The Simms BugStopper SolarFlex Hoody is made for long, hot days on the water when sun and insects are both a concern. The smooth, lightweight SolarFlex® fabric stretches for unrestricted casting, dries quickly after spray or sweat and helps reduce odour thanks to HeiQ Fresh and HeiQ Stain Away treatments.
Integrated Insect Shield® gives long-lasting protection against bothersome insects, so you can stay focused on the take instead of the bites. The built-in hood offers reliable solar coverage and features a non-corrosive snap closure at the front to keep it secure in wind and when running the boat.
Extended sleeves with envelope thumbholes and a centre finger loop protect the backs of your hands from UV exposure while still allowing precise rod control. A combination of merrow seams and flat-seam construction minimises chafing under shoulder straps and waders, making this hoody a dependable layer for shore, boat or wading sessions.
