Used To Love This Shirt But It's Changed

I used to love this shirt. Now it's a different material (no longer slick and stretchy) and the XL I ordered is probably more like a Medium, had to return it.

Not Fitting

Fit/size has changed from 2024 and 2025. Had to return the 2026 order. That was a first

Great Long Sleeve

Super comfy shirt, the button snap at the neck is a nice option included as well 10/10 recommend

Excellent Sun Shirt

Great fit and feel with all the features of a great sun hoody.

Inconsistent Sizing

Love the product. This year's medium is 3/4 of a size smaller than last year's. That makes no sense. .

Great Shirts

Always liked the solar flex hoodies and shirts. feels good and fits.

No Matter What The Season This Hoodie Protects Against The Sun's Harmful Rays.

Living in Colorado we always need protection from the sun. This hoodie is lightweight and provides a comfortable layer of sun protection. You can use alone or as a layer to minimize the harmful effects of the sun.

Change The Products

Why did you change the material. It feels different. Doesn’t breathe as well. Go back to how you used toor loose me as a customer.

Bring Back The Old Solarflex Material!

The new fabric material pales in comparison to the old solarflex material. Nowhere near as soft, also the seams are noticeably itchy when wearing the garment. Bring back the old material!!

Solar Flex And Challenger Solar Hoody

5’6 and 140. Small fits true to size. These are good layers; enough stretch to pull arms up or wear over another shirt. Good 3 season shirt. The solar flex has thumb holes and neck snap. I like both and the snap helps on the water. The challenger has a slightly more breathable back panel.

Love It!

Love this hoody! Comfortable against the skin, lightweight, dries quickly and wicks excess moisture. Love the 50 SPF rated protection. Thumb holes to offer protection to the back of your hands if not wearing gloves. Like the snap to keep the hood in place while running from flat to flat. I have a few of these solar flex products and am happy with all of them.

The Best

Fabric, comfort, fit are great and logo understated… for me a perfect outdoor shirt

Works Great

does what it supposed to do, good fit and lightweight.

Great Shirt

Excellent sun protection with that clingy feeling.

Comfortable Sun Protection

I bought this for fly fishing rivers and lakes. Great sun protection and comfortable fabric. A bit snug around throat so doesnt breathe as well on hot days. Ample hood to extend over a cap.
