Take on cool-weather sessions with the Zhik Active Baselayer Top, built for high-output performance and all-day comfort. Designed with input from Paddle Australia athletes, this top uses ultra-soft 100% recycled polyester knit that breathes and wicks moisture to help regulate your temperature during intense activity.

Engineered for dynamic movement and demanding environments, the Active Baselayer Top is tailored to high-intensity water sports including paddle and rowing. Made entirely from recycled polyester, the soft-touch knit delivers lightweight warmth while ensuring fast moisture wicking and rapid drying. A 105-GSM construction minimises water absorption, keeping the top light even when exposed to splashes or sweat.
The stretch construction and articulated flatlock seams provide excellent mobility and all-day comfort. Open mesh panels along the sides increase ventilation where it matters most, helping regulate core temperature in cool or fringe conditions. This baselayer performs equally well under a shell, drysuit or spandex when added warmth is needed without restriction.
Designed for fast-paced performance and sustainability, it’s an essential next-to-skin layer for serious water athletes pushing through moderate to cold conditions.
