Buff UVX Mask Review


A gorgeous weekend in central Texas opened up an opportunity to get out on the water and I was sure to take advantage of it. Fishing in January is not something I am used to and I definitely need to learn some winter time tactics if I actually want to catch some fish; sadly I caught zero, skunk city. I did however get a chance to use some great products I got as gifts for Christmas. One such item is the Buff UVX Mask. Not just your ordinary piece of fabric that fishermen wear around their necks, the UVX mask is purpose built for all around protection. The biggest advantage to the UVX mask is the ability to tuck it under your shirt. If your wearing a collared shirt, no big deal, but I usually wear a moisture wicking long/short sleeve and I would routinely get sun burn on my neck where my previous Buff failed to cover. Another added feature is the breath holes that don't fog your sun glasses up as much. It doesn't completely stop it, but the holes are sure better than just a solid piece of fabric. Lastly, the UVX is super soft and has extra material that clings to the back of your head for the perfect fit. Little touches, but these added features put the Buff UVX Mask above all others. If you are fair skinned and don't play nice with the sun like me, the Buff UVX Mask is a perfect option for all day comfort and sun protection for fellow kayak anglers.
