Florence Marine X Airtex Long Sleeve Hooded Shirt

Product Description

Stay protected and comfortable on the water with the Florence Marine X Airtex Long Sleeve Hooded Shirt—a technical performance top engineered for serious ocean athletes. Part of Florence Marine X's innovative Airtex collection, this hooded shirt combines advanced fabric technology with practical design for all-day wear in and around the water.

Airtex Technology

The revolutionary Airtex fabric delivers exceptional breathability and quick-drying performance that keeps you comfortable during extended sessions. Lightweight yet durable, this technical material wicks moisture rapidly while providing crucial UPF sun protection for New Zealand's harsh UV conditions. Whether you're paddling at dawn, surfing through midday, or fishing until sunset, the Airtex fabric works with your body to regulate temperature and protect your skin.

Performance Features

The integrated hood provides additional sun protection for your neck, ears, and head—critical coverage often overlooked by standard rashguards. Long sleeves offer complete arm protection without restricting movement, while the athletic fit moves naturally with your body through paddling, surfing, and active water sports. The quick-dry properties mean you can transition seamlessly from water to land activities without the discomfort of a heavy, saturated top.

Versatile Applications

Perfect for surfing, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, sailing, or any water activity where sun protection and comfort are paramount. The lightweight construction makes it ideal for layering under a wetsuit in cooler conditions or wearing solo during New Zealand's warmer months. Equally at home on the water or hiking coastal tracks.
