Patagonia Self-Guided Sun Shirt

94,90 

A Patagonia Long-Sleeved Self-Guided Sun Shirt is a long-sleeved technical shirt for fishing, hiking, trekking and travelling in intense sunshine. With 40+ UPF sun protection, quick-drying fabric in 100% recycled polyester and intelligent ventilation, it offers reliable protection and comfort even on very hot days. “Finally a shirt that remains comfortable above 30 degrees and at the same time is totally technical,” describe some users after long days outdoors.

Description

Developed for prolonged journeys in the wild - whether by the river, on the coast or on demanding trails - this jacket combines lightness, mechanical elasticity and effective moisture management. The wicking finish helps keep skin dry, even in humid environments or during intense activity. It's also ideal for those who walk the Camino de la Costa or practise camping and outdoor activities in summer.

Details designed for maximum functionality

The double-layer collar can be raised as a turtleneck to reinforce the protection of the neck from the sun. Hidden springs at the ends prevent the collar from flapping in the wind. Vents on the back and shoulders increase air circulation and ensure constant freshness.

It has four chest pockets: two vertical pockets with corrosion-resistant zips, ideal for small accessories, and two buttoned pockets to keep essential items safe. Under the flap of the right pocket there is also a discreet tool holder. A practical detail is the integrated lens cleaning cloth on the lower front, always accessible when you need to clean sunglasses or reading glasses.

The extended hem stays in place during movement - whether walking, rowing or wearing a fanny pack - preventing the shirt from riding up or rolling up.

Sustainability with responsibility

Made from 100% recycled polyester and manufactured in a Fair Trade Certified™ facility, this garment combines technical performance with social responsibility. The people involved in production receive an additional reward for their labour.

Material

Recycled materials

Recycled materials are made from recycled raw materials, such as old PET bottles, fishing nets or textile scraps, and offer an ecological alternative to conventional synthetic fibres. They are lightweight, robust and high-performance, in no way inferior to new materials and, at the same time, help to conserve resources and reduce waste. Ideal for all those who prioritise sustainability and functionality in their outdoor adventures.
,

Polyester

Polyester is a synthetic fibre characterised by its high resistance, dimensional stability and ease of maintenance. The material absorbs little moisture, dries quickly and is also very durable. Polyester is often used in outdoor and functional clothing as it is lightweight, robust and versatile, and can be used as an outer fabric, lining or in mixed fabrics for greater comfort.
