Astroman Air Sun Half Zip Hoodie

I purchased this Sun Hoodie for my wife, who walks 10-plus miles per day. When it was delivered, my wife tried it on, and liked the fit and the color. But when she unzipped the single pocket and tried to put her hand in it, she looked puzzled. "This pocket is in backwards!", she muttered. After thinking about it, we decided that the pocket is designed to carry a mobile phone to the rear, but this makes it pretty much useless for normal pocket use. On the positive side, this hoodie is of typical OR good quality, and the fabric weight is good for warm weather sun protection. So my wife has tucked the hoodie away with her vacation clothing, rather than using it during her daily walks.

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.
