Zhik Womens Microfleece Sailing Hiker Suit - Black

The Women’s Microfleece™ Hiker is Zhik’s first hiking wetsuit engineered specifically for female sailors. Built for performance in mild conditions, it offers an optimised 3D fit, durable abrasion resistance, and a refined hiking system with integrated removable pads. Reinforced in high-wear zones and adjustable throughout, this suit combines comfort, flexibility and locked-in hiking support to help you sail longer, harder, and with complete confidence.

Description:

This women’s Microfleece® Hiker has been specifically created for female hiking sailors in a market-first development. The design is an evolution of our successful gold medal winning hiking suits, combined with ongoing collaboration with world-renowned athletes spanning two decades. Each suit includes a range of ground-breaking features that will take performance to the next level. 
 
The Microfleece® Hiker's fit and function are integral to the female-focused design. Utilising our super stretch neoprene, flexibility is improved in key areas. However, stretch is reduced in areas where extra support and stability are required. This hiking suit combines a range of features such as an ergonomic 3D fit that provides unmatched flexibility. It also has extended ZhikTexTM II reinforcement areas to increase durability and prevent wear from ropes. In addition, internal silicone grippers secure the pads during intense movements. The ankle drainage holes expel trapped water, while a range of features allows for a customised fit. This includes adjustable leg length, with ready-to-cut reinforcement stitching, Velcro® shoulder straps, and a removable internal rear thigh pad to increase hiking height off the deck. 
  
Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, these suits will provide you with the performance and comfort you need to take your sailing to the next level.
