Fincognito FlexFleece & UV Protect Hoodies

Their newest mid-weight fleece hoodies feature a power-stretch fabric (93% polyester 7% Spandex). The resulting 4-way power-stretch fabric is incredibly comfortable. The smooth face prohibits snags while the soft velvety interior traps air for added warmth. The top of the line 1/4-Zip FlexFleece Hoodie features thumb-hole cuffs, a zippered chest pocket, and an articulated hood.

Their UV-protective hoodies feature a 84/16 blend of polyester and Spandex. The resulting 4-way stretch fabric is lightweight, very breathable, and incredibly comfortable. So light, you won't know you have it on, but it blocks out almost all of the sun's rays.

MSRP: UV Protect $90 USD, FlexFleece $100 USD - fincognito.com

Flying Fisherman Down Sea Sunglasses

We got a pair to test and you do get a visual edge with these large fit, lightweight TR90 frame shades, with co-injected non-slip nose and temple pads for a great no-slip fit. The large size provides plenty of protection from the sun at any angle. We didn’t test to see if ours were indestructible, but we know that quality polycarbonate lenses like these are virtually bullet-proof and will offer anglers shatterproof eye protection from flying hooks, lures, and sinkers.

The AcuTint system provides good colour contrast without distorting the natural colours, allowing you to see more clearly.  We find that polarized lenses are a must-have feature on the water, and our Flying Fisherman eliminate glare, reduce eye fatigue, and block 100% of those nasty UV rays. Use the inside of the included microfibre drawstring case to keep them clean, and you’ll enjoy crystal clear vision for years to come.
