I got my a shirt and feels good and it is breathable.

Feels good and lightweight.

I got a jacket as well and it seems good.

Both seem good value for the money.

These caps have a UV protection but can you get a UPF rating

Winter time I look like the Michelin man but come summer I live in shorts and singlet. I wear a long sleeve mainly to keep the bugs off mainly, and a hat and buff to help block light leakage through the side of my sunnies for spotting fish. Having dark skin is great - never get burnt. I do tan like a mofo though. My forearms are 4 or 5 shades darker than my upper arms lol.
