Zhik Deckbeater Shorts 

STYLE: ZHIKTEX II, mid-rise snug fit

SIZE: Unisex XL [please see photos for lay-flat measurements]

Specialized protective shorts designed for sailing, yachting, and paddle sports. They are used to prevent discomfort and bruising during long hours spent sitting on hard surfaces, hiking over toerails, or grinding on keelboats.

Key uses and features include:

• Seat Padding: Featuring perforated, contoured neoprene padding in the seat to soften the ride and reduce fatigue on hard, non-skid decks. The padding is perforated for rapid water drainage and breathability.

• Abrasion Resistance: The rear panels are reinforced with ZhikTex™, an extremely tough, flexible fabric designed to withstand friction against the boat deck.

• Sun Protection & Stretch: The front is constructed from 4-way stretch, UPF 50+ spandex, offering excellent mobility and sun protection.

• Versatile Layering: They are a crossover product designed to be worn on their own, layered over a wetsuit to protect it from wear and tear, or worn under foul-weather gear.
