Highly recommended

I was skeptical at first but after a trip into the Rio Grande in Northern New Mexico I will never choose another Sun hoodie for the trip. Temperatures got up to the upper 90's and after a strenuous hike out of the Canyon in the afternoon heat I was highly impressed with the protection and breathability. And dried faster after than any option I have tried that are on the market. Ordering a second in summer sky immediately! Thanks for a fantastic summer hoodie.

Fantastic, it's been around the world with me!

The sunseeker has become my default hiking shirt! I recently took my 2 sunseeker hoodies with me on a trip to AZ and they kept me cool and sun burn free while being comfortable and sweat wicking. I've ordered more as Christmas gifts, I cannot recommend these shirts enough!

Best sun hoodie I have ever seen

Cannot say enough great things about this hoodie. Quality, comfort, breathable, fast drying, awesome colors (got banana peel). Normally like firm fitting clothing. I’m 6’3” 200 lbs athletic build and an XLT fit me perfectly.

I plan to own one of everything from Burgeon, LOVE the store. Shop Local.

Perfect long day hoodie

This has been great for all the above treeline efforts either running or hiking ! Its great design solidly breathable and looks killer!! Love the local roots of this company and cant wait to get more gear for those white mountain adventures! It was great on the summits definitely lets in wind and keeps you protected from the all day sun. Dried decently fast as well after i dipped in greely pond ha

New essential!

I had never considered wearing a long sleeve hoodie in the summer. I read the reviews and took the advice of my hiking bud Eric (yeah, that Eric...😄) and bought one. Wow, who knew! This is now my "go to" layer once I get up above tree line where the temps are cooler and the breeze is blowing. Really comfortable and breathable. I definitely recommend adding this to your gear. 👍💯

Keeping me cool

I’ve had many Sun Hoodies and this is my favorite by far. I’ve been hiking out in the Arizona sun for the last week and I’ve been cool and comfortable. Also it doesn’t soak up my sweat like the other ones I’ve had. 10/10 recommend.

Perfect for the pale amongst us

So far, this has been amazing. I love the color and the feel; and of course the sun protection is amazing. As others have said, thumb holes would be nice. I also have a very old patagonia sun hoody that has a small zippered key pocket - that would be a nice touch here too.

solid, unique

Good sunscreen shirt. Also as a baselayer for slightly cool temps. Unique sorta waffle-ish pattern to wick away sweat bombs. Looks good chicks dig it.

Excellent Performance

Incredibly lightweight, great thermal management, a bit longer drying time than expected, but great overall value. Hood is a bit oversized. Stitching is flawless. I have this in my travel kit. Great company that does a lot for its workforce and the environment.

Great Hoodie

I've been looking to try a sun hoodie for a while and didn't know which one to get. I got an ad for this and saw positive reviews and it was on sale so figured I'd go with it. It is genuinely so amazing - it's very hot and humid where I live and I swear it's cooler wearing this hoodie than it is a t shirt. Absolutely love it, and plan to buy more for myself and my wife.

good hoodie

After two summer seasons, I can say, it's a good hoodie. Is it better than others in the market? Probably not. By now they are all pretty good. The fabric feels heavy. It does definitely not float above your skin. Does it "amplify my body's natural cooling process" - that seems marketing hyperbole. Drying time (on the clothesline or when worn) seems a bit longer than my other sun hoodie. Smell-resistance is good, less than wool in my opinion, but my wife didn't complain when she picked me up after a four day summer hike. The fabric is sturdy (one rip in two seasons) and the hoodie still looks good after quite some use. The stitching holds up well. The hood is oversized. I can use it to wipe my sweaty face on the uphills (a definite bonus). It works well with a baseball cap underneath, but without it it is really floppy and too big. Thumb holes would be nice.
In summary, I would buy it again, especially since it's made locally right here in New Hampshire.

Perfect for summer outdoor activities

Wow these are great shirts. I've worn them hiking, to the beach, to a ropes course, and just around. They're fantastic! Somehow the fabric cools you down with the slightest breeze. They feel great, and the hood is really nice for keeping the sun off your neck and head. The material feels unlike anything else I've owned, and I really like it!

Protection without the Weight

I bought this for sun protection when in the water. I was surprised by how light it was when wet and how quickly it dried. I now have used it a few times and it hasn't disappointed.

My husband loves it

Bought this for my husband for father's day and he basically hasn't taken it off. He wears it hiking, biking, around the house, to the beach, at work. It's a great lightweight layer!

Great lightweight hoodie

I got this for a week hiking trip in Colorado. It was great both on the warmer days and the cold snowy days. Very happy! I plan on buying another one or two in different colors before my next trip.

Great base layer

Bought this recently - great for the outside when the temps are in the 50s and you're moving about. I lift with it and it's a great work out hoodie (not sure they intended that use case!) I'll definitely buy more
