[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have been looking for the perfect sun hoodie for rock climbing, and high alpine adventures… this shirt has impressed me so far. Have only worn once on a +95degF day climbing, but stayed cool! Love the sleeve length and hand coverage, plus stretchy enough to push sleeves up. Provided excellent sun and mosquito protection! I’m very impressed. Cooling fabric, with a 1/4 zip for ventilation when needed… stretchy hood fits over a helmet — unsure if hood would stay on in high winds, but will find out soon enough!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this shirt recently on a whim because I tend to run hot on the trail and thought it might be worth a try. Last week we took a cross country trip and one of our stops was at the Badlands in SD. I pulled the shirt out and threw it over a Prana Luxara bra top to hike in the 80 plus degree heat as a test…and was amazed. It was cool, light and breathable! Planning to pick up another one.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a great cooling shirt. Best fabric you could wear in the sun.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this because the button up sun shirts have always felt awkward on me. Comfortable enough to wear around the house and takes the chill off for early morning hikes. I don’t find it cooling, but not hot either.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sun shirt is lightweight and comfortable, although I wouldn’t go so far as “cooling”. Tighter in the arms. If you have large arms, size up.
