baleaf Men's Sun Protection Hoodie Shirt UPF 50+ Long Sleeve UV SPF T-Shirts Rash Guard Fishing Swimming Lightweight

I now own five of these in pure white. I do 200+ mile races in heat that sometimes goes over 110F. Any colors will absorb more heat. Any thickness will retain heat. These shirts, in white, reflect the son extremely well, wick sweat away, are stretchy-comfortable. They stain easily. Liquid HE Tide doesn't get the stains out. I found that adding OxiClean will get all or most of the stains out. When I'm in the sun & heat though, I mostly don't care about looks so much as function. After comparing this product to many others, I bought four more. This is my main workout and racing shirt. Addition: All hooded shirts have the same problem where a headwind will blow the hood back, eventually. I bought a big pack of plastic snaps on Amazon and install one snap about 2 inches above the bottom of the hood opening, right under my chin. None of my hoods blow off when that snap is closed.

Great shirt. Great fit. Very comfortable. I have and will continue to buy Baleaf shirts for workouts and everyday wear. Very good value for the money compared to any other brand.

This lightweight hooded UPF shirt is just what I was looking for as I started sailing. The material is thin and breathable, but seems to have held up well in the few months I’ve worn it. It’s certainly comfortable and I like the variety of colors available. It’s definitely at a great price point, too, with no noticeable difference in quality from the one I bought from Columbia.

Good value for the money. Normal fit, not billowy or too big. Nice fabric, a little thicker than similar versions by expensive brands. The hood is great for sun and fits over my hat. I wear mine kayaking, it’s nice to dip the shirt in the water when it’s hot, for some extra evaporative cooling.

Bought 2 of these for my son and I on recent 4-day backpacking trip. Needed something to protect from sun at higher elevations (7500’-9500’) and provide a light layer for sleeping bag at night. Product worked great. No sun burns and not too hot while hiking at moderate effort with temps in 50 to mid 70-degree range. Might be a little hot to wear if temps in upper 70s and exercising hard. We wore this product continuously for several days in rough activities and it worked great. Backpack straps didn’t distort the fabric at all and they didn’t stain from at all from all the dirt/bug spray/sunscreen they were around. There are other lighter weight, more backpacker-tuned products at much higher price points I would love to have, but this was certainly plenty good enough for us less frequent hikers that can’t justify paying for the high-end stuff out there.

In the desert where I live, this is a great shirt that protects from the high UV days. It’s a mid-weight (doesn’t feel thin or cheaply made) and the hood is a nice option to either keep sun off your head or keep wind at bay. It also is a great travel shirt for day trekking and washes easily in a hotel sink and dries quickly.

Great hoodie shirt. XL size fits well (5’8” and 195 lb), and thumb holes help keep sleeve in place. Chest and sleeve length work for me. Hood fits well - haven’t tried it outside yet. Priced competitively against other brands. Will get more in other colors .

I'm 5'10" and currently about 195#. Currently 38 inches by the tape where I put my waistbands, with a bit of a prednisone gut. I bought a large, and it's longer than I like in the torso while being too short in the arms to use the thumbholes. If I was any taller, it would be too short in the arms to even reach my wrists. The width is good over my chest and belly, not tight nor too loose--but compared to another gray sun shirt I bought at the same time in the same size, it's not flattering at all in the gut area. And since it doesn't have a drawstring, the hood isn't useful if there is much wind. The quality of material and stitching is fine, it's effective at sun protection where it covers you, and it wicks moisture well enough, but with four things I don't like about it I had to take two stars off. I'll keep wearing it and won't return it, so I'll let it have three stars, but it'll be the shirt I wear when the others are dirty, and I will not be buying another. Also, the shirt likes to retain body odor, but I think all of the sun shirts do that. Stay clean and use antiperspirant.
