Stay protected from sun and wind in the Alpenglow Pro Hooded Top
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"This is my go-to for high-alpine approaches and sunny ridge scrambles. The fabric feels cool even under a pack, and the hood stays put in the wind. I especially love the high collar and built-in thumbholes—they keep me covered without feeling bulky."
We chase long objectives under big skies, and the Black Diamond Alpenglow Pro Hooded Top is made for exactly that. Built with BD.cool mineral-based tech, this sun hoody reflects heat and keeps us cool when we’re moving under intense solar exposure. The UPF 50+ protection gives us full-coverage confidence for full days outside.
The quarter-zip design lets us vent on the climb, and the stretch-woven panels add mobility where we need it most. The fitted hood layers comfortably under a helmet, while thumbholes and a drop-tail hem keep everything in place when we’re on the move. For alpine starts, mid-day scrambles, or desert climbs, the Alpenglow Pro is always in our pack.

Great purchase
Hoody feels very comfortable and does not restrict movement. When active breathability is excellent.

Nice technical shirt
I didn’t end up keeping this because it was too large and the orange was a little too hazard cone looking. But I liked the feel of the fabric even better than my regular Alpenglow hoody.

Great light weight layer
I’m very much enjoying this Alpenglow Pro Hoody. This fit is what I expected. A bit looser since it’s the regular fit rather than their more slim fitting pieces. The octane color is fantastic. Very vivid. The material is soft and stretchy. Breathable and adds a nice moisture wicking function when I’m in the middle of an activity. Would definitely buy again.

Stands out from Competitors
Absolutely love the Alpenglow hoody and very excited to try out this Pro version. Few sun hoodies come with a zipper to regulate body temperature while still maximizing the sun protection of having the hood up. Only potential concern is snagging the material while hiking. Great fit and super comfortable. Couldn’t pass up the clearance price for a past season color.
