Paddle Pants and Shorts
Zhik paddle shorts and pants are designed for performance, protection, and comfort on the water. From Eco Spandex sun protection to Microfleece thermal insulation and padded Deckbeaters®, the range covers every condition so you can paddle harder, longer, and more comfortably.
Eco Spandex Shorts & Pants
Lightweight and flexible, Eco Spandex bottoms provide UPF 50+ sun protection with sustainable recycled fabrics. Perfect for warm-weather paddling, they deliver stretch, breathability, and unrestricted movement.
Performance Paddle Shorts
Engineered for paddlers, these shorts combine stretch fabrics with durability and, in padded versions, added protection for long sessions. They balance comfort, abrasion resistance, and freedom of movement.
Microfleece Pants & Shorts
When the temperature drops, Microfleece bottoms provide thermal insulation with flexibility. Designed for training and racing in cooler conditions, they keep paddlers warm without restricting mobility.
Deckbeaters®
Featuring padded, breathable panels, Deckbeater® shorts and pants reduce discomfort from hard seats and extended sessions. Compact and lightweight, they can be worn alone or under other gear.
Board Shorts
For casual paddling or crossover use, Zhik board shorts combine durability with quick-dry comfort and a relaxed fit.
Every design in the Zhik paddle bottoms range is athlete-tested for durability, comfort, and performance, giving paddlers confidence in all environments.
