The team at Sailing Chandlery review the Zhik Neoprene Jacket   


Keep warm and protected even when you're soaking wet. Designed as an extra layer of protection, the jacket seamlessly goes right over your wetsuit, harness and PFD with its loose fit. Ideally suited for protection between sessions on the water, sitting on the coach boat or when on the boat ramp.

3mm thermal insulating neoprene providing warmth for the coldest conditions


Zhiktex™ II reinforced seat and elbows for durability


2 water resistant zippered side pockets for storage

ZHIK NEOPRENE HOODED JACKET

 

The Zhik Neoprene jacket is the perfect item to beat the cold in wet and windy conditions. Made from water and wind-resistant 3mm Superwarm neoprene, this hooded jacket is hugely versatile and styled for performance or casual wear.

Ideally suited to be worn over a wet wetsuit, harness and PFD when you are between races, sitting on the coach boat, in the boat park, or on the beach to keep you warm and protected in windy and cold conditions.

Packed full of features, this item is perfect for a variety of water sports.

The 3mm soft and flexible neoprene not only keeps you warm and protected but also allows the jacket to stretch to fit over other equipment and move with you with no restriction. To ensure longevity Zhik’s Zhiktex™ II reinforced panels are incorporated in the seat and arms to minimise wear. The form fitting hood with a high collar and adjustable toggles ensure the jacket fits securely when in high winds and stops water splashes from entering the jacket. The double headed zipper allows extra versatility to ensure a secure fit around the chest whilst also allowing harness loops and attachments to be exposed and accessible.
