Columbia Wild Cast Short-Sleeve Shirt - Men's Marine Light, M

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""The Columbia Wild Cast Short-Sleeve Shirt has become my first grab on warm weather fishing days because it manages heat and sun better than anything else in my rotation at this length. The comfort stretch nylon follows every cast without pulling, and having a dedicated sunglasses pocket with a cleaning patch right on the shirt means I'm never hunting around for a cloth when the lens gets splashed.""Warm weather fishing has its own set of demands, and the Columbia Wild Cast Short-Sleeve Shirt is built to meet all of them without breaking a sweat about it. Whether you're wading a sun-baked flat or working a creek in the middle of July, this shirt keeps you cool, dry, and protected while carrying enough angler-specific storage to handle a full day away from the truck. The nylon and elastane blend delivers a comfort stretch that moves naturally through every cast, reach, and landing without pulling or binding at the shoulders. Omni-Shade UPF 50 blocks UVA and UVB rays through the fabric so exposed hours on open water don't come at a cost to your skin, while Omni-Wick construction pulls sweat away continuously and dries it fast so the shirt stays light even when the temperature doesn't cooperate. A button-down collar with hidden buttons holds its shape in the wind, and the combination of a zippered chest pocket, buttoned chest pocket, interior security pocket, and dedicated sunglasses pocket with cleaning patch means every piece of essential gear has exactly the right place to live."
