Zhik Womens Microfleece X Skiff Long John Wetsuit

The updated X Range showcases the most innovative sailing wetsuits available on the market, offering ultimate performance sustainably. The MicrofleeceTM X Skiff Suit is enhanced with advanced technologies, including graphene-infused fleece, which increases its thermal warmth and the temperature range it can be used in.

Yulex® foam replaces traditional and environmentally harmful neoprene without compromising performance. Featuring market-leading materials for additional elongation and abrasion resistance, the wetsuits provide superior manoeuvrability and durability, while their updated 3D body mapping provides greater comfort.

Features:

• Natural Yulex® foam construction
• Heat-retaining graphene-infused lining for optimal insulation
• Eco aqua glue reduces harmful chemicals
• Super stretch opening for easy donning and removal
• Flatlock seam construction with stress point tape
• Slimline thigh pocket
• High-rise seat and extended shin ZhikTexTM II reinforcement for durability and protection

The MicrofleeceTM X Skiff Suit is the cutting edge of sailing wetsuits. It boasts a unique combination of advanced design and environmental sustainability. Natural Yulex® foam gives this neoprene-free wetsuit all the performance you expect from the MicrofleeceTM X range, with a sustainable foundation. The suit's quick-dry fleece lining also contains heat-retaining graphene to provide the best possible thermal insulation and comfort. With advanced elongation properties within our neoprene, we provide improved flexibility and ease of movement.

The premium graphene-infused quick dry fleece lining maximises comfort and warmth on the water while minimising drying time between uses. Due to its natural hydrophobic properties, it repels water, keeping the suit lighter when on the water, while increasing body heat retention. The thermal properties of graphene are superior to those of other inner linings because graphene heats up and stores heat faster than other materials.

Integrated Yulex® foam is composed of hardy plant-based materials derived from organic rubber sources. The product was designed to substitute the toxic manufacturing process of neoprene which has been used to create most of the planet's wetsuits for decades. With this natural alternative, all performance qualities are matched or exceeded so you don't have to choose between performance and environmental impact on the planet. The Yulex® natural rubber products provide optimal performance, are deforestation-free, and are proven equal, or better to neoprene and geoprene in all applications.

The X range contains the most essential features of Zhik, along with additional ZhikTexTM II 3D warp knit reinforcement technology. This provides additional protection and durability. Drainage holes at the ankle expels trapped water, and ready-to-cut reinforcement stitches allow for leg length adjustment, making this our most flexible and durable suit yet.

Featuring a 3D body-mapped design, specific seam placement, and a wider stretch neck opening, the X Range has an updated fit that increases comfort.
