Backcountry Tahoe 2 Sun Hoodie - Men's

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

I love this hoodie for its effectiveness and how light weight it is. Also, good looking to wear. It would be rad if they added a built-in face mask and a arm-sleeve pocket and/or a chest pocket (like their Destination Hoodie) The face mask would of been advantageous when walking through Yosemite when the deer flies were out in mass (and you spend every other step swatting them out of your face) John

Terrible fit and cuffs are annoying

The elastic cuffs on the wrist make it hard and uncomfortable to roll up my sleeves when not in the sun. Additionally, I am 5'9" and 160 lbs and fit a medium shirt in every brand I've ever worn, but the medium size in this sun hoodie is a garbage bag on me. Even a small might've been too big. I cannot recommend

The shirt is light and comfortable for sun. I have used it around campfires and it took a few washes to get the smoke smell out where other gear doesn't. It doesn't seem to hold smell from a normal hike or outing.

Sun hoodie was spot on

I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share

Got your sun hoodie for my husband after he borrowed my son's backcountry one while we were vacationing and he really raved about it. He LOVES having his own now and will be packing it for our beach trip. It fits great and already knows it'll keep the sun off of him. Thanks Backcountry! 😊

Fits well, feels cool, but smells??

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

I have been using it for outdoor training and hiking and it's all good. The only drawback is the smell. I didn't notice any smell when receiving it, but after the first wash (just normal tide detergent and a washing machine), it started having an irritating smell. This smell just persists whether it's used or clean. All my other clothes washed this way are good so I don't think it's a problem of the detergent or the washing machine or the dryer.

Love the look and functionality. Have used it fishing, mountain biking, hiking, and just chilling. Material seems to be holding up well, and the fit is great for me. XL at 6’4” and longer than average arms.

I bought one of these mostly out of curiosity, I'd never tried a sun hoodie before. I took it on a trip to the lake this summer, and I can't praise it enough. It keeps the sun off, and breathes incredibly well. It feels cooler than wearing a tank top, and with the hood and the long sleeves, there's no concern about getting a sun burn. I will be buying more, this is my favorite item in the closet right now.

A hiking must take

Worth it. Comfortable. A little warm. Added protection during the peak hours in a day.
