Some frequently asked questions that other customers have asked us about Zhik Wetsuits.
What makes Zhik wetsuits different from standard neoprene suits?
Zhik's most advanced wetsuits have moved beyond traditional neoprene entirely. Crafted from sustainable, plant-based Yulex® rubber, Zhik's X wetsuit collection offers superior thermal insulation, comfort, durability, and mobility while generating 80% fewer CO2 emissions than conventional neoprene wetsuits. On top of that, the fabric is infused with graphene, an advanced nanoscale material that can return up to 20% more body heat, keeping the wearer warmer for longer, regulating temperatures during low-intensity activity, and aiding the drying process. The result is a suit that is warmer, more flexible, and more sustainable than anything a standard neoprene construction can offer.
What is the Zhik wetsuit range, and which suit should I choose?
Zhik offer two core wetsuit families, designed for different conditions. They are the Zhik Microfleece and Zhik Superwarm. Here at Sailing Chandlery we focus on the X range of wetsuits which are the most technologically advanced versions, incorporating graphene-infused lining and sustainable Yulex® natural rubber. For most UK dinghy sailors, the Microfleece suit is the right choice for May to September search, with a Superwarm for the winter and start and end of season.
Which Zhik wetsuit do you recommend?
Our wetsuit recommendations go between the Zhik Microfleece X and Zhik Superwarm X but it depends on conditions. If you want one wetsuit for all year round the Zhik Superwarm X is the best choice. The Zhik Microfleece X is best for May to September sailing.
