Six days of travel stripped to a few frenzied seconds: on Sudan’s Red Sea coast, Josh Gallivan comes tight to a bluefin trevally while Stu Harley and Mike LaSota look on. RUSS SCHNITZER © 2017 Patagonia, Inc. Men’s Sunshade Technical Hoody Form follows fishing. Shaped by the specifi c demands of fl y fi shing, Patagonia gear is built to stand up to every challenge from fi rst to last light—letting you hold off the elements and focus on the fi sh. In the blazing heat of the tropical fl ats, that means meticulously designed products that combine comfort, breathability and freedom of motion—like the Sunshade Technical Hoody, made from ultralight 3.5-oz polyester with 50+ UPF sun protection, thumb-holes to protect the hands, and a roomy hood that fi ts easily over a baseball cap. For our new Technical Stretch Shorts, we chose fast-drying 100% recycled polyester with built-in stretch and a longer cut to cover the thighs. From shirts and shorts to hats and masks, our function-fi rst hot weather clothing helps you keep your cool when the mercury, or adrenaline, really starts to rise.
