Zhik Womens Performance Paddle Short
Zhik Womens Performance Paddle Short
The Womens Performance Paddle Shorts are purpose-built for high-output paddling and training across a wider range of conditions. Constructed from eco-conscious recycled spandex with 4-way stretch, they deliver unrestricted mobility, superior breathability, and certified UPF 50+ sun protection. A seamless seat design minimises chafing during long sessions, while the adjustable leg length allows a tailored fit. Lightweight and quick-drying, these shorts are optimised for comfort, agility, and endurance across all paddle disciplines.
Engineered for serious paddlers, the Zhik Womens Performance Paddle Shorts combine technical stretch fabrics with a streamlined, athlete-driven design. Developed in partnership with elite paddle athletes, they feature a seamless seat panel that eliminates friction and discomfort during long hours on the water, ensuring you stay focused on performance.
Crafted from recycled polyamide with 4-way stretch, the shorts move naturally with the body, maintaining flexibility without compromising durability. The lightweight fabric is highly breathable and fast-drying, helping regulate body temperature in hot conditions and during high-intensity sessions.
