Air/X™ system.
Climate control system cleverly disguised as a shirt.
Sun Protective Factor 50
The highest Rating ever given to a garment
It is virtually impossible to obtain a Patent for a shirt. After all, isn't a shirt just a shirt? Introducing U.S. Patent # 5727256 for Sunlight Protecting Garments having Convective Ventilation or better known as the "Air/X"™ system. Hook & Tackle's® invention has revolutioned the concept of comfort in the hot and sunny outdoors.
The Problem.
Conventional fishing shirts.
It's hot and you are getting pounded by the sun's ultra-violet rays. Your conventional fishing shirt allows air to enter, but once that air mixes with your body temperature, the air becomes very hot and wants to escape, but can't. Why? We all learned in grade school about the principal of hot air rising. The problem with conventional fishing shirts is that they are designed for air to enter the garment but not to exit.
By simply opening the zipper vents below the arms and two zipper vents across the shoulders, you allow cool air to enter the shirt. Once inside, the cool air mixes with your body heat and becomes hot. Next, the "Convective Currents" principle goes to work and hot air explodes out through the shoulder vents. No more trapped hot air as in conventional fishing shirts. It really works! This is why America's top pros rely on Air/X-100®.
The Air/X-100™ also features multiple storage pockets with mesh drainage and is lined with CoolMax® mesh, which keeps you cool and dry, roll-up collar for maximum sun protection and roll-up sleeves with a tab. A lot of technology is crammed in here just to make you more comfortable.
