Simms Men's Solarflex Hoody

Built for blazing sun and long days on the water, the Simms Men’s SolarFlex Hoody delivers lightweight comfort with uncompromising sun protection.

Made from Simms’ highest-performing solar protective knit fabric, this hoody provides UPF 50+ coverage while feeling smooth, stretchy, and breathable for all-day wear in hot conditions.

The updated fabric offers a more natural hand and an opaque look, making it just as comfortable on the boat as it is on the riverbank. A 3-panel vented hood with stretch binding and snap closure stays securely in place for full sun coverage, while extended sleeves with thumbholes and a center finger loop protect the backs of your hands from harsh rays. Finished with HeiQ Fresh odor control and HeiQ Stain Away treatments, the SolarFlex Hoody keeps you cool, clean, and focused on fishing when temperatures rise.

Q: What makes a fishing shirt different from a regular shirt?
A: Fishing shirts are designed specifically for comfort, sun protection, and performance on the water. They’re made from lightweight, quick-drying, and breathable materials that wick away moisture and often include UPF-rated sun protection — keeping anglers cool and protected all day long. Materials are also often stain resistant, great in the case that you get fish slime, mud, or anything else on them.

Q: Are fishing shirts good for hot weather?
A: Yes, fishing shirts are ideal for warm conditions. They feature moisture-wicking fabrics, mesh venting, and lightweight construction to help you stay cool and dry, whether you’re on the flats, in a drift boat, or hiking to your favourite trout stream.

Q: Do your fishing shirts offer sun protection?
A: Absolutely. Most of our fishing shirts feature UPF 30–50+ sun protection to guard against harmful UV rays. Long sleeves, high collars, and extended cuffs provide added coverage without sacrificing comfort or breathability.

Q: Which brands of fishing shirts do you carry?
A: Drift Outfitters carries top apparel brands including Simms, Patagonia, and Hooké. Each brand offers a mix of technical performance shirts and casual styles built for anglers who demand comfort and function both on and off the water.

Q: Are your fishing shirts available in both men’s and women’s styles?
A: Yes, we stock a range of fishing shirts tailored for both men and women, with ergonomic fits and designs that prioritize movement, comfort, and coverage in all conditions.

Q: How should I care for my fishing shirts?
A: Wash your fishing shirts according to manufacturer directions. Hang dry or tumble on low heat to preserve technical fabric performance and UPF protection over time.
