so much warmer so I can go out most of the year.
Rope offcut easily ordered, as described, and prompt delivery. Good service all round
Delivered very promptly and well packaged, worth the shipping charge to not have to fetch it. Haven't sailed with it yet but have rigged it with the outhaul fittings and everything seems fine.
It is a good buoyancy-aid it has a nice size pocket and is really comfortable to wear. They also have fast delivery and great customer support thanks Jason.
I bought these hoping they be ok as prizes for our Topper Traveller, but was concerned they wouldn’t be robust given the price (in which case the 3 sailors in the family would get them).
I was happy when they arrived. They are more robust than I thought, and super lightweight, but with a grippy palm part. They’ll be great for use in the summer on their own (lighter than neoprene) but robust enough to protect hands, but also good enough to be used as a base layer in the winter.
Happy that we were able to use as prizes.,
It’s stretchy and can tie in knots.
Does the job
It’s blue, has an open bit at the top and holds stuff. Yet to try the dry feature.
Great service, quick turn around for the job.
nice neat job when it arrived. Would not hesitate to recommend to further members at our club. Well done 10 out of 10
I mistakenly ordered the wrong quick release pin for my Laser vang. Sailing Chandlery very kindly agreed to replace for the one I needed. Swapped out very quickly with no fuss.
Just brilliant, exactly what I needed and good quality. Fits perfectly. Fast delivery and usual great service.
Thank you, highly recommended
I use this tape to repair waterproof jackets and it is as strong and waterproof as many other alternatives and much cheaper :)
This cover fits easily over the boat with masts and boom placed on a set of spar holders. There is a neat velco opening to bring out a bowline to secure to the trolley.
A new innovation surprise is having clips on both sides of the cover. You can unclip from whichever side you are on.
Sailing Chandlery have listened to feedback from a previous purchase of the older design. Remains to be seen how it weathers, how breathable and water-proof it all is, but looking v smart from new.
Probably the most comfortable visor I’ve worn. I put it to the test in Dubai last week, it never budged, and wasn’t too tight or hot. The little clip gives added reassurance that you won’t loose it. I’m very pleased with the purchase.
