Go to sateam.com for the SA brand. I have never seen them anywhere but online.

I just tried the HUK brand out and I like it better than the Buff brand. I wear glasses and the Buff fogs up my glasses.
The HUK seems to breath easier if that makes sense.
They were on clearance at ft wort cabelas for $15 to $19 today

Wish someone would make one that was comfortable and did not fog your glasses. I just can't find one that fits the way I would like. Have a couple Buffs, Gillz brand with open mesh mouth, Simms, hunting masks, Academy Magellan brand, a couple no-name models and tried on a HUK for fit. They all feel about like a compression shirt and make my nose hurt after about 30 minutes. Also they all cause various degrees of fogging of sunglasses, even the Gillz mesh. So far the favorite is the $10 Academy model, it is a lighter fabric with good breathability. Someone needs to design one with a looser fit and and nose bridge that provides some support instead of relying on elasticity around the head. The loose fit on the nose /mouth area would also help solve the fogging problem. Just need to block sun rays without having to wear a cut off sock over my head.

I tried the buff last week and it seemed to do what I was looking for. I don't have much hair though.

I have the Columbia Freezer Zero. It's the only one I tried so I can't do a comparison, but I like it. It keeps me very cool and doesn't fog up my glasses too much if I wear it over my nose.

Just use one of these. It allows you to spit your chew, doesn't fog your glasses with nose breath, and keep other fisherman at bay....haha

I fixed the fogging problem with anti-fog spray. Reapply every time out.

I like the Buffs more than the SA but the best one so far that is comfortable and breathable is the one from skeeter.com.

I went with a big straw hat from SA. It protects my head, face, ears and neck. Wear a wet towel around my neck and change it out when it gets hot.

I bought one of these and can not over state how comfortable and cool this shirt/hoodie/face cover is. https://www.amazon.com/ExOfficio-Ultimat...xofficio+hoodieBest summer protection I have ever worn. Very light weight and - I bought mine a size big so it fits loose.
Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.
