Best Used For
The Simms Glades Hoody excels in warm to hot weather conditions where sun protection is paramount.

Why we like it
What truly sets the Simms Glades Hoody apart is its meticulous, angler-focused design combined with reliable, high-performance materials, often presenting a strong value within the Simms lineup. While many sun shirts offer basic protection, Simms has refined this hoody to enhance the fishing experience through features like a well-articulated hood that stays in place and thumbholes that provide extended coverage without being restrictive. It strikes an excellent balance between robust sun blocking, superior breathability for hot climates, and the durability expected from Simms gear, making it a workhorse piece that consistently delivers performance, distinguishing it from more generic alternatives by offering specialized features at a competitive price point for its category.
Fabric/Material Composition
The hoody is crafted from a high-performance 100% polyester jersey knit fabric, chosen for its breathability, moisture management, and sun protective qualities.
Fit
The Simms Glades Hoody is designed with a traditional fit that allows for a full range of motion necessary for casting and other angling activities. It provides a comfortable, non-binding silhouette that can be worn on its own or as part of a layering system, and most users find it runs true to size.
Sizing Availability
This hoody is available in a comprehensive range of men's sizes, typically from Small (S) up to XXX-Large (XXXL), to accommodate a wide spectrum of anglers.
Care Instruction
To maintain the performance and longevity of your Simms Glades Hoody, machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric's performance features. Tumble dry on low heat or, for best results, hang to dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
