Zhik’s new Cell Vest – a versatile midlayer for on and offshore
For warmth on and off the water, this new stylish slim fit Cell Vest is perfect as an extra layer. Inside the vest contains Repreve®, a quick drying 100% recycled, breathable synthetic insulation fill that provides high warmth with low bulk.
With a fleece lined collar and handwarmer pockets, there are two useful internal stash pockets for sun glasses and beanies.
It is made with fused core baffling to bond the insulation pocket seams. Using bonded rather than stitched quilting means increased water and wind resistance, making the Cell Vests ideal for a range of outdoor activities in addition to boating.
“Sustainability is another key pillar of Zhik’s philosophy. When we source textiles we do full due diligence, following the supply chain back to the original yarn suppliers,”says Drue Kerr Zhik Head of Design and Production “Repreve are far above the rest in terms of supply chain transparency, with an outstanding product and lead the world for certified and traceable 100 per cent recycled performance fibres.
Embedding proprietary tracer technology into each fibre enables its exact origins to be traced and verified. The yarn is also sourced and manufactured in every major textile region across the planet, minimising the need for transport.”
The Cell Vest is available in Anthracite and Platinum in mens sizes S – XXL.
