  • Lightweight Material

    Our shirts are made of a lightweight, cool 165gm polyester mesh material which is different from the usual fishing/outdoor shirt material. This fabric is specifically designed to keep you cool and comfortable while you're out in the sun, making it perfect for all-day wear.

  • High Sun Protection

    We understand the importance of sun protection while enjoying outdoor activities. That's why our shirts are designed with a high ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) of 50+. This level of protection helps to shield your skin from harmful UV rays that can cause sunburn, premature aging, and even skin cancer.

  • UVA and UVB Protection

    Our shirts are also designed to protect against both UVA and UVB rays. UVA rays are responsible for causing skin aging and wrinkles, while UVB rays cause sunburn and can lead to skin cancer. With our shirts, you can enjoy your outdoor activities with confidence, knowing that your skin is protected from both types of harmful rays.

Our Why

At The Dirty Oar, our journey began with a deeply personal mission: to combat skin cancer.

After I was diagnosed with skin cancer, I realised the urgent need for more education on sun safety, especially for those who love spending time outdoors.

This inspired us to create high-quality, stylish fishing gear that offers maximum sun protection. But we didn’t stop there—knowing the impact skin cancer has on countless lives, we committed to donating a percentage of all sales to skin cancer research.

Our goal is to not only keep our customers safe in the sun but also to support the vital work being done to find a cure. Together, we're fishing with a mission, making every catch count towards a brighter, healthier future.

Fish For A Cure

Did you know 2 out of 3 Australians will be diagnosed with some form of skin cancer before the age of 70.

At The Dirty Oar we are on a mission to bring these numbers down.

With every purchase you make we donate a portion of every sale to The Australian Skin Cancer Foundation.
