Simms SunGaiter is designed for anglers who spend long days on open water and need reliable sun protection without sacrificing comfort. Made from stretchy, quick-drying SolarFlex® fabric, it gives UPF 50+ coverage for your neck and face while remaining light and breathable.
The updated design for 2026 features mapped cooling zones in the front face flange and rear panels to help regulate temperature when the sun is high. A vented front flange improves airflow and makes breathing easier when you are poling the flats, casting from the bank, or running between spots.
The rear slot provides extra ventilation and also works as a ponytail opening, making it suitable for a wide range of anglers. The construction allows you to wear it in several ways, including over a cap, to maximise shade and reduce glare on the water.
This is a practical option for boat fishing, wading or shore fishing where reflection from the surface increases UV exposure throughout the session.
