Developed through decades of collaboration with elite race teams and accomplished dinghy sailors, the Code Zero EVO Hikers represent GUL's most advanced hiking system to date. Engineered for sailors who demand maximum support, comfort and durability, the EVO Hikers combine innovative construction techniques with premium sustainable materials to deliver outstanding performance in the most demanding racing conditions.

Constructed from high-stretch FX:Lite external panels and NAECO FSC® & PEFC® certified natural rubber foam, the EVO Hikers provide exceptional freedom of movement where flexibility is required, while strategically reducing stretch in key support zones for greater stability and control when hiking hard.

At the core of the design is a durable 3mm Flextex seat panel and integrated fibreglass hiking battens featuring GUL's exclusive V-Hold Hiking System. This advanced configuration helps keep sailors securely locked into position, reducing fatigue and enabling more effective power transfer during prolonged periods of aggressive hiking.

Internally, a combination of Thermospan thermal lining and a targeted Graphene X Boltdry+ kidney panel provides warmth, moisture management and comfort in varying conditions. Blindstitched seam construction with G-Tape internal taping enhances durability, reduces water ingress and delivers a comfortable, performance-focused fit.

Additional features include dual-position suspenders, universal fit adjustment, removable Hex Flex pad risers, embossed knee articulation, RevOfit 3D Pattern Technology, adjustable leg length with R-T-C bartack adjustment points, a Flow lower leg drainage system, and S-Seal ankle seals for a secure and customised fit. Finished with True Thickness Foam, the Code Zero EVO Hikers are engineered to perform beyond what's necessary.
