Zhik, the global leader in performance sailing apparel, is proud to announce it will be Official Apparel Partner of the highly anticipated 2024 Moth World Championships, set to take place in New Zealand from December 30, 2024, to January 7, 2025.

This partnership highlights Zhik's commitment to supporting innovation and excellence in competitive sailing, as some of the world's best sailors converge to compete in the cutting-edge International Moth class.

The International Moth class is renowned for its speed, precision, and demand for technical mastery. With hydrofoiling boats that often exceed 30 knots, competitors rely on apparel that offers exceptional performance under intense conditions. Zhik's range of high-performance sailing gear, including its lightweight, quick-dry technical apparel and advanced wet weather protection, is perfectly suited to meet these exacting requirements.

Johnny Rodgers, Zhik's Head of Marketing and Global Sponsorship Manager, commented: "The Moth World Championships represent the pinnacle of innovation and skill in sailing, making this partnership a natural fit for Zhik. We're excited to support these incredible athletes as they push the boundaries of speed and performance on the water."

Among the competitors is Hattie Rogers, a Zhik ambassador and rising star in the sailing world. Having achieved significant accolades in both the Moth and WASZP classes, Hattie brings exceptional skill and determination to the event. Reflecting on the sponsorship, she said: "I have been working with Zhik for many years now and hands down, it's the best gear I've worn. Whether it's staying warm in challenging conditions or having lightweight apparel that moves with me, Zhik helps me focus entirely on my performance. I'm thrilled to compete with their support at this year's Worlds."

Zhik's sponsorship of the Moth Worlds underscores its commitment to developing cutting-edge apparel for sailors at every level. From durable, water-repellent fabrics to ergonomic designs that maximise comfort and flexibility, Zhik's products are engineered to help athletes perform at their best. The partnership with the Moth Worlds provides a unique opportunity to showcase Zhik's technology in action on a global stage.

As the 2024 Moth World Championships approach, Zhik invites sailing enthusiasts and fans to follow the action. The company will provide exclusive updates, insights, and behind-the-scenes content from the event, highlighting the incredible skill and innovation that define the Moth class.
