"I love this shirt. Wear in every time I fish. The snap button on the hoody is my favorite thing about the shirt"
— Hal R. (5/5)
"Simms makes many great clothing items, I recently received the Men's SolarFlex Cooling hoody as a gift. While many of my friends leverage them for water related activities, I used mine to complete 16 mile, 9 hour hikes over 5,000 feet of elevation in Glacier National Park. Not only did it keep me cool in the sun, it protected me brush and wind also. I've used many different sun shirts and this one is the gift that keeps on giving. Thanks Simms."
— Carl W. (5/5)
