I work outside in all conditions,I use factor 50 on my exposed arms neck etc,..I'm on tractors,mowers,...etc etc..

Anyone recommend a good long sleeve UV T shirt,there are lots to choose from, .

The Korda one looks good ,but has carp tax I guess.

Any recommendations, I'll check out..thanks .

I use the helikon gen 2 I think it's called in summer as a T-shirt and winter as a thermal layer. Think the sets only £30 for top and bottoms.

Decathlon do some LINKY POO

PERSONALLY
I prefer a shirt that I can turn the collar up to protect my neck and unbutton the top if I get too hot I buy these when on offer

I'm well chuffed with it,last night was hot,muggy,mozzi type weather,kept me nice and cool..

Very versatile,plus it dries quickly as I got caught in mizzle playing a fish or two..

👍👍

The Kiwi Boulder version looks very good,the collar design looks better for keeping the sun off your neck

It does look good,and I have to say I look quite smart,lol..wearing the craghoppers shirt,a lot different to a carp branded t shirt,...mind you the Navitas and British carp clothing stuff I bought is good quality,I got fed up looking like I was still at work ,wearing my work stuff..

Deffo I will get another shirt..!
