"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I pulled the hood up on an exposed ridge hike with zero tree cover and it made a real difference on the back of my neck. The thumbholes kept the sleeves in place while I scrambled over loose rock.""Some trails offer no shade for miles, and that's exactly where the Sol Shade Hoodie earns its keep. Whether you're grinding out a sun-baked ridgeline or paddling across open water, pulling the two panel hood up gives you an extra layer of coverage without breaking stride. Moisture-wicking recycled polyester keeps things dry through steady exertion, and thumbholes hold the sleeves in place under a pack strap or paddle grip. A herringbone neck tape binding reinforces the high wear areas around the collar, keeping the hoodie in rotation trip after trip."
