Lightweight. Powerful. Planet-friendly. The HaliBorealis Hooded Sunshirt is our lightest performance layer yet — reimagined in our Haliborealis pattern, where deep ocean hues meet aurora-like movement for a bold, water-inspired statement.
Crafted from 100% recycled polyester, this sunshirt does more than just protect — it performs. Built for long days on the water, the trail, or wherever the sun finds you, it delivers UPF 50+ sun protection and quick-dry comfort to keep you cool when the heat is on.
Movement is everything. That’s why we designed it with raglan sleeves for full mobility and thumbholes to keep your sleeves locked in when you're casting or paddling. The streamlined hood offers extra shade without extra bulk, complete with a pony-tail opening for effortless hair management on windy days.
The Haliborealis pattern brings the piece to life — a fluid blend of color and motion inspired by cold water, big fish, and northern skies.
Whether you're hiking into remote waters or soaking up rays at your local spot, this top is the lightest, most breathable layer in your kit — with eco-conscious construction that aligns with your values.
Easy on, never in the way, and always ready. The HaliBorealis Hooded Sunshirt proves that lightweight layers can still go heavy on performance.

HaliBorealis
A true Alaskan tribute, this design celebrates the spirit of the Last Frontier through one of its most iconic fish—the Halibut. We wove the fish’s powerful silhouette into the rugged outline of Alaska’s mountains, pairing it with the flowing, ethereal movement of the Northern Lights. Swirls of color mimic the magic and motion of the aurora, bringing the night sky and the wilderness to life in every detail. The name is a playful nod to the Aurora Borealis, capturing both the wonder of our long summer nights and the bold, untamed energy of Alaska itself.

There’s Room for You Here
Come As You Are
First cast or fiftieth, pull up a spot on the bank. A good day outside gets even better when more of us share it.
Color Belongs Out Here
Fishe’s original prints draw from fish, water, and the wild places we love. They’re one way we help women show up outside as themselves.
Open More Doors
Sometimes an opportunity starts with a simple invitation. We show up for events and causes that help more women find their place outdoors.
Bring Someone Along
Share a tip. Make a plan. Invite the friend who’s been waiting to try. The best stories grow when we make room for one more.

Where it began
One Sketch. Many Ways In.
Fishe began in Alaska when Linda Leary imagined fishing gear for women with function and personality. That first idea has grown through the women who wear Fishe, share what they know, and welcome someone new to the water.
The art of Fishe
The Wild Has More Than One Color.
The flash of a fish. The bend of a river. A place you keep thinking about long after you’ve gone home. Moments like these inspire Fishe’s original prints, brought to life by women artists. Their work gives us another way to carry the outdoors with us.
Fishe for Good
Make Room on the Bank.
Not everyone gets an invitation outdoors. Sometimes it takes a class, a shared tip, or someone saying, “Come with us.” Fishe supports events and causes that help more women find that opening and feel welcome when they get there. The water is better when more of us belong.
Love the fit and feel of the material. It’s not clingy and very breathable. Love the pattern and colors too. I wear it kayaking and around town. An A+!
Working on the ramp parking wildfire fire fighting airtankers in 90-100+ degrees, this hoodie was a game changer. I felt cooler in the shirt than without it and compared to similar shirts i own the fabric on this one is so soft. The ponytail hole made it so the hood fit my head better and no sun burn on my scalp. Will definitely be buying another one.
I ordered this for a river trip I am about to embark upon. The Fishe team made sure it got to my home with plenty of time to spare, which I appreciate immensely! It is by far the lightest sun shirt in my bag. I just love the artwork on it as well.
Note to users: I had ordered a L and an XL. The L fit well with the exception that the sleeves felt short, so I kept the XL (I’m 5’7” for reference). Can’t wait to wear it on the river!
Absolutely love this shirt. Top notch quality! Beautiful and vibrant design. Light and airy, perfect for long Summer days on the water or any outdoor activity for that matter. Ponytail holes…where have you been all my life? 💙🩵
I LOVE THIS SHIRT! I ordered a size up because I don't like to feel restricted. I have been spending allot of time on the water with my grandson, and this shirt has saved my skin from baking to a crisp. It is cool, light and just what I needed.
I have been on a mission to find decent plus size sun hoodies (which is harder than it should be). I have 6 from different brands now but this is my favorite in terms of coverage and durability and second favorite by weight. Maybe a little too warm for the hottest of hot days, but perfectly fine for ~85 and below. Well made, beautiful colors, TRUE TO SIZE (2X). Would absolutely recommend and buy again.
Amazing customer service and great quality shirt. The print is just as pictured and just beautiful. Shipping carrier delayed my first shipment (they showed it stuck at a warehouse) and Fische responded quickly. They sent me replacement shirt in time for the trip. It was very easy to reach them. Honestly so happy I chose them, as we ordered this shirt in matching outfits for an event and it would have been a big disappointment having to wear something else.
The shirt itself has good stretch and the material is much nicer than the regular sun shirts. Its worth the price.
Great hoody. Very soft fabric. Size small works well for me—5’8” and 132 lbs, small chest. I have long arms and the sleeve length is fine, and I do appreciate thumb holes! I use it for paddling and hiking.
My photographer friend was wearing Fishe shirts on a recent excursion. It was so bright with a soft light fabric. Of course, I had to have one!! I ordered before the end of the trip. I haven’t gotten to take it out into the field yet. It is comparable to Kuhl and Columbia but way more interesting.
