The Zhik Tech Top range may seem very confusing and vast from afar but it can be broken down into 3 simple sections. Minimal Warmth, Great Warm and Max Warmth.
In this article we explain a few of our favourite items from the Zhik sailing top range.
The Spandex Top is also known as a rash vest or a base layer. These are most commonly worn under wetsuits to prevent chafing from zips and seams. Zhik has introduced UPF 50+ Sun Protection to their range so this can be worn on the warmest days on the water giving you excellent protection. The Zhik Spandex top is made from recycled materials and is also very breathable and unrestrictive.
The Hydrophobic Top is one of Zhik's most popular tops that can be found in sailing bags worldwide. It's one of our favourites too being the most commonly used item from my kit bag. This top is very versatile and can be used under a wetsuit or as a top layer on warmer days.
Another popular option for UK conditions between May and September is the Microfleece top range. These are neoprene sailing tops which help to lock in the heat.
They are thin but reliable and provide excellent warmth considering the thickness and flexibility they are made with.
Superwarm X is the best and most advanced Zhik wetsuit top available with 4-way stretch and 3D body mapping for the best and most dynamic fit. ZiBand wrist seals eliminate water flushing up your arms and help to create a seal with the Superwarm gloves for ultimate water protection in the cold.
The Superwarm X top also has a hydrophobic fleece lining inside which helps to regulate your body temperature taking moisture away from your body keeping you warm.
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.
