A couple of weeks ago, we welcomed Free Fly Apparel into the fold here at Trouts Fly Fishing. We wanted to shine a little light on their signature piece - The Free Fly Bamboo Lightweight Hoodie.

Free Fly launched back in 2011 and soon after, they developed and released this workhorse piece. With an ultra-lightweight construction built for long days on the water, the Bamboo Lightweight Hoodie is kitted out with a crossover hood (for improved neck coverage) and thumbholes for ultimate all-day sun coverage. Where the Bamboo Lightweight Hoodie sets itself apart from many of the competitors is its fabric blend.

The Bamboo blend creates an incredibly breathable and naturally odor-resistant fabric that is incredibly comfortable. There are plenty of great sun hoodies on the market, but a comfortable, breathable, quick-drying sun hoodie that doesn't smell like your middle school locker room at the end of a day on the water - well, that's notable.

The Bamboo Lightweight Hoodie offers a UPF 20+ rating, so you can handle the long hours chasing tailing fish on the flats or waiting for the hatch to pop on your favorite trout stream.
