Blocker Outdoors’ new Shield Reliant Shirt and Pant feature cooling, antimicrobial effectiveness and
more for early season hunts
MUSKEGON, MI (September 10, 2025) – The season often starts hot for hunters who embrace opening
day. Hopefully, hot means success in your neck of the woods. But for this discourse, we’re talking temps,
like sweat-pouring afternoons in the 70s, maybe 80’s, even escorted by subtropic humidity. It happens…
That beautiful, matched Blocker jacket and bib you were gifted last Christmas will surely come into play,
but later, when temperatures come down a bit. For the current situation, you’ll be glad to know Blocker
tenders the new, awesome, affordable, and seasonably appropriate Shield Reliant Shirt and Pant.
“These are perfect for the season that’s right around the corner, even started for some,” said Blocker
Outdoors Marketing Director, Steve Allie. “And the good news is the Shield Reliant Shirt and Pant are
available right now!”
The Shield Reliant Shirt delivers advanced functionality in a lightweight, breathable package. Engineered
with touch-activated cooling technology, this shirt reacts to your body heat—offering refreshing comfort
when conditions heat up.
The lightweight Shield Reliant pant utilizes a stretch poly and spandex material, combining durability
with exceptional stretchability. Tailored for early-to-mid-season hunts, its design accommodates base
layers for colder weather while featuring zip hip vents for ventilation in warmer conditions. Enhanced
with our S3® Anti-microbial treatment, these pants can handle extended use in the field without
accumulating unwanted odors, even after multiple days of wear.
At the scientific core of the Shield Reliant Shirt and Pant is Blocker Outdoors’ S3® Silver Antimicrobial
technology, whereby fabric threads are impregnated with silver ions that bind to and penetrate the
surface of odor-causing bacteria on contact. Silver ions disrupt the microbe’s DNA, preventing the
formation of odor and keeping your garments fresher for longer.
