Fishing

A full day of fishing on Saudi Arabia's coastlines demands more from clothing and footwear than most outdoor gear is designed to deliver. Sustained UV intensity, persistent heat, saltwater spray, wet boat decks, and hours of standing in direct sun combine into conditions that expose the limits of standard shirts and casual shoes within the first session. Columbia's Performance Fishing Gear — PFG — is the brand's dedicated fishing line, built specifically around what time on the water actually requires: sun protection woven into the fabric that doesn't wash off, ventilation systems that drive airflow during active use, water-ready shoes with genuine deck grip, and quick-dry constructions that recover in minutes rather than hours. Across 61 products for men, women, and kids, the fishing collection covers the Red Sea coast, the Arabian Gulf, and every offshore and nearshore fishing destination Saudi anglers frequent.

PFG Bahama™ II — Saudi Arabia's Most-Worn Fishing Shirt

The PFG Bahama II is Columbia's most consistently chosen fishing shirt — a long-sleeve and short-sleeve button-down engineered for sustained outdoor use in hot, humid conditions that mirror what Saudi Arabia's coastlines consistently produce across the fishing season. One hundred percent Tactel® nylon construction is inherently lightweight and quick-drying, managing moisture continuously during active use without the clammy, heavy feel of cotton in heat and humidity. Hidden shoulder vents open airflow channels across the upper back and shoulders — the areas where heat accumulates most intensely during long open-water sessions — while a mesh-lined back yoke drives passive ventilation across the spine. Omni-Shade™ Broad Spectrum UPF 50 protection blocks a wide range of UVA and UVB rays at the fabric level, delivering continuous sun coverage across a full day on the Red Sea or Arabian Gulf where sunscreen washes off in sweat and sea spray within the first hour and cannot be reliably maintained across a long session. Dual chest pockets with lift-top access, rod-holder loops on the shoulder, and a relaxed fit that accommodates casting motion complete a fishing shirt that earns permanent place in a Saudi angler's kit. Available in white, beige, blue, and green across long-sleeve and short-sleeve formats — the fishing clothes benchmark for every session from Jeddah's waterfront to offshore Gulf fishing.

PFG Wild Cast™ — Technical Fishing Sun Shirts

The PFG Wild Cast collection is the most technically advanced fishing apparel line in the Saudi Arabia range — shirts, sun shirts, and shorts built for serious angling use where every detail of the construction serves a specific function on the water. The Men's PFG Wild Cast Sun Shirt uses Omni-Shade™ Broad Spectrum UPF protection in a lightweight woven construction with a longer hem and secure pocket layout suited to full-day offshore and nearshore fishing use. The Women's Wild Cast Sun Shirt Top and Wild Cast Long Sleeve Shirt bring the same technical sun protection into women's-specific fishing shirts in white, blue, purple, and green — genuine fishing clothes for Saudi women who fish regularly rather than casual outdoor shirts repurposed for waterside use. The Men's PFG Wild Cast Long Sleeve and Short Sleeve Shirts extend the range with PFG-specific construction across additional colourways including brown and blue. The PFG Wild Cast Shorts complete the Wild Cast fishing system for the lower body — quick-dry, Omni-Shield™ Advanced Repellency fabric in black and brown suited to active use on boat decks, waterfront docks, and coastal outdoor settings across Saudi Arabia's two coastlines.

Fishing Shoes — Built for Deck and Water Use

Fishing footwear serves a brief that trail shoes and casual sneakers are not designed around — grip on wet boat decks, fast water drainage when the shoe gets wet, comfort across a full day of standing on a moving surface, and non-marking outsoles that protect boat deck finishes. The Men's Drainmaker XTR Shoes are the most capable fishing shoe in the collection: a vented TechLite™ midsole with drainage ports in the heel and forefoot lets water flow through and out of the shoe rather than pooling inside, a quick-dry mesh upper sheds moisture within minutes, and Omni-Grip™ non-marking traction rubber grips wet boat surfaces, slick dock planking, and rocky shoreline without leaving marks. Available in black, grey, and blue across men's sizes. The Women's Drainmaker XTR Shoes bring the same fishing-specific engineering into women's sizes in white and blue. The Men's PFG Boatside Relaxed Shoes provide a slip-on alternative for dock and waterfront use in beige and grey — a casual boating shoe with Omni-Grip™ LT lightweight traction for boat-to-dock transitions across Saudi marina and waterfront settings. The Men's PFG Whipray Shoes sit at the technical performance ceiling of the fishing footwear range — purpose-built for serious angling use with maximum deck grip and water performance for Saudi men who fish offshore regularly. The Women's Bonehead LEA Shoe completes the women's fishing footwear range in white.

