KEEP THE KIDS WARM

Zhik’s new junior hydrophobic fleece top and long pants are a performance garment and versatile mid-layer, that mirrors Zhik’s adult range.

Made from a plush, four-way stretch spandex fabic, with a soft thermal fleece inner layer, to provide warmth. The fabric has water repellent outer face that shields from splashes and spray, is wind repellent and breathable too.

Designed with an anatomic three dimensional fit for a comfortable and athletic fit, they can be layered under under a Zhik skiff suit, waterproof top or drysuit for additional insulation and warmth.

Available in junior sizes 8 – 14.

RRP: hydrophobic top: $75.00;

hydrophobic pants: $99.95.
