Stop Worrying About Sunburns
Every hour on the water is another hour of UV exposure. Sunburns, premature aging, and skin cancer risk add up fast.
The Helios blocks 98% of harmful UV rays with UPF 50+ protection - the highest rating available. Unlike sunscreen that washes off, sweats away, or needs reapplying every 2 hours, Helios protection lasts all day. Just put it on and fish.
Stay Cool When It Gets Hot
Regular long sleeves trap heat against your body. By mid-morning, you're drenched and miserable.
The Helios is engineered with mesh ventilation panels that let heat escape while you move. Moisture-wicking fabric pulls sweat away from your skin and dries in minutes. No more sticky, heavy shirts ruining your day on the water.
Built to Last, Priced to Own
Cheap sun shirts fall apart after a few washes. Premium brands charge $70-100 and aren't any better.
The Helios gives you tournament-grade performance at $49.95 - and backs it with a 99-day money-back guarantee. Stain-resistant, odor-resistant, wrinkle-free. Machine wash, tumble dry, done.

FAQs
What is the UPF on your shirts and what does it mean?
The shirts are UPF 50 – UPF 50+ which means over 98% of the harmful UV rays from the sun are blocked. UPF 30 would be about 96%.
How do you wash WindRider shirts?
The shirts can be washed and dried normally, but we do recommend tumble drying on low for your dryer to help keep them looking their best.
What is the warranty on your shirts?
We offer a 99 Day Money back Guarantee on our Helios shirts.
Are WindRider shirts bug repellent?
Some customers do say the material of our shirts do help against biting bugs but there isn't technically anything in the fabric that is a bug repellent.
