Patagonia Sunshade Gear

In Stock Now!:
The Sunshade is a new take on an old idea. Create a high SPF sun protection shirt. What Patagonia has added is more mobility and flexibility. This is perfect for folks wanting to move their arms easily - Paddlers and fishermen love this shirt! In addition, you can avoid looking like the legions of people wearing chartruese and pink columbia fishing shirts.

Coming soon!:
Add to your new Sunshade a Sun Mask for full protection: Here's Patagonia's description of this new product: Inspired by old-school bandana face protection, the Sun Mask improves the concept with an anatomically designed shape and our new, ultralight, quick-drying 30 UPF polyester fabric. The top hugs your face without unwanted pressure, while the bottom flares for neck coverage.

Top it off with a pair of Sun Gloves for full sun protection. Here's Patagonia's description of this new product: Take a look at an old flats guide's hands and you'll get a pretty good idea of why we made these. Of course, there's always sunscreen, but it tends to make slippery work of casting and line control, and who wants coconut-scented flies, anyway? The solution is a light, comfortable, fingerless glove made from quick-drying, 30 UPF polyester (84% recycled) fabric. The webbed-finger design and out-of-the-way seam placement make Sun Gloves easy to wear and easy to slip on and off. Your hands will thank you.
