DESCRIPTION
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 fibres to create a composite seat that will stand up to the rigours 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.

Supercool deck shorts

Wore 4 days all-day straight for Caribbean regatta. Worked well, could use a little more flex in waist if used without a belt.

Sorts were well made with high quality materials. Unfortunately I ordered the wrong size so had to return them. the returns process was seamless and a new pair in the correct size ordered!

I’d been searching for shorts that let me focus on wind and tactics, not on my gear—then I found the Zhik Men’s Black Elite Shorts. Lightweight yet durable, they wick moisture instantly and won’t soak up water; you feel like you’re sailing on air. Even after five hours at sea, zero chafing. These shorts are my secret weapon for victory.

Great for any water sports and good for just wearing around. Perfect length and come with belt loops which make them useful as a dress short too,. My everyday go to short pant, no matter what the occasion.