Water Shorts for Fishing & Coastal Activity

Columbia's PFG water shorts cover the lower-body fishing requirement — quick-dry constructions that handle repeated water exposure, active movement across a boat deck, and long outdoor hours in Saudi Arabia's coastal heat. The Men's PFG Super Backcast II Water Shorts are the most technically capable in the range — quick-dry fabric, built-in mesh brief for support, and a secure waistband suited to active fishing sessions in blue and green. The Men's PFG Rambler Printed Water Shorts add a printed pattern option in blue for coastal casual wear that crosses between fishing days and waterfront leisure. The Men's PFG Wild Cast Shorts bring heavier nylon construction with Omni-Shield™ repellency in black and brown for fishing use that extends from the boat deck to waterfront settings across Saudi Arabia's Red Sea and Gulf coasts. For families, the Kids' CSC x Disney PFG Rambler Water Shorts and Toddler CSC x Disney PFG Rambler Water Shorts extend quick-dry, water-ready construction to younger family members in a Disney-collaboration blue colourway — the kids' fishing shorts for family boat days along Saudi Arabia's coastlines and at resort waterfront destinations.

Fishing Accessories — Sun Hats & PFG Caps

Columbia's fishing accessories cover the head and face protection that a Saudi fishing day in open sun demands — conditions where partial coverage is insufficient and where UV accumulation across a full session causes more long-term damage than most anglers plan for. The Wild Cast Booney Hat is the standout sun accessory — a wide-brim hat in beige with Omni-Shade™ UPF protection that shades the face, ears, and neck simultaneously in the all-around coverage format that no ball cap can replicate across a long outdoor water session. The Wild Cast Booney Hat premium variant adds a higher-specification construction for Saudi anglers who prioritise maximum sun coverage in the most complete protective format available. The PFG Elite 3D Stretch Snap Back Cap provides structured ball cap coverage with a PFG-branded front panel in blue and green for the classic fishing cap look. The PFG Uncharted II Snap Back Hat in white and PFG Logo Mesh Ball Cap in grey complete the fishing headwear range across snap-back and classic ball cap formats — every head coverage option a Saudi angler might need from a single collection.

Women's Fishing Apparel & Family PFG Styles

Columbia's women's fishing range covers everything from technical fishing shirts to casual waterfront wear suitable for family boat days and coastal outings. The Women's PFG Open Water Short Sleeve T-Shirt brings PFG-branded casual fishing apparel in black and green — a relaxed tee suited to light fishing days and waterfront casual use along Saudi Arabia's coastal destinations. The Women's CSC x Disney PFG Super Slack Tide Shirt offers a Disney-collaboration casual fishing shirt in blue — relaxed and visually engaging while retaining PFG's quick-dry, water-ready construction underneath. The Women's CSC x Disney PFG Rugged Water Shorts complete the women's fishing water short range with quick-dry, activity-suited construction in the Disney collaboration blue — fishing and waterside shorts for Saudi women and girls who spend time on the water with family across the Kingdom's coastal destinations.

What Saudi Fishing Conditions Demand From Gear

Fishing along Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast and Arabian Gulf coastline involves a specific combination of environmental demands that standard outdoor clothing handles poorly. UV intensity across both coastlines is among the highest in the world year-round — a full day of open-water fishing without proper fabric sun protection accumulates significant skin damage even on overcast days when UV radiation scatters rather than reducing. Saltwater spray and boat deck moisture mean clothing and footwear need to dry fast and resist the stiffening and deterioration that salt causes in non-purpose fabrics over time. Boat deck grip is a safety requirement as much as a performance one — a shoe that loses traction on a wet fibreglass deck in open water is a genuine hazard. Heat and humidity along both coasts extend across most of the year, making ventilation systems in fishing shirts a comfort essential rather than a bonus feature. Columbia's PFG range addresses each of these requirements at the fabric, construction, and design level — fishing clothes and fishing shoes that were developed around water-specific use rather than adapted from general outdoor apparel for the purpose.
