From Skwala:
Bozeman, MT – June 30, 2026 – Skwala Fishing today announced the launch of the Sol Breeze Shirt, its first-ever button-down fishing shirt and the newest addition to the brand’s Sol Collection of warm-weather technical apparel. Built for anglers who want full sun protection without compromising comfort, mobility, or a clean look on or off the water, the Sol Breeze is available now at specialty fly fishing retailers and skwalafishing.com.
Sun hoodies do the job, but the Sol Breeze offers something different: the performance anglers expect from Skwala in a button-down silhouette that transitions naturally from the boat to the bar. At its core is Dot Air™ microporous fabric—the same ultralight, quick-drying, air-permeable textile used in Skwala’s best-selling Sol Wading Pant, but redesigned into a 40+ UPF button-down shirt that’s so light and breathable, you barely know you’re wearing it.
“The Sol Breeze was created out of a real gap we kept hearing about,” said Kevin Sloan, Skwala Founder and CEO. “Anglers wanted sun protection but didn’t always want to pull a hoodie over their head. The button-down format changes that — it still fishes great, and it looks sharp doing it.”
Gusseted arms and high-stretch construction deliver full range of motion through every cast, strip, and hookset. Flush, zippered, side-entry chest pockets won’t snag fly line — no flaps, no Velcro. A sewn-in microfiber patch handles smudged sunglasses between runs. The Sol Breeze is available in Ocean Blue, Silt, and Stillwater, in sizes M through XXL, at a retail price of $129.
