We love the water, but the sun and wind can do a number on us if we don't protect ourselves. That's why we like the Simms SolarFlex Wind 1/2-Zip Shirt. The lightweight SolarFlex fabric features UV protection and a stretchy, synthetic construction that's wind-resistant, stain-repellent, breathable, and quick to dry. It also features mesh underarm panels to keep us cooler and dryer in warm weather and extended sleeves with hidden, envelope thumbholes for added coverage when we raise our arms to cast, mend, and set the hook. That combination deflects the breeze on chilly days, protects us from UV rays on sunny, and keeps us comfortable on hot days as we're casting or casually wearing our wind shirt in spring and summer.
