Aftco Reaper Technical Sweatshirt

Reaper Fishing Sweatshirt with an integrated face mask and neck warmer. “Game Changer?” Too cliché for our taste, but the Reaper fleece fishing hoodie is definitely making the game a lot more comfortable. In this performance fleece hoodie AFTCO delivers with technical features like laser cut ventilation on mask and underarm area, a hood with our cinch shock cord anchoring system designed specifically for both bass fishing and saltwater fisherman as they run in their boats at high speeds, Block Tapey pocket closure on the front pouch pocket, AFGUARD stain release and a toasty 100% polybonded microfleece fabric. No disrespect to our favorite cotton fishing hoodies, but this fishing sweatshirt will easily become a staple when things cool down and warmth is a necessity. The reaper is the best fishing sweatshirt available, and the fishing industry’s most popular pullover sweatshirt thanks to AFTCO’s built a in face warmer. Wear the AFTCO reaper technical fleece hoodie as-is or as a crucial layering piece to stay warm on the water.
