Great sun shirt

The added ponytail hole in the hood is excellent and there are two holes on the hand for a thumb and watch! Very light weight, well made, and good for hot days. When used in cold weather, I get too cold because the sweat on the fabric is very cold. I am 5'5'' and athletic build with wide shoulders and wear a small.

Carcinogen and reproductive hazard

It fit great but I never got to wear it. I saw a tag (that I normally would have ripped off and never look at) that warned the shirt can expose you to a carcinogen and reproductive toxicant -- bisphenol a. I wish this warming was also in the "specs" or "features" ... As I never would have purchased this. Imagine sweating and swimming in this all day ? Smh p

Great color and fit!

Looking for a sun hoodie that fits well (not too loose or tight but just right), thin but not too thin, and in a color that isn’t blah or pastel is hard. And I found it! I got the yellow one and it is perfect! Perfect for hikes when it’s warm and I want to cover up. I like the thumb holes and my hands are completely covered. The hood is also big enough to accommodate my hat. (Some sun hoodies have hoods that are too short.) Looking forward to wearing this all summer and when I hike in the Dolomites and Swiss Alps this summer!

Functional and breathable, perfect for hot days

I love this sun shirt a lot! I searched for a sun shirt for playing pickleball outside since I got tired of putting sunscreen on all body. I really like all the features, watch hole, ponytail hole, neck button and thumb hole. I use all of them constantly and I really appreciate them. I have never seen such functional sun shirt ever. It also dry out so quickly. I bought the Desert Sage one and I love that sweat marks do not stand out at all. About the sizing, I am 155cm, 51kg and size S is good. I feel just the hem is a little bit too long for me but that's not big issue and other part fits perfectly. Someone wrote a bad review regarding P65 warning tag, but many stuff has that warning everywhere in California and I don't concern about that tag at all as if I care that, I cannot buy anything here lol I also tried Sahara Hoodie sun shirt by REI but I felt this one is more breathable slightly. I initially buy this for pickleball outside but now I start wearing it daily for errands so that I don't need to care UV on my arms and no need to put sunscreen on and it is just so comfy to wear. I now debating if I should buy another as this product seems discontinued. Just FYI, this is not good for keep you warm, this is perfect if you wanna keep cool under the sun in summer or hot days. As it is really breathable and thin, if you wear this in chill, you'll be cold easily.

Features much appreciated!

The fabric of this shirt has kept the sweat wicked away in the blazing sun in the mountains. Drastic difference in the feel of this fabric as it feels cool in the hot sun. The ponytail and wristwatch holes are much appreciated and well thought out features. If utilizing the ponytail hole, to keep the sun off your forehead, I've noticed you have to wear your ponytail high on your head to allow the hoodie to drape fully over your forehead, otherwise it's pulled down by the ponytail itself once threaded out the hole. Which means the hoodie could stand to be slightly longer allowing fuller coverage of the forehead. They were sold out of medium, as I usually opt to size up with hiking clothing, so it doesn't feel so claustrophobic, but the small fits and performs just fine.
