Ideal sun protection
I was given a Sunshield Hoody and thought it was so great that I sent one to my brother. I live in Hawai'i where it is sunny and humid, and everything about this hoody is perfect. It's lightweight and breathable, as you'd expect, but the unexpected delight is the feel and function of the fabric. It stands away from the body just a bit, and feels almost soft. So much more comfortable than other sun-protective wear that feels like you're being suffocated in plastic wrap! I can wear it all day and feel good. It's become one of my favorite pieces of clothing.
