Top, Hydrophobic Fleece™ Baselayer (Youth)

The Zhik Hydrophobic Fleece™ Performance Top is a warm, water-repellent layer for cooler conditions on the water. The fabric is naturally hydrophobic polypropylene with a soft brushed fleece inner, so it repels water rather than absorbing it, staying light and drying faster through long sessions. A PFAS-free Durable Water Repellency treatment adds further protection, and 4-way stretch with a rolled neckline allows comfortable movement across sailing, paddle, rowing, and watersports.

• Naturally Hydrophobic Polypropylene – The fabric repels water at the fibre rather than absorbing it, so it stays light and dries quickly, and because the repellency is built into the fibre it does not wash out over time.
• PFAS-free Durable Water Repellency Treatment – A surface treatment that boosts water repellency, free from PFAS.
• 4-Way Stretch – Moves in every direction for a full, unrestricted range of movement during high-output activity.
• Water-Resistant Flatlock Stitching – Flat, comfortable seams sewn with water-resistant thread to reduce water retention and ingress.
