Another wonderful sun hoodie that comes in awesome colors! So great for hot sunny days. I find the hoodie runs small so size up.

my current favorite sunshirt (and lightweight layer)
Recommended in Pinhoti 100!
Used this during the hottest of hot summer days in the Bay Area and felt great! I'm pretty sun- and heat-sensitive, so really wanted something to keep the rays off and the heat out. Wicks moisture very well and doesn't feel clingy. Excellent product for peace of mind on sunny days.

I love this UVP shirt. It's lightweight, has pony and thumb holes which is very convenient. The trail society version from 2025 is the cutest pattern - light green with dark green flowers
