Best trail running sun hoodie!
I bought this from Cotopaxi on a whim. Originally purchased for working outside here in Colorado during the warm months. I have since left that career and now have been wearing it on my trail runs. I have 3 sun hoodies. This one tops the other 2, which are the Patagonia and even REI sun hoodie. The REI version hood does not stay on your head when running. I have zero issues with this sun hoodie and the one review on here who says it’s boxy, well in my opinion a boxy design allows for more fabric to be loose, which helps with ventilation. With UPF 50, it’s the perfect hoodie for everything from water sports to alpine summits. I’ll be buying more of these.
Great shirt, with a few exceptions
Great lightweight sun shirt. Fits well, arms are a good size. Sleeves seem to have a slight flare at the cuff. Pocket on the back/side looks cool but is basically pointless. The hood on mine has a strange lump in the seam which makes the front of the hood not lay flat on my head.
Love the fit and feel
I love the fit of their long sleeve garments. I have broader shoulders and that usually affect the fit of the sleeves - there is enough room in the shoulders and the sleeves are long enough that I am not having to constantly tug them down. I am on the border between a large and an extra large - it is perfect cut - I appreciate it not feeling like a sack hanging on me, yet not showing the extra 10 lbs I am carrying. I don't usually wear hoodies but I don't even notice it with the lightweight fabric. I actually love the color. It is very blue, so you are not going to blend in. I would buy again - and will be looking for other colors!
Great Sun Shirt
I purchased this so I'd have something to protect me from the sun on warm days while hiking and at the beach. This hoody is VERY lightweight and breathable. I've been wearing it around the house without a shirt underneath and it's super comfy. I haven't taken it out to put it to the test yet, but it seems like it'll do great. Pros: Very lightweight. The stitching lays flat so there are no uncomfortable seams. The sleeves are long enough to get my thumbs through without having to stretch out the fabric and provides adequate sun protection on the backs of your hands. The hood is IMO the perfect size. It's not tight like a standard scuba hood, but not so loose that wind blows into it. UPF 50+ Cons: Although it's nice that it has a pocket, the location makes absolutely no sense. It's very difficult to reach. Because of the pockets location, it takes both hand to zip and you have to awkwardly twist your body to access it, or do it blindly behind your back. I cannot see myself ever using this pocket due to how awkward it is to get anything in or out of. I also imagine it would be impossible to use with a backpack on. A pocket would have worked so much better anywhere else. Chest pocket, front pocket, hip pocket between the 2 seams, sleeve pocket, front kangaroo pocket, stretchy back pocket like you'd see on cycling shirts... Literally any other pocket would have made more practical and functional sense than the existing location. Summary: Overall this shirt is an amazing sun hoody that is incredibly comfortable and lightweight. I can easily see this being used for running, hiking, cycling, climbing, at the beach or just as a casual comfy shirt at home or around town. If you don't need a shirt with a usable pocket, I'd highly recommend this one. However, if you want something with a functional pocket, I'd look elsewhere. For me, the pocket was more of just a nice to have addition, but I was disappointed when I discovered it lacked usability, but all in all I absolutely LOVE everything else about this shirt.
Worked great biking across America
I wore this hoodie every day for 50 days straight while biking across America and it worked great! Didn't smell too bad. The fabric felt good on skin. It didn't fall apart after multiple washes. Under the hoodie, I was just as pale as if I had never left home. The only problem was that the bright orange color faded pretty badly and the back pocket is useless.
Sooooo good!
Purchased this right before departing for a resort trip to Mexico, as I’d been stressing about slacking on sunscreen application and the inevitable burn that would result. I had anticipated wearing this between visits to the water, but ended up accompanying kiddos into the pool first thing before applying sunscreen. Spent an entire day in and out of the water and this shirt was awesome. Super light weight, dries quickly, and so comfortable. The pocket feels very functional for any day on or near the water, or other activities. Anticipating putting this to use when kayaking and paddle boarding as well as belaying in CO. Great colors and not only does it feel good to wear it, it feels great knowing it’s good for the planet.
Love this Sun Hoodie!
I love this sun hoodie. I have two of the REI versions and prefer this one for a few reasons: I like the material of this one a little better and I feel like this hoodie breathes better. I often pull the sleeves up a little on the sun hoodies and these stay up nicely and when I want them down, they don't feel stretched. Feel like the run true to size: I typically wear a medium and could not be happier with the fit
Great sun hoodie!
Pick up this sun hoodie to add to my arsenal for a trip to Arizona in the spring. Temps were 50 degrees in the mornings and mid 70s in the afternoons. Wore this hoodie day 1 and then for the next 5 days exclusively. I didn’t want to wear anything else. I stayed cool and comfortable all day. The thing didn’t seemed to stink at all even after some pretty intense hikes. Huge fan and will be getting more.
Lightweight, nice colors, great fit!!
This is one is the greatest discovery from Cotopaxi in my experience. The hoodie is ideas for all types of activities, from the daily activities to hiking, running, biking, or staying at home. The colors are really nice, and the fabric is very special. I want to remark: it is lightweight!!! You’ll forget you are wearing your shirt. But don’t let this confuse you: it keeps me warm enough in windy conditions here in SF, but when sun appears it also protect me from UV while keeps me fresh. The fabric is breathable and protecting at the same time. I receive a lot of compliments about colors and fit. Personally, I like the fit, and size is true, very accurate. I choose the Medium because Small size was too short and tight in the hips for me. But medium is not loose. I definitely recommend the hoodie. I bought one and some months later I took advantage of a promo to get the second one.
Great sun hoodie
Fantastic sun hoodie. I bought this for a summer trip to Arizona and Utah and it worked fantastic for hiking in 90+ degree full sun. Never had to use sunscreen and never got sunburn. The hood is nice to pull up over a baseball cap when I didn't wear a wide brimmed hat. Compared to other sun hoodies I own, this one ran slightly warmer, but was still breathable. The material is very soft and actually this works really well as a casual shirt as well. The sizing is roomy so it's a little looser than I expected but still true to size.
