NASH ZT Lite Loom Neck Gaiter Snood

Product highlights

The NASH ZT Lite Loom Snood is a fishing neck gaiter specifically designed for hot, intensely sunny climates. With its UPF50+ sun protection, it helps effectively shield the face, neck and head from UV rays during long sessions by the water. Its lightweight, comfortable design makes it a discreet but essential ally to stay focused on fishing rather than the risk of sunburn.

Made from an ultra-thin textile, this breathable snood allows air to circulate while creating a barrier against the wind. It reduces the stifling heat often felt during summer days, especially when fishing from a boat or in direct sun. Its quick-drying fabric rapidly wicks moisture—whether from sweat, spray or splashes—to maintain lasting comfort.

Technical specifications

This snood has been engineered to offer maximum protection with minimal bulk, so it easily fits into any fishing bag.

Benefits and key strengths

Wearing this UV protection neck gaiter extends fishing sessions in full sun by reducing the risk of sunburn and heatstroke. By protecting highly exposed areas like the nape, ears and lower face, the angler can focus on strategy, casting accuracy and monitoring fish activity without being bothered by sunburn or gusts of wind.

Its versatility is a true asset: it can be used as a face mask, headband, neck protection or head cover depending on current needs. Lightweight and compressible, it disappears when not in use and deploys in an instant as soon as the sun becomes too strong. It is a simple but extremely effective accessory for any activity requiring reliable sun protection by the water or while sailing.

Usage tips

To make the most of the snood, place it around the neck, then pull it up over the lower face, ears or top of the head according to sun exposure. When radiation is particularly intense, it is recommended to cover sensitive areas as much as possible and to complement protection with a cap or wide-brim hat.

On the hottest days, you can slightly dampen the snood to enjoy an additional cooling effect while still benefiting from its breathability. After the session, allow it to dry completely before folding and storing. Clean according to the general care instructions for technical fabrics to preserve its sun protection properties and longevity.
