? Lifestyle FAQ 

Can I wear this for hiking or gardening? Absolutely. The 115gsm super lightweight fabric is specifically designed for high-heat activities. The 8.2cm wicking height ensures that even if you’re working hard in the yard or on the trail, the moisture evaporates rapidly, leaving you dry and comfortable.

Why is the Australian sun harsher than the rest of the world? Answer: Due to our proximity to the ozone hole and the Earth's orbit, UV levels here are up to 15% higher than in Europe. This is why we test to the specific Australian Standard AS 4399:2020.

Is clothing safer than sunscreen following the 2025 product recalls? Answer: Recent independent reports from Choice found that many SPF 50+ sunscreens in Australia didn't meet their advertised protection levels, leading to widespread recalls. Unlike sunscreen—which can be applied too thinly, wash off with sweat, or fail testing—Hooked Gear clothing provides a physical, permanent barrier. With our ARPANSA-certified fabric, the protection is "set in stone" and won't fail you when you need it most.
