Zhik has long led the way in the sailing youth market, and now brings a new edition of smock to market, ahead of a full new youth range, coming soon.

Helping young sailors stay on the water for longer, this new youth dinghy smock provides superior waterproof protection and warmth, and comes in blue and mauve, as well as original black.

With a PU membrane and fully taped seams throughout, adjustable collar, wrists and waist seals, the smock provides extra protection in wind and wet conditions.

To increase thermal insulation, the interior of the smock is lined with high quality fleece, keeping the most sensitive of necks comfortable.

Key for parents, the new smock and upcoming youth range seamlessly integrate into Zhik's adult sizing, ensuring that young sailors can transition smoothly into the adult range as they grow.

Starting from sizes 10 through 14, boys can transition into size XS Men's and girls from size 12 into XS Women's sizes.

Johnny Rodgers, Marketing Partnerships and Global Sponsorships Manager, said, "Our youth smock has always been a best seller and the new evolution has even more features that make sure time on the water is as fun, warm and comfortable for young sailors as can be."

Key features:

  • A high collar, with cord adjustment.
  • Neoprene waist band with adjustable velcro.
  • Taped seams for water protection.
  • Wrist adjustment to stop water flushing.
  • Waterproof membrane for superior water protection.
  • Fully lined with fleece for additional warmth.
