Zhik Mens Elite Shorts
A true expression of what sailors need from a high performance short. Designed to keep you dry, the no compromise three-layer, four-way stretch waterproof fabric prevents water ingress from any wet surface, maintaining comfort and flexibility all day long. A redesigned cut with a tapered race fit, elasticated waist and high back panel ensures maximum wind, water and UV protection while keeping loose fabric to a minimum to reduce the risk of snagging.
Built to last, these shorts pull technology from the family of aramid fibers to create a composite seat that will stand up to the rigouts of non-slip decks. Zippered thigh pockets ensure essentials can be stowed safely while a convenient belt/hanging loop allows you to store your shorts easily while reducing drying times.
Features:
- High back panel - to protect the rear lumbar from wind and water ingress
- Zippered thigh pocket - to safely store items
- 4-way high stretch, breathable and waterproof material
- Abrasion-resistant Aramid composite seat and crotch panel - for optimal durability
- XWR Eco-friendly Water-Repellent coating - breaks wind chill
