Astroman Air Sun Half Zip Hoodie

It is a very lightweight sun hoodie, great for giving sun protection while hiking or biking. It is slightly transparent but expected for the color. The cut is kind of boxy for a women's cut. My measurement for a size Medium: (waist 27 inches, hips 38 inches). It is a tinge tighter around the hips than I would've liked. Unlike other sun hoodies (Mountain Hardwear) which are smooth material, it is a technical type of fabric which I prefer! Would recommend if that's what you are looking for

I love this sun hoodie! I tried a few others, but most of the ones with knit fabric felt sticky and uncomfortable. The Astroman Air is lightweight, moves with me, dries quickly, and doesn't stick when I sweat. I wore it on the Tahoe Rim Trail last summer and it was perfect on exposed, sunny stretches and in windy areas.

I traveled to national parks in Costa Rica in November - hiking in jungles, boat trips, zipling, nightwalk in the cloud forest. The weather was ranging from cool to hot and from wet to dry. The two Astroman Air Sun Hoodies (red and grey) I had with me, were my every day wear over a t-shirt. It has all you need for this type of weather - you don't get sweat if it is hot, I felt protected enough when I was zipling and it can handle even light drizzles. When it rained I used Hellium jacket - also a great piece for its purpose. I am very happy with my purchase.

I wore this sun hoodie for the entire PCT (5 months) and it still has life left in it. Most people had holes in their sun hoodie mid way through the trail and this one only has some light rubbing and discoloration. It dries very quickly and the zipper is great for both cooling off as well as keeping the hood on even in heavy winds. Highly recommend this product and am ready to buy my second one. I am sad to hear the thumb holes are gone. I also wish the womens version had the pocket at the chest like the mens. However, with how lightweight and stretchy the fabric is anyways, i do not tend to use the pocket. Could do without it entirely.
