The MicrofleeceTM X Skiff Suit is the cutting edge of sailing wetsuits. It boasts a unique combination of advanced design and environmental sustainability. Natural Yulex® foam gives this neoprene-free wetsuit all the performance you expect from the MicrofleeceTM X range, with a sustainable foundation. The suit's quick-dry fleece lining also contains heat-retaining graphene to provide the best possible thermal insulation and comfort. With advanced elongation properties within our neoprene, we provide improved flexibility and ease of movement.
The premium graphene-infused quick dry fleece lining maximises comfort and warmth on the water while minimising drying time between uses. Due to its natural hydrophobic properties, it repels water, keeping the suit lighter when on the water, while increasing body heat retention. The thermal properties of graphene are superior to those of other inner linings because graphene heats up and stores heat faster than other materials.
Integrated Yulex® foam is composed of hardy plant-based materials derived from organic rubber sources. The product was designed to substitute the toxic manufacturing process of neoprene which has been used to create most of the planet's wetsuits for decades. With this natural alternative, all performance qualities are matched or exceeded so you don't have to choose between performance and environmental impact on the planet. The Yulex® natural rubber products provide optimal performance, are deforestation-free, and are proven equal, or better to neoprene and geoprene in all applications.
The X range contains the most essential features of Zhik, along with additional ZhikTexTM II 3D warp knit reinforcement technology. This provides additional protection and durability. Drainage holes at the ankle expels trapped water, and ready-to-cut reinforcement stitches allow for leg length adjustment, making this our most flexible and durable suit yet.
Featuring a 3D body-mapped design, specific seam placement, and a wider stretch neck opening, the X Range has an updated fit that increases comfort.
YULEX® Foam Neoprene
The world’s first natural, plant-based replacement for neoprene. Originally created in partnership with Patagonia for their first ever neoprene-free wetsuit, Yulex Foam has been adopted by many surf and watersport brands. It has won multiple surf industry and environmental awards, and received international recognition. Yulex Foam is now the first choice by global brands looking for high performing, responsible replacements for neoprene. Now found in all new Zhik Microfleece X Wetsuit products. Yulex® is a registered trademark of Yulex, LLC.
