Zhik Hiking X Carbon Sailing Boot Insole

Zhik Hiking X Carbon Insole For Zhik Sailing Boots

Built for sailors who hike hard and refuse to give up performance, the Zhik Hiking X Carbon Insole is a precision-engineered upgrade designed to maximise power, efficiency and endurance on the water. Using cutting-edge materials normally reserved for elite sport, this insole transforms how energy is transferred from your legs to the boat especially in fully powered conditions.

At the heart of the design is Carbitex® M3 Monoflex technology, an advanced carbon fibre structure that behaves differently depending on direction of load. It remains flexible in one direction, allowing natural foot movement while walking, launching and manoeuvring, yet becomes stiff in the opposite direction to deliver exceptional support when hiking. The result is a powerful, efficient hiking platform without the discomfort of a permanently rigid insole.

The ultra-lightweight, super-strong carbon fibre construction helps spread load evenly across the foot, improving stability and reducing pressure points. This intelligent support works to reduce muscle fatigue and help prevent injury, allowing you to stay stronger for longer during long upwind legs and demanding race days.

For a perfect fit, the Hiking X Carbon Insole features integrated cutting guides, making it easy to customise to your exact boot size. Designed to integrate seamlessly with Zhik footwear, it’s a small upgrade that delivers a noticeable performance gain whether you’re club racing or competing at the highest level.
