Best Sun Shirt Yet!
I bought this shirt for my recent 4 day backpacking trip to Havasupai and it never smelled! I’ve previously owned Tyr and Mountain Hardware (Crater Hoodie) shirts and while I love the fit and hip pocket of the later, both would reek of BO one hour into a hike. This Free Fly shirt never smelled! It also didn’t pill around my pack hip straps, etc. It is very light weight and great at moisture wicking. A word of caution about that on multi-day backpacking trips: if it rains and your pants get wet, the shirt will absorb all the water off of your pants and be soaked. But if you are going somewhere hot and dry, definitely take this shirt!
Love it!
This is my new favorite. Love the feel, color and fit! I think I need one in every color!
Holes In Less Than An Hour
I REALLY wanted to like this sun hoodie. I love that the selection of colors they have here and it is pretty lightweight. However, I wore this outside and after less than an hour I looked down and saw several holes. I don't even know how they haven't but it is obviously not very durable. I have another sun hoodie that I have used for a year of hiking and climbing and still looks brand new.
Nice weight for running, hood could be bigger
I got this as a replacement for my Athleta sun hoodie, which finally shredded after a decade of regular wear while running. I wanted another lightweight white hoodie with hand coverage. I wore it today for the first time, and it's LOVELY. Nice, silky-soft material that's lightweight and breathable. It's nice not to have a zipper and zipped pockets as in my former running hoodie, though I would like a larger hood that provides a little more face coverage. I'm hopeful it will last as long as my former running hoodie. I will also wear this for fly-fishing and other outdoor activities.
Not what I imagined
I really wanted to love this sun hoodie. I bought it for my 6 month trip to Africa. The fit is flattering, the fabric is soft, and I like the thumb holes. The hoodie didn’t feel too tight either. However, the fabric did not hold up. I did not get the piling other users have mentioned, but after wearing this shirt while hiking Mt.Kilimanjaro with a pack the sweat stains never came off. Disappointing. I even brought it back to the states and tried soaking it in Oxi. Not a good look at all. Would not purchase any other tops from this company despite loving their bottoms.
Nice product but small details are missing
This is a nice product and very soft, but there was a small hole in the shoulder and a loose seam.
My sweat stained it
I loved the color and texture of this sun hoody but it weirdly stained in the arm pits and lower back after my first hike in it. I’ve never had that happen to any of my clothing before. I don’t know if it reacts to certain deodorants or sweat but it shouldn’t do that
AMAZING!!!!
Went to REI and compared the Free Fly sun hoodie with the REI, Columbia and Janji brand and by far Free Fly was my favorite!! I purchased 2 of them. They are so soft and the material feels like it will be so much.cooler. I live in Texas and the sun is blazing. I need protection but I want a breathable material and this brand was the perfect choice for me.
My Favorite Sun Hoodie
This is hands down my favorite sun hoodie. I now own 3 indifferent colors. I love this new lavender shade! This hoodie is comfortable, breathable, durable, and odor resistant! I tested my first one hiking almost 900 miles of the Continental Divide Trail. It performed flawlessly! The hood provided awesome sun protection in the desert - I was able to pull it up over my cap. It kept the back of my neck and sides of my face from getting burned. I love how quickly it dries, too. I literally wore this every day on trail - it didn’t get any tears or rips even though I had to bushwhack on multiple occasions. It kept me cool in the desert and warm in the mountains.
Still Got a Sunburn
I still got sunburned through this hoodie after two hours in the midmorning sun. Really disappointed in the SPF. It super soft and breathable though.
