You simply slip on one of Vortex’s new snap front shirts, and you’re good to go. This’ll be valuable for fishermen this summer as you can simply snap it on in the morning, and as the day heats up, you can unbutton it or remove it entirely. Vortex goes on to elaborate about the new shirt/jacket hybrid in their press release statement below:
Barneveld, Wisconsin – Vortex® broadens its popular Sun Slayer® apparel line with the Snap Front Shirt Jac, designed for versatility on land and particularly on the water, ensuring superior sun protection in all weather conditions.
With UPF 50, this light-weight layer underscores the importance of UV protection in a design that’s both comfortable and breathable. The fast-on, fast-off snap front means it’s easily layered and ready for action on cool summer mornings or “partly cloudy” afternoons when skin-damaging rays are no less intense.
- ANTIMICROBIAL fabric inhibits odor-causing bacteria, ensuring you stay fresh longer.
