Dry Lite Fabric for Lightweight, Quick-Drying Comfort

Lightweight and breathable, it combines moisture-wicking and quick-drying performance with four-way stretch for comfortable movement. Dry Lite fabric is independently tested and rated UPF 50+. The source also identifies OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification; confirm that the current certification applies to the exact product, fabric, colour and style before publication.
Men's UPF 50+ Long-Sleeve Shirts for Active Days
For bushwalking, walking, fishing, gardening, travel and outdoor work, Dry Lite provides lightweight coverage without a heavy feel. Our sun protection clothing for men combines breathable, quick-drying fabric with stretch for active days outdoors. The Everyday Performance Sun Shirt features a stand collar, chest pocket and adjustable sleeves, while the Hiking Shirt adds front pockets, hidden shoulder vents and underarm laser-cut ventilation for more active pursuits.
The right Dry Lite shirt depends on where you'll wear it and which features matter most to you. When comparing men's sun protection clothing, consider fit, collar coverage, pocket space, ventilation and the convenience of convertible sleeves.
