I've really enjoyed this shirt. It fits great and doesn't get stuffy like some of my other sun shirts can on hot days.

Overall a keeper. Fabric is awesome soft stretchy and cool. Only downside is forearms are tight, not slightly loose like the rest of the fit. Overall good.

I'm enjoying the Bamboo Shade Hoodie quite a bit The threads feel very nice. We'll see how they hold up to the trails. I particularly like the arm cuffs. If I pull up my sleeves they stay up. With other brands and manufacturers the cuff falls down after you pull them up. Overall a contender for best Shade Hoodie I have.

First free fly purchase and after using on a recent beach trip I am really impressed. Super soft and stretchy, drys quickly, and keeps u cool even in 90 degree temps. 6'1 170 usually wear a med but purchased one in med and one in large and i prefer the large over the med. Would definitely purchase again.

I have quite-a-few "performance shirts", made of various man-made materials, that evidently offer a good UPF rating, but I find them to be hot, and to be honest, just don't look very good on my oversized belly. What I especially like about the Bamboo Shade Hoodie (besides the high UPF rating) is that these shirts feel more like soft cotton. I now own four of them and use them while out fishing, walking, sailing or other outdoor events where you are constantly exposed to the sun. I really like the Bahama Blue color. Note: I also have the Heather Red Clay color and the Heather Adobe Red. These two colors are very close to each other. I highly recommend these shirt.

I love wearing these when I’m down at the beach and also fishing. They are lightweight. They are comfortable and they keep me from getting burnt cause I am a redhead. I also have four different colors and I wear them all the time.

Hoody is lightweight and comfortable. Seems softer than other hoodies from Free Fly. Like them all and would recommend.

Nice breathable hoodie. Very comfortable and stylish.With skin cancer, being a problem, these hoodies really help me protect myself from the damaging sun. I will buy more. I highly recommend these hoodies.

Worth the price if you’re actually using it. Hours a day on the water or in the sun, not a Saturday or 2 a month. it keeps you cooler than polyester and feels way softer with good stretch. The shirts don’t hold odor either which is a huge plus compared to poly. The shirts fit kinda slim in the torso and a pretty slim in the sleeves if your body type is any larger than a twig lol. I see the benefit tho for fishing and sailing you don’t want extra slack in your sleeves. They stain easy so be mindful of blood guts oil coffee etc. I like the hood as well it fits well over a hat. I can’t speak to the material pilling because I haven’t had it long enough. 5’10” 180
