Why We Like The Crater Lake Hoodie

The high temperatures have never stopped us from getting out there, so why would the threat of UV rays? In the Crater Lake Hoodie, we have full protection from the sun so we can hike, climb, and explore without the worry of sunburn at the end of the day. The three-piece hood covers both the front and back of our neck, and thumbhole cuffs keep our sleeves securely in place so the lightweight, moisture-wicking fabric can repel solar rays while we play in the heat of summer.

My favorite sun shirt

Familiarity:
I've used it several times
Size Bought:
XL

I went on a tear and bought a bunch of different long sleeve sun shirts and the Crater Lake is my favorite so far. I bought a few Freefly shirts, OR ActiveIce and OR Echo shirts. The Echo is the lightest but the sun protection is low so I only wear it if it's overcast. The ActiveIce is heavier and less breathable but still nice, the Freefly shirts are very breathable and comfortable but they also don't offer the same sun protection.

Husband loves it

Familiarity:
I've used it several times
Size Bought:
XL

My husband is 6’3” 250 lbs and the XL fits him well. He recently wore it on a 3-day backpacking trip and barely took it off. It kept him comfortable in a variety of temps and protected him from the sun.

Great odor control, superlight, breathable

Been using this for my trip to Hawaii. Superlight, breathable, stretchy, and doesn't reek even after hours of sweaty hiking! I've been really impressed.

I love these shirts!!!

I have 4 of these. Two with hoods and two without. I also have 2 of the short sleeve. I use them for backpacking, work, and hanging around the house. They are a super light material and don’t have that plastic feel of some synthetic shirts. They breathe well, dry quickly and provide excellent UV protection. I am 5’10” 175lbs. I wear the large size and they are slightly baggy on me which is the fit I prefer.

Great Sun Protection

Great sun protection, I like these more then other rash guards, they still dry quick not as quick as other sunshades but I appreciate the material it is very soft stretchy and durable. Beats other rash guards if you’re not getting absolutely soaked and drying super fast is the highest necessity.
