FAQS
Clothing with a high Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) rating, like the shirts, shorts, vests, and pants in this collection, are best for sun protection. Orvis sun protection clothing has the added advantages of breathable fabric and built-in mobility so you’re never constricted or uncomfortable in your outdoor adventures.
Orvis men’s sun shirts are tested to make sure they really work, and they do. Professional guides who spend their lives under the sun rely on our UPF 50+ casting shirts, shooting shirts, and hoodies to keep their skin protected from harmful rays.
UPF clothing for men is better than sunscreen mainly because it gives you complete and full coverage, consistently blocking harmful UV rays with no need for reapplication. We do recommend sunscreen for skin the UPF clothing won’t cover.
Sun protection clothing is made from a special fabric engineered to block or absorb harmful ultraviolet light, and the UPF rating indicates how much light penetrates the material. The higher the UPF rating, the more UV light it blocks. The material itself becomes an effective barrier between you and the sun. We recommend choosing sun protection clothing with a UPF 50+ rating, like the options you’ll find here.
Our sun protection clothing is super comfortable, thanks to features like breathable material, strategic ventilation, quick-dry properties, and soft, lightweight fabrics.
Yes, the sun protection clothing you’ll find here blocks both UVA and UVB rays.
Most of our sun protection clothing is designed for warm climates and hot weather conditions, but many of these styles work well as mid layers or base layers under warmer outerwear.
Men’s Sun Protection Tech Performance Clothing
Our Men’s Sun Protection Clothing collection includes UPF 50+ shirts, pants, and more to safeguard your skin against harmful UV rays. This is clothing that’ll give you some of the highest Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) ratings available—that means effective sunscreen defense built right into the fabric. When you’re wearing our sun protection pants and long-sleeved shirts on the boat, your only worry will be whether the fish are biting, not your skin’s exposure to the sun.

The DriCast Hoodie protects your neck and head from harmful rays so you can fish longer. If you prefer packable head protection, toss a UV BUFF or broad-brim nylon hat into your bag and be prepared for the blistering sun. Our men’s sun protection shooting shirts let you enjoy a day at the clays course or a wingshooting trek afield, even with sun-sensitive skin.
