The Basin Sun Hoodie is for those looking for feather-light sun protection. We love this fabric for its weight, next-to-skin feel, and amazing colors. Though quite delicate due to its ultralight properties, this hoodie can last a full thru-hike and more, as demonstrated in the prototyping stage last year!
Use case and fit: These hoodies are ideal for keeping the sun off in the heat of the summer when you’d like to feel like you’re wearing nothing at all! They feature a deep hood, casual fit, and four distinct colorways.
Fabric tech: The Basin Sun Hoodie is made from an ultralight version of Polartec© Delta™ fabric, which provides UPF 15 sun protection (blocking 93% of UV rays) and is designed to keep you cool by dispersing moisture away from the skin, improving breathability and minimizing cling from sweat. It is essentially a fine mesh, allowing for air to pass through easily. Of course this also means it’s a bit less protective than the Coastal and Alpine Sun Hoodies, as they use heavier, more robust fabrics.
Hoodie care: Wash cold and hang dry.
Fabric content: 52% polyester, 44% lyocell, 4% spandex
Fabric weight: 3.4 oz/yd² (Wide Large is 6oz)
Returns: Returns will not be accepted for reasons regarding the inherent lightness of this fabric, instances like snags or tears that are cause by the customer. Refunds will not be issued if products that are retuned have snags or tears.
