Ah, the allure of a day on the water. The gentle rocking of the boat, the thrill of the catch – it's a quintessential experience that beckons to adventurers young and old. Whether fishing on the river or out on the salty water before you set sail, it's crucial to consider your attire. While lobsters are great eating, looking like one is not. Fear not, fellow fisho! This guide will have you outfitted for a day of nautical/river/lake bliss, and VOORMI's ultralight collection is about to become your secret weapon.

Sun's Out, Buns Out? Not Quite.

The sun is a constant companion on the water, and while a tan might be part of the allure, sunburns are not. Sun protection is paramount. VOORMI's ultralight River Run Hoodie, with its UV protection, is your first line of defense. This technical hoodie is constructed from a breathable, moisture-wicking fabric that keeps you cool while shielding you from harmful rays. The Hoodie also features a comfortable hood for additional sun protection or to keep the wind at bay. But this hoodie is anti-microbial, meaning you keep the stink at bay from sun up to sun down!

Don't Get Soaked (Unless You Want To)

Spray from waves, rogue fish, or an overenthusiastic cast – getting a little wet is part of the boating experience. But being drenched can put a damper on your day (pun intended). VOORMI's ultralight collection is again the answer. The fabric is quick drying making it a fan favorite.

Beyond the Catch

Whether you're a seasoned angler or a leisure boater, VOORMI's ultralight collection is your one-stop shop for comfortable, functional, and stylish boating attire. The River Run Hoodie has thumb holes to protect the back of your hand and a hood that can be buttoned up to the perfect height to protect your neck.

Gator or Gaiter? Choosing the Right Neck Protection

Random fact, the neck is one of the strongest parts of an alligator, so these animals make sure to protect this area, maybe we take a page from nature? While the River Run Hoodie has neck protection, if that isn’t your jam, VOORMI uses the same proprietary technology in their neck gaiters. The Precision Blended Gaiter is ultra-versatile, breathable and moisture wicking. Available in many colors it is just another way to protect your hide!

Fishing for Fashion

While functionality is key, there's no reason you can't look good while reeling in the big ones. VOORMI's ultralight collection comes in a variety of stylish colors, so you can express your unique personality. There are nine available colors in the River Run Hoodie and eight in the Long Sleeve Tech Tee. VOORMI doesn’t buy into the next shade of blue, focusing more on colors that can be used in multiple environments. Remember the most important factor is to choose colors that you feel comfortable and confident in. After all, you're out to have a fun day on the water!
