UPF 50+ Fishing Gloves

If you are like me and like to spend time out on the water these UPF 50+ Fishing Gloves are a critical piece of gear. When the fish are biting and the drinks are flowing it is easy to lose track of the last time you put on suntan lotion. All while you are standing in the blazing sun.

I’ve had sunburn on my hands twice in my life, and both times it made me miserable. The first time was in Mexico after a long fishing trip with friends. It ruined the rest of the trip. Even moving my fingers to eat or drink something was painful. The sun blisters weren’t pretty either.

The second time was in Asia. I thought spending my day off fishing would be a great experience (which it was) but it also meant that the last week of my trip was hell. I had to wear long sleeve shirts in the office, and the hems would rub against the back of my burnt hands. Pure torture.

UPF 50+ Fishing Gloves Scoring

If you plan on spending any real time out on the water, I highly recommend these UPF 50+ Fingerless Fishing Gloves. There are four seasons where I live, making these Fishing Gloves a critical, but seasonal part of my gear. Because of this, they are scoring a 200/100.

  • Pull On closure
  • Certified UPF 50+.
  • Protect skin form sunburn, and skin aging.
  • Ultra-Comfortable Ice Elastic Breathable Fabric.
  • Efficient 3/4 Finger Length.

UPF 50+ Sun Bandana

I love this UPF 50+ Sun Bandana because it keeps the sun off the back of my neck. When I can’t or don’t want to wear a Sun Protection Shirt Hoodie this UPF 50+ Sun Bandana is the perfect addition to any outside outfit.

I keep a Sun Bandana in my pocket when I’m hiking. When the sun comes up I wear wrap my Sun Bandana around my neck so I don’t end up with a burn on the back of my neck after a long day’s hiking. There is not quicker way to ruin a trip than being burnt and uncomfortable.

This Sun Bandana is also perfect for napping. I drape it over my eyes and face to not just block out the light, but also to keep me from burning.

When it comes to surviving in warm weather I prefer a multi layered strategy. Suntan lotion is great, but it wear out. There is also the risk that in a prolonged natural disaster or even just a long hiking trip, you won’t be able to resupply. Having backup sun protection that doesn’t wear off is critical to warm weather survival.

UPF 50+ Sun Bandana Scoring

When it comes to protecting yourself from the elements, this UPF 50+ Sun Bandana is just what you need regardless of the season. Sure, the summer sun may be the more obvious threat, but if you are hiking cross country in the winter, the sun is still just as dangerous. Because this Sun Bandana can improve your survival based on the situation, it is scoring a 405/1000.

  • UPF 50+
  • Blocks 98% of UVA/UVB rays
  • Engineered for cutting-edge performance and comfort.
  • Cooltect technology accelerates moisture wicking for a cooler experience.
  • Soft, lightweight, and breathable.
  • Moisture wicking and quick dry to keep you active all day.
  • Protection infused at the fiber level helps eliminate odor.
  • 24 inches X 24 inches.
  • Machine wash, tumble dry.
  • Not chlorine and salt water resistant or water repellent.

Tundra Ballistic Bib Overall

My Tundra Ballistic Bib Overall has lasted years. I’ve worn it through snowstorms, sleet and freezing rain, and just bitterly cold days and it has kept me warm throughout. If you are going to be dealing with cold weather, you can’t go wrong by putting on this Tundra Ballistic Bib Overall.

When you order your Tundra Ballistic Bib Overall remember to check your size, and go one bigger, especially if you expect really cold weather. The reason? You want to leave room for layers. Don’t worry about them falling off. They have over the shoulder straps, so even if you need take a few layers off they won’t fall off.

Unless you want to freeze when you need to be outside for extended periods of time, these Overalls are critical. They are designed to be durable and are great for cold weather camping, hiking, and hunting. I love to shoot clays, and some of the best days I’ve had at the range are cold and wet. There is just nothing like being out when everyone else stayed home. It makes me feel like I have the whole place to myself.

Conclusion

When you need to stay warm in the coldest weather, be prepared for the snow and biting winds with these Tundra Ballistic Bib Overalls. I’ve found that paring these Overalls with my Columbia Watertight Jacket gives me protection down to below freezing. After that I switch out the lighter jacket for a winter jacket and heavy gloves and I’m good to go into the negative digits.

Be prepared for cold weather survival, keep a set of these Overalls with your gear!

Columbia Watertight Jacket

There is nothing more refreshing than being on hike when a rain squall comes in and cools you off. That part is always nice. It isn’t so nice when the temperature drops a few degrees and that cooling rain turns into a chilly, warmth sucking drain, which is where this Columbia Watertight Jacket saves the day. It is light enough to carry everywhere, and perfect to shield you against the cold rains that sap your strength.

I keep a Columbia Watertight Jacket in my vehicle. No matter what the weather is, I’m prepared to deal with it. If you have my luck, you only ever have vehicle trouble when it is raining. It is also when my buddies usually call me to help them get there boat out of the water before the storm really hits. Which is why I keep the gear I need to handle a wide range of weather conditions in my vehicle. With a baseball cap and the hood of this Columbia Watertight Jacket up I can keep my head dry and my glasses clear, which is always a bonus. It’s a lot harder to keep your footing if your getting pelted in the eyes with rain.

Even when the temperatures drop I can combine this Columbia Watertight Jacket with a sweater and its Watertight shell gives me decent coverage down to about freezing. I am a bigger guy, so part of that might be some extra insulation on my part as well – but I’m way better off with this Jacket than I am without it.

Columbia Watertight Jacket Scoring

The weather can change in an instant. Don’t let it catch you off guard without the gear you need to survive it. Because this Jacket can have a high impact on your survival, it is scoring a 805/1000.

  • Durable, waterproof nylon shell.
  • Comfy and warm.
  • Shell: 100% Nylon; Lining: 100% Polyester
  • Zipper closure
  • Machine Wash
