Charleston, SC (March 30, 2022) – Huk continues to lead the industry with the highest quality gear that is tough enough for the harshest conditions on the water but fashionable enough for drinks at the bar after a long day on the river. Moreover, Huk’s performance collections earn high praise from fly anglers coast to coast.
Curtis Fleming, host of Fly Rod Chronicles, trusts Huk to keep him protected during long days on the water. With features such as superior breathability, sun protection, cooling fibers and quick-drying fabrics, Huk’s clothing is engineered and designed to excel in the harshest conditions on the water but fashionable enough to wear around town.
Curtis wears Huk clothing during his fly-fishing adventures and is pleased to share his personal picks. “As a fly guy, I fish 365-days a year, no matter the weather. I need the right gear to get me out there. I trust Huk no matter the season or my destination. I love the way Huk fits me and how their clothes look on and off the water.” Following are some of Curtis’ favorite picks.
Huk Tide Point Long Sleeve
The Huk Tide Point Solid Long Sleeve is a performance-packed button-down, completely reinvented. The Tide Point shirt is designed to easily transition from the rivers to the boardroom. Hydrophobic fibers transport water and sweat away from the skin to the exterior of the clothing, where it can evaporate more efficiently. With all-day comfort for both on and off the water pursuits, the Tide Point is constructed using lightweight, breathable, quick-drying, moisture-wicking 30+ UPF rated fabric with four-way stretch and built-in microfiber sunglass wipe. Featuring Huk’s laser perforated underarms and back for supreme breathability, the fit and function of the Tide Point will quickly earn anglers’ respect.
Huk Waypoint Hoodie and Long Sleeve
The Waypoint hoodie and long sleeve shirt feature 62% recycled polyester, 33% rayon and 5% spandex. The lightweight recycled yarns are used to create an environmentally sound garment without sacrificing comfort or functionality. The hoodie and long sleeve shirt feature cooling fibers that work to remove heat from the surface of the skin, keeping anglers more comfortable and on the water longer. The hood is built taller around the neck, allowing for extra protection from the sun. Both hoodies and long sleeve shirts are rated 50+ UPF for ultimate protection against the sun and feature a chest pocket for storing lightweight items. The hoodie is available in men’s and women’s sizes.
The Waypoint men’s 7.5” shorts are perfect for style and comfort. The performance shorts are made from 37% recycled polyester, 35% polyester, 20% cotton and 8% spandex and feature a moisture-wicking waistband. This combination provides superior stretch, mobility, and sun protection for a full day of water-filled activities. Ideal for both fresh- and saltwater fishing applications, the shorts are quick-drying and stain-resistant. The shorts are constructed with a zippered front fly and zippered back pockets to secure gear and wallets while moving around the boat. A conveniently designed plier pocket helps keep essential gear close at hand.
