HUK Icon X Tide Change Fade Shirt
The Huk ICON X Tide Change Camo Fade Shirt, featuring our new exclusive camo pattern, is the most technically advanced performance fishing shirt designed for hardcore anglers. This breathable material spreads moisture over a larger surface area, creating a rapid drying effect that cools the body after coming into contact with perspiration. The synthetic fibers allow air to pass through the shirt and contain a hydrophobic coating that transports sweat to drier areas, away from the skin.
