When the sun's blazing and you've got trails to conquer, the Smartwool Merino Sun Hoodie delivers the perfect blend of natural comfort and serious protection. This lightweight merino wool sun hoodie keeps 100% soft merino against your skin for natural odor resistance and moisture-wicking comfort, while a recycled nylon core adds durability that won't quit on your adventures. With UPF 40+ protection shielding you from harmful rays and a generous hood designed with a clever ponytail exit, you can focus on the view ahead instead of worrying about sunburn. The thumbhole cuffs extend coverage to your hands while keeping sleeves perfectly positioned, and offset seams prevent chafing during those long days exploring the backcountry. Whether you're hiking ridge lines or paddling sun-drenched lakes, this women's outdoor hoodie proves that sun protection doesn't have to mean sacrificing comfort or style.
