"Breathable and well fitting. Protection from the sun without feeling too stuffy."
"I live in this thing all summer. On the boat, on the beach, biking the Andes Mountain. I also got it treated for mosquito protection. It's my favourite piece of clothing."
"Absolutely love this shirt. It’s made of magic. Awesome for summer around water. Dries very quickly. Can wear swimming instead of sunblock. Keeps the sun off you and keeps you cool as it breathes well. Also keeps you warm as the sun goes down." -
What we think
The GR20 in Corsica brought intense temperatures, but the Astroman Sun Hoodie was honestly so comfy. The hoody was particularly useful in shading the glare of the sun, which was at its fiercest around 1 pm. Rising before sunrise and enduring the midday heat, I found refuge in the hoodie's high UV protection and cooling sleeves. Even with a dodgy stomach, the hoodie shielded me from the sun's glare, ensuring I stayed cool and burn-free! Quick-drying, snag-resistant, and incredibly comfortable, the Astroman Hoodie proved its worth on the rugged trails.
