The Zhik Performance Women's Paddle Shorts are specifically designed to match our newly released base layer tops. With a seamless seat to prevent chafing during prolonged paddling sessions, these shorts are a game-changer. Zhik is a leading innovator in paddle gear development and has been for the past decade. From our crossover deck beaters to the first-generation paddle pants, which remain a staple in our range, we have always pushed the boundaries. The new paddle shorts are the next step in this evolution, catering to a wider range of conditions. For those seeking extra comfort, we are also introducing a padded version. Additional features include eco-friendly spandex fabric, 4-way stretch for maximum mobility, superior breathability, UPF 50+ UV protection, and adjustable leg length for a customized fit.
