There is nothing worse than going sailing for a second day and putting yourself into a cold wetsuit from the previous day. It ruins your day and makes you cold before you even start!
Introducing Zhik Microfleece X - a wetsuit that's designed for use in the UK between April and September this is a 1mm thick wetsuit with a fast drying hydrobase inner that wicks moisture while also being super soft.
I love my Microfleece wetsuit, it's unbelievably warm for a very thin wetsuit with excellent flexibility. Being a skiff suit you can take advantage of layering and adjust your other layers to suit the conditions on the day. Sometimes I will wear this with a rash vest, other times I will wear a hydrophobic fleece top to hold a little more warmth closer to my body.
The skiff suit dries quickly because the key panels which sit close to your body are lined with an improved Hydrobase material which provides extreme thermal insulation and is very quick drying.
Zhik have another variation of the Microfleece wetsuit which they call the V. This is designed to be a similar wetsuit to the X but comes with less features and a lower price point.
You can see all of our sailing wetsuits on our website.
It’s great- love it for my open water swimming.
Fits everything in.
Super fast delivery and friendly
Sticky back peels off easily and glue seems strong. Quite possibly this is the same product as supplied in the pre-cut kits for the ILCA mast bottom sections?
Makes a lot of sense to use sacrificial strips to slow down wear on the mast and gel coat.
Better value to buy several meters of this one and with care and a sharp blade you can cut desired lengths by wrapping around the mast and cutting neatly.
Replacement laser block arrived very quickly. Part was exactly the same as the original and I was back on the water without missing a weekend. Great service.
Very good quality cover, should protect my granddaughter’s boat for many seasons to come, thanks.
This looks more like a proper hold all.
Great, speedy service and quality product. Thank you
Well thought out kit bag with a large internal compartment and small mesh pockets inside and out. The wet compartment is really useful. Appears to be well made and the strap is comfy over the shoulder. Easily packed in my winter gear plus a few spare tops etc but if you like to carry multiple winter wetsuits or have lots of spares you may want to go for a larger 90l bag.
Great for work at sea and lesuire
