Orvis Open Air Caster UPF 40+ Vented Long Sleeve Fishing Button Down in Orange White — Size Small // Preowned
Orvis is a venerable American outdoor and fly-fishing heritage brand with over 160 years of history — a label whose technical apparel line is built to the standards of serious anglers and outdoor enthusiasts who demand genuine performance from their clothing in the field, and whose fishing shirts occupy some of the most technically capable territory in the outdoor performance shirt market. The Open Air Caster Long Sleeve Button Down is Orvis's most ventilated and technically engineered fishing shirt construction — a Polyester-Nylon performance woven specifically designed for high-heat, high-activity outdoor and fishing contexts where sun protection, airflow, and moisture management are functional requirements rather than marketing claims. This shirt arrives preowned in good condition with no flaws.
The 52% Polyester, 48% Nylon construction is a technically considered specification for a high-performance outdoor fishing shirt. The Polyester component delivers moisture-wicking capability and quick-dry performance that removes perspiration from the skin rapidly in the high-activity, sun-exposed conditions that fishing and outdoor wear produce — keeping the wearer dry and comfortable through conditions where a Cotton shirt would absorb and hold moisture against the skin. The 48% Nylon component adds the durability, abrasion resistance, and structural integrity that a fishing shirt subjected to the physical demands of casting, brush, and outdoor environments requires — Nylon is the fiber choice that gives the Open Air Caster its long-term field durability. The mesh-lined back cape is the defining ventilation feature that earns the Open Air Caster its name: a large-scale mesh-lined panel across the back that allows active airflow to circulate when moving, delivering measurably improved cooling in direct sun and warm outdoor conditions. The vented chest adds a second airflow pathway at the front. The UPF 40+ sun protection is a genuine technical specification — blocking the majority of UV radiation and meaningfully reducing sun exposure over the course of a full day on the water. The roll-up sleeve tabs allow the long sleeves to be converted to short sleeves when conditions demand. The concealed button-down collar lies flat without the button-down tab showing. The Orange and White colorway is a high-visibility, warm-water fishing palette that reads with confidence on and off the water. Style #4A38.

Style & Care
The Orange and White colorway and Orvis Open Air Caster technical construction make this shirt a purpose-built piece for serious fishing and warm-weather outdoor activity — wear it on the water where the mesh-lined back cape, vented chest, and UPF 40+ sun protection work together to keep you cooler and better protected through a full day of direct sun exposure than any Cotton shirt in the same situation, roll the sleeves up via the tab system when conditions are at their warmest and drop them back down when the sun is highest and UV protection matters most, or wear it as a casual outdoor shirt on hiking, camping, and outdoor travel where the Orvis heritage and Orange colorway read as considered and outdoors-authentic.

• Care: Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle; hang to dry or tumble dry low. The Polyester-Nylon construction is highly wash-stable — avoid high heat and fabric softener to preserve the moisture-wicking performance, the UPF 40+ sun protection treatment, and the integrity of the Orange and White colorway across wears.
