As summer has finally arrived here in the UK we thought we would show you our summer sailing clothing top picks.
Protecting yourself from the elements whilst on the water is essential, not only for your comfort but also for your performance if racing.
Here at Sailing Chandlery we stock a wide range of summer sailing clothing items from Zhik, Gill and Rooster. Each have their own individual benefits but we are bringing you our top picks.
We are breaking our summer sailing clothing guide down from head to toe.
They say your head temperature is important, whether you're trying to keep warm in the colder months, or trying to keep cool on those warmer days.
Most people tend to head out on the water for extended periods of time, whether you are racing or off for a social cruise. Keeping the sun off your head in the summer will save you a headache the next day for sure.
At Sailing Chandlery we stock sailing caps, visors and a broad brimmed hat. View all of our sailing hats.
Below are three of the most popular for this years summer sailing clothing top picks.
A simple and effective way to cover your body and keep the sun off. All of our rash vests and UPF50+ rated.
We offer rash vests in short and long sleeve versions with our Zhik options being made from Repreve, an eco friendly material.
Rash vests are an excellent versatile bit of sailing clothing for your kit bag. They can be worn by themselves on warmer days, and also underneath your wetsuit on the colder days.
No summer sailing clothing guide would be complete without covering sailing gloves. On warmer days you want sailing gloves that'll protect your hands but are also lightweight so your hands don't get too hot.
A firm summer sailing clothing favourite here at Sailing Chandlery, the new Zhik Microfleece X wetsuit. Made from Yulex rubber this is a fantastic new top of the range wetsuit and top combo that'll keep you warm, protected and comfortable for those longer summer days on the water.
In warmer months you want sailing footwear that protects your feet but also allows them to stay cool.
We love these three options below which will be the perfect addition to your summer sailing clothing and kit bag.
Our team are always happy to answer questions you might have about your sailing clothing and the best options for your type of watersports activity. Get in touch today and we'll make recommendations based on our experience.
really happy with these! the thick material means that I will be warm whilst sailing, and the 3 finger coverage allows mobility and warmth on the water. the added grip will really help on the heavy wind reaches, can't wait to test them out this weekend. shipping was really quick, with a sweet included in my order thank you.
As always, great stock, quick delivery, perfect, thank you
The footprint of these is much more than standard trolley wheels so they roll on sand much easier.
These Falker Burgees are essential for our training fleet, giving an instant indication of apparent wind direction.
Made of stainless steel they do not corrode, and are easy to fit into the mast bracket.
It is a shame the sail part is not available as a spare as this part does not last forever, unlike the ss frame.
Nice product.
Arrived quickly and fits very well
Fast, efficient service and the lightweight trolley is perfect for my needs.
We needed to change the size and it looks like they will change the Hikers for a size up. Thank you very much
Thank you Sailing Chandlery for delivering my new sailing watch.
An excellent product and decent value.
Service was great, delivery was quick and item was good quality.
These are excellent launching trolley wheels. Much better quality than the cheaper 'knock-off' ones on eBay! It took a couple of minutes to take off my old ones and fit these
Recently bought these as a birthday present for my dad. Order arrived super speedy (even with a treat of love hearts in it). The fit and quality is great, he really loved them
Great service
The wheels are exactly what I ordered. Delivery was immediate from the store and they arrived exactly when promised. 100% - job well done!
Excellent fast service from this company. Very good price for the Parka & free shipping. As a Motorhome & dog owner I bought the Parka to use when these activities frequently get cold & wet! I haven't had cause to use it yet. I've tried it on & it's just what I needed. It's a good long length (I'm 5ft 8") & does away with the need for waterproof trousers. Very handy zipped pockets & I like the fact that you can tighten up the wrist cuffs. I'm very pleased with my purchase & would certainly recommend Sailing Chandlery. Thank you.
Good quality product and easy to fit.
