Stop Worrying About Sunburns

Every hour on the water is another hour of UV exposure. Sunburns, premature aging, and skin cancer risk add up fast.
The Helios blocks 98% of harmful UV rays with UPF 50+ protection - the highest rating available. Unlike sunscreen that washes off, sweats away, or needs reapplying every 2 hours, Helios protection lasts all day. Just put it on and fish.
Stay Cool When It Gets Hot

Regular long sleeves trap heat against your body. By mid-morning, you're drenched and miserable.
The Helios is engineered with mesh ventilation panels that let heat escape while you move. Moisture-wicking fabric pulls sweat away from your skin and dries in minutes. No more sticky, heavy shirts ruining your day on the water.
Built to Last, Priced to Own

Cheap sun shirts fall apart after a few washes. Premium brands charge $70-100 and aren't any better.
The Helios gives you tournament-grade performance at $49.95 - and backs it with a 99-day money-back guarantee. Stain-resistant, odor-resistant, wrinkle-free. Machine wash, tumble dry, done.
