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.

Perfect fit and functionality. Love them

The shorts are just super! Excellent comfortable fit. There is no seam at the back, it is very convenient. The buttons on the waist do not unfasten spontaneously (with shorts from other manufacturers this is a problem!). The shorts are waterproof, easy to wash, dry quickly. An indispensable thing on a yacht trip. I will buy the same for my husband.

I love my new Zhik Elite Shorts! They fit great! Tried them last Sunday. They have extra stretch to put over my neoprene hiking pants.

Ladies, go up a size! These are tiny. I’m a true size 12 and these shorts are too small for me. I put them on before going out for 3hrs of harbour razing so by the time we were back on land, had worn them too much to return. The waistband is way too tight for sitting, reaching, bending and folding hours on end. Sailing shorts should be comfortable - these are anything but. They cut me in half.
