Reviews

Good quality

"So I ordered Medium size and it was too large and replaced it with Small without any issue. But even Small is a bit loose. Also the fabric is a bit stretchy which is good but it may make it more loose. In terms of quality it is good, no issue at all. the holes for your thumb though is a bit tight and after sometimes you feel it's pushing against the bottom of the thumb and it's not pleasant. Overall it's a good quality hoodie"

— Mohammad N. (5/5)

Essential daily sun protection made easy

"As a dermatologist, I'm always looking for sun protection that people will actually wear every day. This hooded zip top makes staying protected effortless. The certified UPF 50+ fabric provides consistent physical coverage against UVA and UVB rays without the need to constantly reapply sunscreen. The clothing of the hood adds great extra coverage for the neck and ears, and the material feels lightweight, breathable, and comfortable even in warmer weather. Highly recommend it for daily wear or outdoor activities. The quality of this zip top exceeded my expectations. The fabric is super soft, lightweight, and breathable without feeling thin or cheap. The zipper is sturdy, and the fit is modern and flattering. It’s perfect for layering on walks, travel, or everyday errands when you want dependable UPF 50+ protection without overheating."

— Teekz Y. (5/5)

Excellent Lightweight Hoodie

"This hoodie has a wonderful cotton-y feel to it and is t-shirt weight. It does a fantastic job of blocking the sun and keeping you cool in sunny conditions. This is the 4th hoodie I've bought from Solbari, and they all have held up well with regular wear and washing - only to be replaced several years after purchasing them."

— Morgann H. (5/5)

add more colours pls !!

"I love Solbari & have lots of your stuff, but PLS can you make the "mens" Summer Hoodie in some actual summer-y colours !! (OR make the women's version in some bigger, less tight-fitting sizes, and with larger more functional pockets. ) I've now bought the men's version in both types of grey (light & dark) but would love other options, eg : Butter / Lemon, Sage, SkyBlue, Latte / Caramel, Terracotta, Berry, Grape, Eucalyptus, etc - literally anything in addition to what you already offer (also noting that even the black & navy seem to have been "sold out" for at least the past 18 mths)."

— Pip (4/5)

Excellent hoodie and perfect for

"Excellent hoodie and perfect for sunny hikes and walks. Fabric is thin, but that’s a benefit, although I wish it was slightly less wrinkly material"

— Chris H. (5/5)

"Stylish and comfortable."

— Stewart W. (5/5)

Fits like a glove. Protects

"Fits like a glove. Protects my skin and looks fashionable. What's not to like?"

— Timothy W. (5/5)

Where is the black colour?

"The Black colour is the best"

— The M. (5/5)

Soft material and very comfortable

"Soft material and very comfortable to wear. Sizing is a bit on smaller than my usual, especially arm length."

— Jian L. (5/5)

Perfect summer cover up!

"Bought this for my husband, he says he really likes it. It’s very thin but somehow the fabric is still quite plush too. He hasn’t got tanned or burned whilst wearing it so it definitely works."

— Jordan G. (5/5)
