Zhik Anthracite CST500 Technical Smock -

The Zhik CST500™ technical smock provides exceptional protection from the elements and is ideal for today's modern dinghies, sport boats and cruiser racers. It's tailored cut gives unfettered freedom of movement for the athletic sailor.

The CST500™ smock is built using Zhik's proven Aroshell 3-layer fabric technology to provide streamlined foul weather gear for a wide range of conditions. This jacket is equally suited for use on short-haul and overnight crossings, as in high performance sports boat racing.

As a result, Zhik designed a range that appeals not only to energetic keelboat racers, but also to cruising sailors looking to step up into longer coastal passages that require more from their sailing gear.

Packed with innovation such as Zithane® reinforcement panels (tested by the 2017 – 18 Volvo Ocean Race winners) that lead to dramatic weight reductions for crew kit while maintaining traditional woven reinforcement durability. The CST500™ range can stand up to high intensity racing demands or provide the comfort and reassurance needed for long distance cruising.
