Simms Lightweight Guide Bugstopper Shirt - XL

The Bugstopper® Insect Shield® is built into the fabric and is designed to last for the lifetime of the shirt, resisting washing and wear.

Yes, the EPA-approved Insect Shield® treatment is bound to fabric fibers, meaning it stays on the garment and away from your skin.

It is effective against mosquitos, ticks, ants, chiggers, flies, and other biting insects.

It is recommended to use a mild, liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and powdered detergents, as they can affect the fabric and the insect shield treatment.

The shirt is available in Dolomite and Willow Heather colors, and sizes ranging from Medium to XLarge.

No, this shirt is not waterproof. It is made from lightweight, fast-drying polyester designed for breathability and comfort during outdoor activities.

Yes, the sleeves are adjustable and designed to be easily rolled up and secured for convenient ventilation.

Ensure the shirt is not overloaded with moisture. If sweating heavily, allow it to air dry completely or use a low heat setting in the dryer. Ensure the fabric's wicking properties are not compromised by heavy residue from incorrect detergent use.

The Bugstopper® treatment is designed to last the lifetime of the garment with proper care. Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive heat. If significant wear and tear is apparent, the garment may be nearing the end of its effective lifespan.

Gently work the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. A small amount of zipper lubricant or wax can be applied sparingly if necessary, avoiding contact with the main fabric.
