Great hoody with minor qualms

3 weeks ago

I’ve put this thing through the wringer. Recently, i I wore this hoody everyday for 15 days, half of which was spent paddling in Quetico Provincial park and the other half hiking in Olympic national park. It performed gallantly in both settings. Ultimately the shirt met its end after being eaten and regurgitated by a deer in the Olympics, bummed I have to shell out for another now. Qualm 1: kind of a spendy shirt (though worth it in my book). OR is often tough to size for me, I went with a medium on this one, which after breaking it in was the right call. Their Mediums tend to be too tight in the shoulders but just right everywhere else for my 6’2” 195 frame. Regardless, the shirt is awesome, breathes well, resists the stink of repetitive daily use, and has a super functional chest pocket and a deep hood. The ability to unzip the 1/4 zip chest is really great too. My only frustration was occasionally the size of the hood. It’s honestly a big enough hood to get around a climbing helmet, I’m sure by design, but that size hood doesn’t like to stay on a normal head or hat in windy conditions. The addition of a minimalistic draw cord to cinch it down a bit would be nice.

I'll start by saying the material of this hoodie is very different than any other sun hoodie on the market. I'd best describe this as a stretchy thin soft shell jacket. It's not nearly as breathable as their echo hoodies but it's still very comfortable. Another thing that I appreciate is that this hoodie is definitely less dorky than most sun hoodies on the market. The hood itself is also shaped perfect for my noggin, Its very adjustable. With that being said, I'm 5'8 185lbs muscular and a size medium was definitely too small, it's tight around my upper body and when I raise my arms the fabric lifts up to my belly button. I'll be returning it, but I'm not too sure if I'll order a replacement.

Great so far

1 year ago

Love this piece so far. I'm 6'4", 250lbs and the XL fits me great. I typically need to order XLT shirts but this is sized well for me. Sleeves are good length but wouldn't have minded another inch. Thumb holes would have been nice. I have to maneuver a little to get it over my chest (46 inch) but it's not a problem, just noticeable. The material has a nice stretch to it. Might have a shirt on underneath or nothing under depending on temperature and wind. Love the hood fit with or without a hat. Zipped up the hood stays on well. Zippers work well. I've washed it several times now and the material and color still look new. Washing on delicate and hang dry. I like it so much I might get another.

Yes , I recommend this product

Awesome ventilated sun hoody

10 months ago

This sun hoody made it an entire thru hike of the JMT and has no signs of wear even after being worn under a backpack the whole trip. There is minor pilling at the cuffs, but nothing to worry about. The ventilated sides are HUGE in letting a breeze through the jacket - a game changer when the sun gets oppressive at high elevation. The half-zip helps as well. Like most jackets made of this fabric, it does get a little smelly after a few days, and that smell tends to cling pretty hard - par for the course in the world of sun hoodies! I find it dries pretty quickly after a creek rinse.

Decent

1 year ago

NO thumb holes!! I missed this in the description for this redesign. Alittle disappointed in that. All around good hoody, but would've been perfect with this little feature added. Fitment is alittle tight across back, so sleeves pull down over time. Thumb holes would've helped with that. Material is stretchy enough to not be uncomfortable, but noticeable. 5'10" 185lb muscular build. I'm normally a medium to large in sizing. I went with large. I'd error on sizing up if you're close.

These things rock for the long ventures outside!!

These sun goodies block the sun extremely well and they are super light and breathable. Barely feels like you are wearing a long sleeve/hoodie. The material is soft on the skin and packs down extremely well. When wearing a rock climbing helmet, the hood easily goes over and fits well over it so that I can protect my head and neck. If you are going to be outdoors for more than 3 hours with high exposure, these getting this sun hoodie is a must.

excellent fit, great in the sun, fabric abrasion

4 months ago

I love using this hoodie - had it on for sailing a lot of last summer. fit and cut are fantastic - as a thin lightweight garment it draped really well for 5'10" 220lbs. I've gotten leaner at 200lbs now and still looks like it fits really well. BEWARE the surface is extremely sensitive to abrasion - does not play well with backpacks. took it for a run today and the velcro on my hat kept clinging to it too.

Worth every penny

9 months ago

Absolutely love this shirt. It’s made of magic. Awesome for summer around water. Dries very quickly. Can wear swimming instead of sunblock. Keeps the sun off you and keeps you cool as it breathes well. Also keeps you warm as the sun goes down. I have a bunch of these. I wear them all the time! Great for most outdoor activities.

Tight across the back and shoulders and quite short on arms.

1 year ago

This did not fit in a medium, yet the OR Alpine Onset Merino 150 Hoody in medium fits perfectly and with room to spare, considering it is a baselayer I would try the next size up in this Astroman but falling right in between sizes M and L on the chart, it probably will be too wide, like another windshirt from OR that I have tried in both M and L (Tantrum 2). I cannot understand why a sun shirt/hoody would fit like a baselayer but there you have it. While the next size up with be ok in the upper torso and arm length, it does not have any elastic or adjustment on the hem so would probably be baggy like a skirt on me. The arms also felt a bit short and had no articulation but I cannot be sure as the overall size is possibly wrong. On me, the waist and hem and neck were all roomy enough but the chest/back was tight and arm length was not long enough or articulated enough for reaching. I am a size M in dead bird, if that helps, but in between with OR, apparently.

Downgraded Astroman Hoodie

10 months ago

I prefer the original astroman sun hoodie design. The material seems less stretchy than the original astroman sun hoodie, also doesn't have the thumb loops. Maybe doesn't dry as fast as the original astroman sun hoodie either. Overall, a downgrade from the previous edition.
