I've been wearing a long sleeve Columbia cool shirt. It's about a year old. It seemed like it was better when new. Now it just provides share but doesn't seem to cool as well... When you wash any of the breathable or cooling technical clothing items, be sure to keep ANY fabric softener product away from them. NEVER add fabric softener to the washer, and if you do put them in a dryer at all (I don't), never use a fabric softener product in the dryer either (sheet or other). Fabric softener is sticky/gummy and will block the pores of the material that allow it to breathe, and will interfere with the wicking/evaporation effect that makes the material desirable in the first place. This is per every manufacturer I've ever checked on the care recommendations.

I like the HUK hooded shirts. It sure helps with the sun on the neck and ears. I would suggest you give them a try you will like it.

I like the HUK shirts, but the HUK shorts are the best I have ever had... the original Next Level shorts... expensive but worth the money in my opinion.

Sounds like I'm going to bass pro or Dicks to get some new Huk gear.

Sounds like I'm going to bass pro or Dicks to get some new Huk gear. You'll typically pay full-list price there. Academy online recently had the $40 long-sleeve t-shirt for $15 in some colors. They'll match the online price in the store typically. Shopping via Google search will save you some $ also. I haven't tried the ICE line yet, but the prices are anything BUT cool. I'm betting Huk "ICE" is similar to the Cabela's Guidewear "Coolcore Technology" that can often be found on sale or under some promotion. Anyone ever notice that Huk never states a UPF number like many other suppliers do? They just say their material has "SPF/UPF to keep you protected".

I recently got my first HUK long sleeved top as part of a promotion from Daiwa. It is a nice shirt, but if it cost me more than $30.00 I think I will stick with Columbia or Magellan. I simply can't see the difference in quality to justify twice the price. I got this HUK from Daiwa for $5.00 with purchase of a new reel, but I only own Daiwa so it was a win win for me.

Dicks has Huk stuff on sale all of the time. It's where I bought mine.

According to my farmers tan every shirt I have ever worn must be 100 percent SPF / upf whatever you call it. I'm not paying for that [censored]. Magellan or a tshirt for me. Call me a cheap arse see if I mind.

I prefer the Columbia PFG products. The Huk stuff is nice quality but everything seems to run smaller/tighter than other brands. Including the neck/face gaiters. This true. I wear xl had to get xxl which is on the baggy side. It does work well.

I love my Huk stuff. I love how the material is very light and breathable, but yet retains durability and sun protection. To me it's worth the money.
