After too many scorching days on the trail I have been searching for the best sun hoodie for me. I am a woman and have been testing XL in men's sizes. (I prefer a baggier fit and have a tall frame.) I got the Winter Sky color which is a bright light baby blue. This SPF hoodie has very long sleeves which put it above Outdoor Research's hoodies for me - those barely came to my wrists. It is also long overall (covers my butt, comes to the hips in front too) which I think makes it less flattering on me. I enjoy the weaved texture of the fabric and it feels good against my skin. As long as there's a breeze, it helps ventilate and keep you cool. Unfortunately, doing some bushwhacking, the bottom seam got easily torn up. It also has some stains from sweat and dirt and holds some stink though I do sweat a lot... Overall it's functional but I'm going to keep looking. If it comes back in stock in Smoke Gray I might consider getting a second one.

Really not a fan of / can never remember to put on sunscreen so for long days outside, whether it be a hike, walking 9 holes of golf, or spring skiing, this thing is great!

Colors are nice. Material is warmer than other sun shirts. Most of all, the sleeves are WAY too long and baggy. Returned.

I have bought this hoodie for a few family members and they all LOVE it! It is a great lightweight layer that can be used for many activities.

I'm not sure what the reviewers who rated these great lightweight logo hoodies poorly are thinking. They look great, fit as expected, are made with sustainability in mind and hold up well on the trail and against my new puppy claws at home. Despite being long sleeved the lightweight fabric and UPF 50+ makes these suitable even in warmer weather. Thumb holes are durable and properly positioned and the drop length is perfect so the shirt doesn't rise above your belt when you reach over your head. I love the high Spandex content which gives the shirt a great feel and just the right amount of stretch. They aren't inexpensive TBS, but there's a lot of technology built into these durable, Bluesign, fashionable hoodies. Couldn't be more pleased!

Wore this hoody for my CDT thru-hike. Backcountry nailed it: The fit is nice and loose for mobility. The hood is generously cut and works great with a ballcap helping to keep it in place. Thumb loops: thank you BC. It worked across the desert and sun-exposed terrain, blocking the sun without making you feel confined. While it won't be enough on its own, the hood was super-helpful in keeping the mosquitos at bay. Will be buying these again.

Too loose in the arms and through the body. Arms not long enough. Had high hopes for this, but think I will return.

For me this sun hoodie is ideal. Being a larger individual with a negative ape index I perhaps benefit from the shirt running slightly large and the sleeve length. Was pleased with being able to keep cool in warmer conditions and to use it as an overlayer in cooler, sunny conditions. Loving this shirt so far.

I was really hyped for this sun hoodie when I first got it. They have such beautiful colours! Unfortunately, it fell short of expectations and in performance. I started with the evening sand, hoping to purchase many other colours. When I received it, I thought it looked good out of the packaging. However, when I put it on, I immediately noticed that it felt warmer than my other sun hoodies. This didn't deter me, though, because it was a very light colour, so I expected it to perform better in the sun than my other sun hoodies that were darker. I was, unfortunately, disappointed again. It remained warmer in comparison, and I sweated like crazy in the California sun while hiking and climbing at the crag. It's not all bad, though. It does protect you from the sun's rays. The fit is very loose and boxy, so it will cover you well. It just doesn't look great on the frame. I'm uncertain whether sizing down would fix it; it's just an odd design that makes it look like I'm a kid wearing his dad's clothes. If you like the loose fit, then you'll enjoy this! Odour resistance is on point, too! Even with my profuse sweating, it still smells neutral. Great job here, Backcountry! Overall, this is a middle-of-the-road sun hoodie for me, and I mainly keep it in my car to cover me when the sun's shining in while I'm driving. It's not my first choice for hiking and climbing. If they made it a more athletic fit, then I'd return for the other colours!
