Women's UPF 50+ 1/4-Zip Sun Shirt

I brought this hiking on a hot afternoon. When we got to the top at sunset and there was a strong breeze, it was the perfect layer to add. Hiking back down with this shirt and a backpack on, it was pretty comfortable overall. It wicks moisture away well. I washed it in cold water, put it in the dryer on low heat for about 10 minutes, then hung up. It dried pretty quickly.The sleeves are long on me, unless I use the thumb holes, but I'm a little short, so that's not unusual. It is lightweight, stretchy and fitted. You may want to go up a size if you don't want your curves on display.The short zipper works well and has a small flap of fabric that prevents the zipper from scratchinq your neck.

I ordered several different UPF shirts to try, and this one was the winner! The collar and long sleeves were important to me to keep me out of the sun on our 2-week Utah trip. We were outside almost constantly for the whole two weeks, hiking, backpacking, and camping. The shirts fit great, and held up to everything I threw at them. I wouldn't have minded if they fabric was just a little more stretchy. The thumb holes were not quite in the right position for my arm length, and putting my thumbs in them caused the shirt to dig into my hand a bit. Using the thumb holes would have helped give more coverage for my hands for sun protection. These shirts don't dry super fast, which turned out to be a bonus on this trip. We were hiking in the full sun on a 90 degree day, along a creek. We stopped multiple times to dip our shirts in the creek to stay cool. My husband's shirt was much thinner and dried much faster - this shirt dried slower and kept me cooler longer. But other than the one really hot day, I was pretty comfortable in these shirts the entire trip - they were light enough to not be hot.But do they protect against sunburn? Yes! I wore nothing but these 3 shirts the entire 2-week trip. I put 50 SPF sunscreen on my face and hands twice a day every day. I now have a rather awkward variation of a farmer's tan... the backs of my hands are tan, while the rest of my arms are not at all tan!

Love the fit and color. It's a basic quarter zip.

great shirt! fits a little snug but will work well to layer. Will order a larger size also for wearing around town

I am 5' 7" and 170 lbs and I got a large in purple. I love the fit and quality of the material. I will be buying more. The length was perfect.
