Incredibly happy with these. I bought a few for trail running, hiking and working in the yard. They breathe incredibly well, block the sun nicely and don’t snag like some sun clothing tends to do. They run slightly large, but most sun clothing seems to. The thumb holes are clutch to reduce knuckle and finger sun burn on long outings above tree line.

I used it all activities. Running in Chicago springs, kayak and hiking in Protugal, and if it's a little cold morning, I wear under merino wool base layer. Superb comfortable. Not holding sweat and dry super fast after washing. I will buy more.

Great shirt and just what I needed
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought:
- XXL

My daughter shows horses, and I wanted something I could wear outside all day at a horse show to protect from sun and bugs, but would be cool enough for the TX heat. So far, I am very impressed with the shirt. I purchased a XXL and I am 6'1". The shirt is long enough in the body that when I raise my arms overhead it comes to my waist keeping everything covered. The sleeves are longer to allow use of the thumb holes, which works fine for me. The material is light and and I cannot imagine anything lighter that would still provide adequate protection. This shirt does exactly what I needed it to do and will purchase a few more.

This is my go to base layer; no matter what the season or activity! This and a pair of bibs makes a great touring kit. For days on the river, be sure to pack few Tahoes with you. Working in the yard? Tahoe sun hoodie time. I probably own this in 4 different colors and I will keep adding to my repertoire. You can wear this every day of the year. Does fit a bit big, and i like a loose fit. Sleeves were a good length and it comes down a few inches below my belt.

I love these things! I have every color, and I wear them daily in the summer. They dry quickly, fit well (a little on the looser side of things), and they look great. The material is super soft, they stretch just enough while you move, and the hood has a nice rounded fit without being too baggy. Overall, these have quickly become my go-to summer shirt!

After too many scorching days on the trail I have been searching for the best sun hoodie for me. I am a woman and have been testing XL in men's sizes. (I prefer a baggier fit and have a tall frame.) I got the Winter Sky color which is a bright light baby blue. This SPF hoodie has very long sleeves which put it above Outdoor Research's hoodies for me - those barely came to my wrists. It is also long overall (covers my butt, comes to the hips in front too) which I think makes it less flattering on me. I enjoy the weaved texture of the fabric and it feels good against my skin. As long as there's a breeze, it helps ventilate and keep you cool. Unfortunately, doing some bushwhacking, the bottom seam got easily torn up. It also has some stains from sweat and dirt and holds some stink though I do sweat a lot... Overall it's functional but I'm going to keep looking. If it comes back in stock in Smoke Gray I might consider getting a second one.

Great Sun hoodie

Really not a fan of / can never remember to put on sunscreen so for long days outside, whether it be a hike, walking 9 holes of golf, or spring skiing, this thing is great!
