Early season hunting brings challenges all its own. Hot and humid conditions combined with miles of hiking can make you uncomfortable in ways that snow and cold can't. The Early Season Hooded Shirt is designed with hot, late summer/early fall days in mind. The lightweight polyester fabric has 50+ UPF sun protection to guard your skin against damaging solar rays and the hood provides additional concealment from game and protection from the sun. Human scent is always a concern, so Silvadur technology has been added to provide long-lasting odor control. The 3/4 length zipper and strategically-placed mesh panels on the back and underarms maximize ventilation to keep you cool. Flatlock stitching reduces chafing.
