High-level racing, training and dinghy sailing.
Fit Profile: High-cut, secure, supportive.

The Performance High Cut Boot is Zhik's racing-focused option for sailors who need their feet locked in position under load. The high-cut design holds the ankle joint stable during tacks and gybes, which is where a lower boot starts to let you down. It's built for ILCA racing and fast dinghy training, though it works just as well for anyone who hikes hard and wants ankle support that holds through a full race day.

The sole is a high-grip rubber compound developed for wet fibreglass and composite decks. The 2:1 ankle strap and side lacing system with under-strap hooks work together to keep the fit exact, and neither shifts under load. Drainage channels run through the sole to clear water fast, so the boot doesn't become dead weight mid-race. Reinforced panels at the toe and heel handle repeated deck contact without breaking down.

Zhik Performance High Cut Boot Construction

The high-cut profile keeps the ankle joint supported through the high-load moments in a race, particularly tacks, gybes and hiking. The wide 2:1 ankle strap locks the joint in position, and the side lacing system with under-strap hooks keeps the fit tight and precise without the laces working loose or catching on deck hardware.

Stitched reinforcement at the toe and heel protects the areas that take the most punishment from repeated deck contact. A high-walled rubber outsole and rubber-coated neoprene panels cover the high-contact zones without adding stiffness where you don't need it. The outsole uses cold-cemented construction, which addresses the delamination issues that affected earlier generations of Zhik dinghy boots.

The high-grip rubber compound sole gives reliable traction on wet deck surfaces. Integrated drainage channels clear water quickly so the boot stays light and responsive rather than heavy and sluggish as water comes aboard.

Zhik High Cut Sailing Boot FAQs

What is the main advantage of the high-cut design?

It keeps the ankle joint stable under load, which matters most during tacks, gybes and hard hiking. A lower boot gives you more freedom of movement but less support at the moments when your foot is taking the most strain. If ankle mobility is more important to you than support, the Zhik Performance Ankle Boot is the lower-cut alternative.

How does the lacing system work?

The side lacing system has under-strap hooks that keep the laces clear of snag points and hold the fit tight even when wet. It adjusts like a normal lace-up but stays put through a full race without needing to be retightened.

Are the high cut Zhik sailing boots suitable for hiking?

Yes they are, the high-walled outsole and reinforced panels handle the abrasion from hiking straps and deck edges, and the ankle strap gives you something solid to push against when you're out on the wire.

How do Zhik's high cut dinghy boots handle water?

Integrated drainage channels let water escape quickly through the sole. The boots won't keep your feet dry but they shed water fast enough to stay light through a race.

Is the Zhik sailing boot sole non-marking?

Yes, for standard fibreglass and composite deck surfaces. If your club or class has a specific non-marking requirement, it's worth checking the rules directly.

Much thicker filter (more surface area), should filter better
Size: (Pack of 1), Size: (Pack of 1)
First filter change at about 28000 miles. Original filter was pretty dirty but OK on intake side. WIX filter is quite a bit thicker but fits my 2016 RAM 5.7L Hemi fine. Also cleaned out the bottom side of the air filter box. The WIX filter is much cheaper than the Mopar and seems to have a similar construction but is much thicker. Assuming the filter media is the same, the WIX should in theory filter and breathe better (more surface area) - but I am no expert so.

Good quality.
Size: 15"+15"+13"
I needed to replace the wiper blades on my Jeep Wrangler JK, so I first went to a local auto parts store. The prices were pretty expensive, and they didn’t even have the correct replacement for my rear wiper blade. That’s when I decided to order the UTOBOO 15"+15" Windshield Wipers with 13 Inch Rear Wiper Blade Replacement online, and I’m really glad I did. The set arrived quickly and included everything I needed for both the front and rear wipers. Installation was very easy and only took a few minutes. They fit well on my Jeep, and the blades feel sturdy and made from good-quality materials. After using them, they wipe smoothly and leave the windshield clean without streaks, which is exactly what you want, especially in rain or dusty conditions. Overall, this is a great value compared to buying individual blades in-store, and it’s especially convenient since it includes the rear wiper replacement too. I would definitely recommend these to other Jeep Wrangler owners looking for an affordable and reliable option. ------Tip, don't forget to take off the green plastic, If you check the comments many people argues that the wipers don't work but in the pictures you can see they did not take off the green plastic protector. ----

Love
Size: 26+20+14"
I recently purchased the AUTOBOO 26” + 20” windshield wipers with the 14” rear blade, and I’m honestly very happy with them. Installation was quick and straightforward, even without much experience changing wipers. They fit perfectly on my car and clicked into place securely. The wiping performance is smooth and quiet, with no streaks or squeaking, even during heavy rain. I also noticed they clear water evenly across the windshield, which makes driving feel much safer, especially at night or on the highway. The rear 14” blade works just as well and was a nice bonus since it’s sometimes harder to find a good rear wiper included in a set. Overall, this set offers great value for the price, and I would definitely buy them again and recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, easy-to-install windshield wipers.

Decent wipers for a great price
Size: 28+28+11
These fit my daughters Ford Escape perfectly and the day after installation, it rained. The wipers work really well and the windshield is now streak free once again and the price was right. Easy to change and look good.
