DESCRIPTION
Designed for demanding dinghy sailors facing cold and wet conditions, the Adult Front Zip Drysuit is engineered to perform when it matters most. Made with our premium 3-layer Vecta fabric, it combines a waterproof and breathable outer with a fully seam-sealed interior to deliver maximum weather protection without compromising mobility or layering comfort.
German-engineered TIZIP® waterproof zippers provide secure closure with a low-profile asymmetric design that eliminates bunching across the chest. Latex neck and wrist seals create a watertight seal that stands up to the harshest conditions, while internal suspenders allow you to dial in a precise, balanced fit.
Built to last, the suit incorporates 450D reinforced panels in the seat, knees and foot area to withstand abrasion and wear. The streamlined cut reduces wind drag, and the integrated cargo pocket gives easy access to on-water essentials. Whether racing, training or exploring in extreme climates, this drysuit offers total immersion protection and all-day performance.

Surfski Lake Michigan… I purchased my Zhik Drysuit ***zhik.***/us/adult-drysuit-21.html earlier this spring and have been using it on and off for about six months. Yesterday, I put it to the ultimate test far beyond anything I ever expected. I was paddling my Epic V9 surfski on Lake Michigan in challenging conditions: water temperatures in the low 40s, air in the mid-40s, and a small craft advisory with waves up to 10 feet and plenty of side chop. I always dress for immersion, so underneath the dry suit I wore a 3 mm farmer John, a downy jacket, 5 mm booties, and 5 mm gloves, along with a Zhik lifejacket. During one of my runs downwind, a wave crashed over me and completely destroyed my surfski, breaking it into several pieces. I released the tether connecting me to the boat and eventually had to abandon what was left and swim for shore. I was in the water for roughly 30 minutes before reaching safety. I’m fully convinced that the only reason I was able to stay functional and make it back was because of what I was wearing. The dry suit and the insulation layers underneath kept me warm enough to keep swimming and thinking clearly. The lifejacket kept me stable in the rough water. Without the combination of the Zhik dry suit, wetsuit, and PFD, I don’t believe the outcome would have been the same. This experience was a dramatic reminder that proper gear isn’t optional, it’s life-saving. The Zhik dry suit performed far beyond expectations, and I’m incredibly grateful for its durability, design, and reliability when it mattered most
