Junior Tech Pants & Shorts

Junior Thermal Pants & Shorts for Dinghy Sailing

Thermal pants and shorts for kids and youth are the lower-body first layer for young sailors on winter sessions on the Optimist, O'pen Skiff, RS Feva and Laser 4.7 (ILCA 4). Worn under the wetsuit, they retain heat and keep the skin dry thanks to hydrophobic fleece fabrics.

Technical fleece or brushed lycra construction offers lightweight, close-fitting insulation without bulk under the wetsuit. Long leggings protect the whole leg on cold days, while thermal shorts are comfortable for mid-season. Junior sizes follow the child's growth.

To choose, consider water temperature and the child's build: fleece leggings for winter, shorts for intermediate days. Brands specialised in junior sizes: Zhik, Vaikobi, GUL and Musto.
