Product Information

  • Zhik Superthermal Hydrobase Pant - Unisex

    Warmth starts at the layer against your skin. The Zhik Superthermal Hydrobase Pant is the baselayer that goes on first, under a drysuit, wetsuit or salopettes, and it is doing more work than most people realise on a cold day.

    The fabric is Zhik's own Superthermal Hydrobase, a knitted composite of two fibres that do opposite jobs. The polypropylene next to your skin is hydrophobic, so it pushes moisture away rather than holding it. The polyester on the outer face is hydrophilic, so it draws that moisture across the surface where it can evaporate. The result is that you stay dry during the hard work of hiking and tacking, and you do not get the cold, clammy feeling afterwards when you stop.

    That matters most under a drysuit, where sweat has nowhere to go. A cotton or basic synthetic layer leaves you sitting in it for the rest of the session.

    The knit is lightweight with a thermal grid structure, so it insulates without bulk under a suit. Four-way stretch means nothing binds behind the knee when you are hiking, and flatlock seams sit flat with no chafing on a long beat. The cuffs are a water shedding stretch weave, which cuts down flushing at the ankle when water gets past your boots, and the back of the waist sits higher for coverage when you bend forward. There is an antibacterial treatment in the fabric too, which keeps the smell under control after a full weekend of racing.

    Pair it with the matching Superthermal Hydrobase Top for a full baselayer set.
