Ruth Walker –
Wore this during a long day on the lake. The hood stayed put and the UPF 50+ protection kept me from getting sunburned. The fabric feels natural and doesn’t trap heat. Great for fishing in the midday sun.
Alexandra Hudson –
Fits well and the thumbholes help keep the sleeves in place. The finger loop is useful for protecting my hand while reeling. A bit heavier than expected, but still comfortable.
Maria Ball –
Excellent sun protection on a hot afternoon. The snap hood stays closed even when I’m moving around. No odor after a few days of use, thanks to the HeiQ technology.
Phil Knox –
Good for back-of-hand coverage. The extended sleeves are helpful when working near the water. A bit stiff when first worn, but warms up quickly.
