Great Hoodie

I am a recent convert to hiking in a hoodie and after trying some less expensive versions I pulled the trigger on this one. The fabric wicks and dries very well and the fit is just loose enough the shirt doesn't feel like it clings. A pricey shirt but I have found that their products have great durability.

Excellent

Brilliant. Lovely material, blocks the sun well and keeps the back of your neck cooler in the sun. I'm 5'10 and 38" chest, I got the medium but I think a large would have been better. Feels like quite a slim fit when on, particularly in the arms.

Great For Us Forest Service Crew Shirts

I am a supervisor for the US forest service and I had two of the Abisko sun hoodies embroidered with our fire crew logo. The shirt has held up for over 2 months even being worn during trail maintenance and project work. I wore the shirt without beig washed for a week and a half and it held up terrifically in the Arizona heat. The only complaint I do have is if the logo was a sticker laminated or in embroidered in a different location it would be more capable of being customized for companies and agencies to design. Wildland Firefighter approved!

Best Lightweight Sun Hoodie

One of my favourites, looks good, feels good and works great

Not Rated For Sun Protection

This shirt does not have a UPF (SPF-equivalent) rating. Given this, calling it a "Sun Hoodie" is quite misleading.

Awesome Quality

I loved my first one so much I bought a second one. Very comfortable. Solid build. Not too warm for summer, but great as a base layer on colder days too.

Great Moisture Management Layer Just A Bit Pricey

6'2" & ~165-170 lbs. w/ long arms & torso & it fits like it was made to my exact specifications in a large. I've had mine for a few years & I don't think I've ever used it in temps above ~70F so not sure how it does in the warm, but I love it as a layer (usually over a base & under insulation in winter & over a T-shirt w/ a shell of some manner over top when needed in spring/fall). It seems to help w/ moisture management & temp regulation & acts as a minor but noticeable wind baffle/diffuser. Only major complaint I've got w/ it is the price, but I'll likely wind up grabbing a couple more at some point.

Bad Smelling Fabric

I really like the fit and material, but there's something off about the polyester used. After wearing the hoodie for a short amount of time, it gives off a foul smell (chemical/ammonia like smell). Non of my other athletic apparel does this and makes me suspect there's something about the recycling process in the polyester.

My Go To!

Huge fan of this! It's a go to for slightly warmer to hotter temperatures. It's comfortable and feels far more breathable and quality than alternative sun hoodies on the market (REI Sahara sun hoody) Also, the protection I get with it from the sun is amazing. The hood is more oversized so it's easy to wear over a helmet or to sorta pull to the side to provide extra protection from the sun -- even when you're just driving and there's bright sun coming from the side window. I own two and am dreaming of a third!

Good, But Odours Build Up Quickly

I bought a few months ago and I am generally happy with the top however, the odours build up very quickly, after a single day use, compared to other base layer tops I have which is a challenge on multi day hikes. Perhaps this can be addressed in future models.

Nice Shirt But No Uv Protection

I bought this a few months ago and the quality is what I would expect from Fjallraven, but it has failed to protect me from the sun if I am outside all day in the sun. I am quite pale which is why I purchased this and if you're going to wear a sun hoodie, you'd expect some protection from UV rays at least. I like the shirt & I'll continue to wear it on days where I need minor sun protection, but I'll use a different product on when I will 100% need UV protection.

The Best

The best workout/active long sleeve hoodie. Perfect roomie fit.

Love It!

lite and fast drying, good protection under sun from head to wrist, i wear it everytime i go hiking or camping, just picked up second one today.. wish there was more choice for colour

Comfortable, Medium Weight Hoodie

Excellent quality, XL fits me perfectly, I am 6'0" 190 lbs. Super comfortable and perfect when a heavier weight hoodie might get too warm. Breathes well, I wear this trail hiking in cooler mornings in Arizona. I really like the hood, I pull it up over my cap to protect my neck from the sun, and unlike other, fruit flavored hoodies I have, it is roomie enough not to be constricting, and the geometry is perfect to stay up without blowing down. I wish it was available in black and some lighter colors.

Solid Sun Hoodie

Used a few times this spring with no complaints. Fits true to size, does a decent job keeping you warm as well. Overall would buy again. Fjallraven quality.
