Zhik INS200 Waterproof Sailing Shorts – 3-Layer Vecta TPU Fabric with 450D Oxford Nylon Reinforcement

Zhik INS200 Waterproof Sailing Shorts – 3-Layer Vecta TPU Fabric with 450D Oxford Nylon Reinforcement

The Zhik INS200™ Waterproof Sailing Shorts are technical marine shorts developed for coastal sailing in wet conditions. Combining waterproof and breathable 3-layer Vecta fabric with reinforced construction and practical storage, they provide weather protection, durability and comfort during active use on the water.

The streamlined ergonomic design incorporates a waterproof and breathable TPU membrane, fully sealed seams, 450D Oxford nylon reinforcement and an 80/20 DWR finish. Articulated cargo pockets, laser-cut drainage openings and fused leg hems add functionality for extended sailing sessions.

3-Layer Vecta Waterproof and Breathable Fabric

The INS200™ Shorts are constructed from 3-layer Vecta fabric designed to provide waterproof protection while allowing breathability.

The technical material is intended for coastal sailing, helping protect against water exposure without unnecessarily restricting comfort or movement.

TPU Waterproof and Breathable Membrane

The fabric incorporates a TPU membrane that provides waterproof and breathable performance.

This membrane forms part of the 3-layer Vecta construction and contributes to the shorts' suitability for wet marine environments.

Fully Sealed and Reinforced Seams

The shorts feature fully sealed seams designed to protect against water penetration through stitched areas.

Critical seam junctions are reinforced for additional durability during repeated movement and active sailing use.

80/20 Durable Water Repellent Finish

The outer fabric incorporates an 80/20 DWR water-repellent treatment.

This surface finish provides an additional layer of water repellency, complementing the waterproof TPU membrane and sealed seam construction.

Water-Resistant Zipper Construction

Water-resistant zipper construction provides additional protection against moisture exposure.

The shorts combine this feature with sealed seams and waterproof fabric for use in wet sailing conditions.

450D Oxford Nylon Reinforcement

High-wear areas are reinforced with durable 450D Oxford nylon.

The supplied specifications identify reinforcement on the seat and pocket areas, helping improve resistance to abrasion during frequent contact with boat surfaces and equipment.

Two Articulated 3D Cargo Pockets

The INS200™ Shorts incorporate two articulated three-dimensional cargo pockets with zipper closures.

The shaped pocket construction provides practical storage while accommodating the ergonomic fit of the shorts.

Laser-Cut Drainage Openings

Laser-cut drainage openings allow water to escape from designated areas of the garment.

The drainage construction is particularly useful around the cargo pockets, where water may accumulate during sailing activities.

Fused Leg Hems

The leg openings feature fused hems designed to create smooth edges without unnecessary bulk.

This construction helps reduce irritation and maintain comfort during prolonged wear.

Ergonomic Shaped Waistband

A shaped waistband follows the body for a secure and comfortable fit.

The ergonomic construction supports freedom of movement during sailing and other active onboard tasks.

Plastic Snap Closure and Oversized Belt Loops

The waistband incorporates a plastic snap closure and oversized belt loops.

These features provide practical fastening and belt compatibility, complementing the shorts' functional marine design.

Designed for Coastal Sailing

The INS200™ Shorts are developed for sailors requiring waterproof protection, breathability and abrasion resistance in coastal environments.

The combination of reinforced panels, functional storage, drainage and ergonomic construction supports comfortable wear during extended sessions on the water.
