Zhik Women's Eco Spandex Short Sleeve Sailing Top – UPF 50+ Repreve Recycled Nylon 240 g/m²

Zhik Women's Eco Spandex Short Sleeve Sailing Top – UPF 50+ Repreve Recycled Nylon 240 g/m²

The Zhik Women's Eco Spandex Short Sleeve Sailing Top is a lightweight technical performance garment designed for sailing, watersports and active outdoor activities. Combining Repreve recycled nylon with high-stretch construction, UPF 50+ sun protection and breathable perforated side panels, it provides comfort, flexibility and coverage during active use.

The ergonomic 3D body yoke allows the garment to adapt naturally to body movement, while the super-soft, cooling fabric provides a comfortable second-skin feel. Flat seams, raw hems and reinforced stitching support flexibility and durability during repeated wear.

Repreve Recycled Nylon Performance Fabric

The Eco Spandex Short Sleeve Top is manufactured using Repreve recycled nylon with elastane for flexibility and stretch recovery. The supplied specifications describe recycled nylon as the primary material, with elastane also identified in the fabric construction.

The fabric has a documented weight of 240 g/m² and is designed to maintain softness, flexibility and shape retention during repeated use.

UPF 50+ Sun Protection

The performance fabric provides UPF 50+ ultraviolet protection, helping reduce UV exposure through areas covered by the garment during sailing and outdoor activities.

The short-sleeve construction provides upper-body coverage while allowing freedom of movement during active use.

4-Way Stretch and Shape Recovery

The top incorporates four-way stretch fabric designed to move in multiple directions. This flexible construction supports natural movement during sailing manoeuvres, watersports and other physical activities.

The high-stretch material also provides excellent shape recovery, allowing the garment to retain its flexible, body-adaptive fit during repeated wear.

Several supplied variations specify elasticity exceeding 200%, including Platinum sizes XS, S, M and XL, and White sizes XS, S, M, L and XL.

Ergonomic 3D Body Yoke

The garment features an advanced 3D body yoke that follows natural body movement. Its shaped construction provides a close, second-skin feel while supporting unrestricted flexibility.

Perforated Side Panels for Breathability

Perforated panels are integrated into the sides of the garment to enhance airflow and ventilation.

These breathable sections improve comfort during active sailing, watersports and warm-weather outdoor activities.

Super-Soft Cooling Fabric

The top features a super-soft fabric texture with a cooling feel against the skin. This finish enhances comfort during extended wear and active movement.

Flat Seams for Reduced Irritation

Flat seams help minimise friction and irritation where the garment contacts the skin. The smooth seam construction supports comfortable use during repeated movement.

Raw Hem Sleeves and Neckline

Raw hem finishes at the sleeves and neckline help preserve flexibility and comfort. This construction allows the stretch fabric to move naturally without unnecessary restriction at the garment edges.

Reinforced Seams and Seam Ends

Reinforced stitching improves durability in areas exposed to repeated stretching and movement. Reinforced seam ends provide additional strength at stitching termination points.
