Zhik Performance Ankle Boot - NEW 2026

The Zhik Performance Ankle Boot is a race-ready sailing boot built for sailors who need dependable grip, durability, and comfort in demanding marine environments. Designed with a low-cut performance profile and a high-walled upper, it balances freedom of movement with added abrasion protection where it matters most.

Constructed with a neoprene upper and stitched rubber-coated fabric, the boot delivers a secure, comfortable fit while standing up to repeated deck abuse. Abrasion-resistant toe and heel overlays protect high-wear zones, extending the life of the boot during intense sailing and boat handling.

Underfoot, a super durable, high-grip rubber compound sole provides confident traction on wet decks, ramps, and pontoons. The sole is cold cement bonded with additional stitching at the toe box for enhanced longevity and resistance to delamination.

An easy-entry design, wide ankle strap, and heel webbing loop make the Zhik Performance Ankle Boot quick to put on and secure in use. Integrated drainage ports allow water to escape efficiently, keeping the boot light, responsive, and comfortable throughout long sessions on the water.
