Zhik has long been in high demand by the youth market, and its new evolution youth wetsuits are designed to bring younger sailors the same quality, comfort and flexibility as for adults.
The range includes the Youth Microfleece® Performance Skiff Suit, Wetsuit Pant and Top and the Youth Superwarm® Performance Skiff Suit andWetsuit. All incorporate the same high-quality aesthetics and technical specifications as the adult range.
A huge plus for parents, the range seamlessly integrates into Zhik’s adult sizing, ensuring that young sailors can transition smoothly into the adult range as they grow. Starting in sizes 10 through to 14, boys can move up to men’s XS and girls from size 12 to women’s XS sizes. Young sailors will benefit from a fast-drying, warm, soft fleece lining, while superior abrasion panels reduce wear and tear and prolong lifespan.
Years of knowledge has gone into the streamlined Microfleece® Performance range, which utilises 1/2mm thermal insulating neoprene, durable flatlock seam construction and targeted super stretch panelling, making the wetsuits ideal for moderate weather water sports.
The Superwarm® Performance Skiff Suit and high stretch Wetsuit bring all the same benefits, with the addition of keeping young sailors warmer in colder conditions. The suits are made from 2/3mm thermal insulating neoprene, waterproof glued and feature blind stitched seams, a Superwarm® fleece lining and targeted super stretch panelling.
The new youth range is available from www.zhik.com and all Zhik retailers.
