Alpenglow Hooded Shirt

Shield yourself from the sun with the Black Diamond Men's Alpenglow Hooded Shirt during long days on belay under the searing desert sun. Its lightweight fabric protects your skin from harsh UV rays without making you overheat, and it wicks sweat to help you stay dry and cool. Mobility-enhancing underarm gussets and an under-the-helmet hood allow you to wear it while climbing without feeling like you're in a straight jacket. Black Diamond also added a polygiene anti-odor treatment to keep the car from smelling foul on the long car ride back from the desert.

Perfect Fit

The fit and feel of this shirt is incredible. I love it for all seasons. It really helps regulate your temperature. And it doesn't hurt that it looks super sleek too.

Comfy and cool

As a ginger, I basically live in hooded sun shirts. This one will likely be my new staple. It's extremely comfortable with great movement and feels durable. Also looks great and doesn't ride up and choke you at all like I find some sun shirts do.

Soft

Perfect so n protection and light wind and cold protection. Used it when the nights got cold but a jacket was too heavy. Soft durable material. Packable and easy to put on.

Great sub hopdy

I bought this before a trip where I was going to be on a lake for a week kayaking and playing around water. I was suprised how well it worked. I never felt hot in 85 degree temps or like I was getting sunburned. It kept me cool and dried which anytime it would get wet from the lake water. I am a very critical of how my gear performes and this performs great! I Wouod totally recommend this sun hoody!

Fits great be sure to check the size chart before ordering.

I love the way this hoody fits. But be sure to check the BD size chart. I am normally an XL, but the size chart said I was a Large. The Large fits me so well I ordered two more!

Great pick.

Thru hiked the AZT in one of these. It is quite odor resistant. Was flawless. The only thing that I would change about it is to add a thumb hole to each sleeve.

Durable, comfortable

I use the alpenglow when guiding, it's the best tool when looking for durable sun pro.

Meh, it's hot.

Familiarity:
I've used it several times
Size Bought:
Large

Have climbed in this guy couple times. I should've bought a Medium (6', 190#). Don't care for the cut. It's got nothing on my Capilene sun hoody. I usually love Black Diamond gear (when I can afford it) but compared to Capilene this fabric falls short. On a warm, windless day this thing is noticeably hot. It is soft and super stretchy but doesn't feel as good without a shirt underneath as the Capilene does, which is cheaper.
