Introduction: Huk is well known for building performance-driven
apparel designed to keep anglers protected and comfortable on the water, and at
ICAST 2025 the company rolled out a number of new products spanning technical,
lifestyle, and footwear categories.

The Andros hoodie features a
jacquard fabric that is both light and breathable. As usual the patterns that
Huk offers look great
Andros Collection: The new Andros Hoodie takes its cues from the
sweltering heat and humidity of the Bahamas. Constructed from an
ultra-comfortable jacquard fabric, it delivers lightweight breathability and UPF
40 sun protection. Priced at $80 and available in sizes S-XXXL, the Andros is
built with fly anglers in mind but extends well beyond that application. Its
combination of airflow and sun coverage makes it equally appealing to bass
anglers and outdoor enthusiasts looking for reliable comfort in hot, sunny
environments.

Anglers looking for a traditional
button down angling shirt will like the breathable and stretchable Next Level
Shirt. It is crafted from a mix of cotton, polyester, and spandex and is light
and has a 30+ UPF rating

I really liked the Watershed
hooded shirt which is a blend of a shirt and hoodie made from a polyester and
spandex blend
Watershed Hooded Shirt: For anglers seeking year-round performance, Huk
introduced the Watershed Hooded Shirt. Featuring Dricomfort technology, this
shirt regulates body temperature while wicking away moisture and offering UPF
50+ protection. Made from a polyester/spandex blend, the Watershed also
integrates a zippered chest pocket, antimicrobial fabric, and a drawcord hood
for added coverage. Available in sizes S-XXXL, with a MSRP $70.

The material helps wick away
moisture while helping regulate body temperature. Personally I love a shirt with
an integrated hood
Icon Pro Pant: Huk's new Icon Pro Pant was designed with input from the
company's pro staff and captains to withstand long days on the water.
Constructed from lightweight nylon, the pant delivers 50+ UPF protection, a DWR
finish, and 4-way stretch durability. Purpose-built storage solutions, including
a tear-resistant pliers pocket, make this an angler-focused design. Priced at
$80, the Icon Pro stood out to me as especially well-suited for bass anglers who
spend long hours exposed to the sun. Beyond the stain resistance and water
repellency, what impressed me most was the comfort - the stretch fabric provides
excellent freedom of movement for casting and fighting fish -while the abundance
of well-positioned pockets adds real utility.

Huk has always offered some
excellent fishing shorts ranging from the very technical...

...to lighter more casual pieces for those days on the
beach
Camp Shirt: While Huk built its reputation on technical fishing apparel,
the brand has also made a strong push into lifestyle gear. The new Camp Shirt
blends laid-back style with functional features, thanks to its lightweight
polyester/cotton/spandex construction. It provides UPF 30+ sun protection, dries
quickly, and offers 4-way stretch for comfort. A built-in microfiber wipe adds a
practical touch for keeping sunglasses clean. Available in sizes S-XXXL and
priced at $70, this shirt feels like a natural fit for trips to the Bahamas or
Hawaii - easygoing, functional, and full of coastal vibe.

a laid back cut
Leather Rogue Wave Boot: Expanding their footwear lineup, Huk introduced
the Leather Rogue Wave Boot, built for all-weather performance with a waterproof
leather upper and durable rubber shell. A Grip-X non-marking outsole provides
traction both on deck and ashore, while an 8mm EVA molded footbed delivers
cushioning and arch support.

The Wave Boot offers the
durability of leather without the normal weight
Reinforced pull-straps make entry and removal easy, and at 38 oz per pair (size
9) the boots balance rugged durability with surprising wearability. Offered in
sizes 7-14 and priced at $150, the Leather Rogue Wave stands out for its comfort
- while many leather boots can feel heavy and stiff, these felt noticeably
lighter and more flexible, emphasizing all-day comfort.

marking sole
Lifestyle Apparel for Women - Sandbar Dress: Rounding out the new
introductions is Huk's Sandbar Dress, a piece that blends coastal lifestyle
appeal with subtle technical performance. Designed with women anglers and
outdoor enthusiasts in mind, the dress features a semi-fitted outer layer over a
fully lined bodysuit with integrated shorts for comfort and mobility.

Christie Moye at HUK showed us a
number of cool pieces for women ranging from the Sandbar dress to very angling
application specific pieces
Drop-in storage pockets add practical utility, while the breathable
nylon/spandex construction ensures all-day wearability. Measuring 27" in length,
the Sandbar transitions seamlessly from a day on the beach or boat to evenings
on the town. Offered in sizes XS-XXL and priced at $85, this release reflects
Huk's growing commitment to designing more apparel specifically for women,
expanding beyond performance tops into versatile lifestyle garments that are
equally at home on and off the water.

Huk offers many of their most
technical garments in styles for women

This ICAST Huk launched a range of new pieces targeting
anglers on and off the water
Our Quick Take: This ICAST Huk continued to evolve its lineup with
technical gear built for anglers who demand protection and comfort in extreme
environments, while also expanding lifestyle offerings that feel just as natural
off the water. The new introductions at ICAST highlight the brand's focus on
versatility - whether you're fishing under the hot sun, braving wet conditions,
or simply relaxing dockside. Of all the additions, the two pieces that stood out
most to me were the Andros Hoodie and the Icon Pro Pant, both packed with
performance-driven features and smart storage solutions. Each looks
purpose-built to keep anglers protected, comfortable, and moving freely during
those long, hot days on the water.
