Great sun coverage for running

I wore this for a sunny trail run and appreciated the hood and UPF coverage without feeling weighed down. The fabric has enough stretch for easy arm movement.

5/5 rating

Cooler than my regular sun shirt

The ActiveIce feel is noticeable once I start sweating, especially on exposed climbs. I like it best for spring and summer training days.

Comfortable warm-weather layer

Light, comfortable, and easy to pack for travel runs. The fit worked well for me, though I sized up for a little extra room.

Versatile and protective

The UPF rating gives me confidence for long days outside, and the heather color looks good off the trail too.
