SALTBUSH · SUN HOODIE
Beat The
Aussie Sun
A UPF 50+ hooded sun shirt with a fold-up face gaiter and thumbhole cuffs — full coverage for long days fishing, boating, camping and out on the 4WD. Cool, quick-dry, and built for the harshest sun on earth.
UPF 50+ Rated
Blocks up to 98% of UVA & UVB — the coverage sunscreen can't keep up with.
Fold-Up Face Gaiter
Built-in hood + face cover. Seal up when the sun bites, drop it in the breeze.
Thumbhole Cuffs
Long sleeves + thumbholes cover the back of your hands on the rod or the wheel.
Cool & Quick-Dry
Lightweight 4-way stretch that wicks sweat and dries fast. Never clingy.
UPF 50+ is the highest sun-protection rating for fabric — it blocks up to 98% of UVA and UVB rays, so the sun barely gets through. Unlike sunscreen, it never sweats off or needs re-applying.
60-day risk-free trial and a 1-year warranty on materials and stitching. Not for you? Send it back — simple, no hassle.
1× Saltbush UPF 50+ hooded sun shirt with built-in fold-up face gaiter and thumbhole cuffs, plus a care card.
Two in three Aussies
get skin cancer. Cover up.
We've got the harshest sun on earth — and the arms, neck and hands cop the worst of it. Sunscreen sweats off by lunch. Saltbush doesn't. Pull the hood up, flip the gaiter over, and stay out on the water, at camp, or on the tracks all day — protected the whole time.

earns its place.
UPF 50+ fabric
Tightly-knit technical fabric blocks up to 98% of UVA and UVB rays — the top sun-protection rating there is, worn not slathered on.
Fold-up face gaiter
Built-in hood and a fold-up cover for your face, ears and neck. Seal up when the sun's brutal, drop it when the breeze picks up.
Thumbhole cuffs
Long sleeves with thumbholes keep the fabric down over the back of your hands — no burnt knuckles on the rod, paddle or steering wheel.
4-way stretch
Moves every direction you do — casting, paddling, reaching into the ute. A relaxed, non-clingy cut that never rides up.
Cool & quick-dry
Lightweight and breathable — wicks sweat and dries in minutes. Cooler in the sun than a cotton shirt, not hotter.
Flat-lock seams
Smooth, low-profile seams sit flat against the skin — zero chafe on the long days, under a pack or a life jacket.

questions.

It's a relaxed athletic cut and runs slightly trim. If you're between sizes or want it loose, size up. Check the size guide for chest measurements.
