Astroman Sun Hoodie - Men's

Nice hoodie for sunny/hot conditions

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I like the fabric, keeps me cool and dry in hot summer days. Zipper is great for controlling body heat when active. Overall very glad I bought it. Odor control underperforms compared to some of my other gear.

New fav

New favorite sun hoodie. The material is light, unrestrictive, and durable. I ordered a size up to accommodate my build, which provided a more relaxed, less technical fit for coastal use. The zip neck is a welcome addition, allowing for increased ventilation. Couldn't be more pleased.

My new favorite!

I have been wearing the OR "Echo" sunshine as my primary hiking shirt for the past 5 years. I loved it (still do) but ultimately decided I wanted to try something with better SPF protection. After seeing so many positive reviews for the Astroman I decided to give it a try. My biggest concern was that it wouldn't breathe as well as my Echo and make me hot and clay. But it absolutely doesn't! It has great breathability and the fabric is silky smooth against my skin. Although I haven't had it long enough to determine its long-term durability, it seems like it should be at least as good as my Echo (which lasted my whole PCT thru-hike). Currently planning to but a second Astroman. I've learned the hard way that if I find a product you really love I should buy two!

Size has slightly changed since last model

I bought the exact same hoodie and size in 2022. I snagged another because I love it and wanted two to swap on trips. The r2023 model is slightly smaller. It's not a deal breaker but I liked the 2022 sizing so much as it was just big enough to be loose on me but small enough to look sharp. I'm disappointed but still love the hoodie!

Soft Sunblocker

Love the feel, high UPF, fun color. Banger shirt.

Excellent for hot days

Absolutely love this sun shirt! The deep zipper is great for venting heat and the thumb loops help keep the sleeves extended when wearing under another layer when it gets chilly. Also it packs down into its own chest pocket so it takes up very little space in your pack. Very well designed product!

my favorite sun shirt

love this piece so much. lightweight and durable. I sized up for comfort and draping. I wish these came in even more colors.

Great hoodie for general outdoor use

Awesome lightweight sun hoodie. Just a great product. I use it for hiking, trail running, river running, and backpacking. It works very well in all applications. Great materials and workmanship. Nice styling too.

My favorite Sun Hoodies!

I adore my Astroman sun hoodies- I've taken them up the Grand Teton, Mt Rainier, and all over my favorite hikes. It's very rare I don't step out into the Wasatch mtns or elsewhere without them. Extremely lightweight, wicks sweat well, and rarely gets too hot underneath. They're also nice to wear around town in the summer while out in the sun.

So comfy and lightweight

Perfect for the summer and even for a winter run with a base layer underneath
