Alpenglow Hooded Long-Sleeve Shirt brings cool-to-the-touch UPF 50+ sun coverage all day

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"I wear the Alpenglow for big approach days and sunny belays because it actually feels cooler when the sun hits it. The mineral-based BD.cool fabric dumps heat, the hood fits cleanly under a helmet, and the Polygiene treatment keeps funk down on multi-day trips. It stretches, breathes, and dries fast—exactly what I want in a true sun hoodie."


From exposed ridgelines to all-day cragging, the Black Diamond Alpenglow Hooded Long-Sleeve Shirt keeps us protected without overheating. The mineral-based BD.cool knit reflects heat to help regulate temps, while UPF 50+ coverage and an under-the-helmet hood guard our neck and face when the glare is relentless.


Light, airy fabric wicks and dries in a flash, and Polygiene odor control keeps things fresh when we string together miles or pitches. A low-profile hip pocket stashes a card or key, and the easy stretch delivers unrestricted movement for high steps and reaches. It’s the sun hoodie we grab when the plan is “out early, back late.”

Customer Images

Here's what customers have to say

The product is widely praised for its lightweight, breathable, and durable fabric that provides excellent sun protection. Customers highlight the comfortable fit, flattering design, and useful features like the hood, pockets, and thumb holes. The hoody is noted as versatile for various outdoor activities. However, some experienced quality issues like snags, pilling, and loose stitching. A few wished for a wider range of color options and disliked the placement and bulkiness of the side pockets on the women's version.

It has a POCKET!

Since my husband love's the men's version I decided to start getting the women's. It's virtually the same, just cut for a woman and has a pocket-total score! These wear/wash/pack well and last long as well.

Pectoral fin pockets are a nope

What the He** pockets? After spraying on about how much I love my alpenglow hoodies to my wife, I bought two of these for my her for an upcoming adventure where all day sun pro will be paramount. Well, she hates them simply for the bulky pockets that protrude off the side like some sort of pectoral fin. I said "what pockets" only to find the women's has the aforementioned pectoral pockets for some unknown reason. Now we are scrambling for an alternative. Do women need pockets? Why mess with perfect?

Perfect hiking sun hoody. I

Perfect hiking sun hoody. I am tall, 5'10", and this hoody is long enough to cover my entire torso and down to my wrists.

Lightweight and Comfortable

This hoody is perfect for active days outside. It’s lightweight yet provides great sun protection, breathable enough for warm weather, and layers easily when it cools down. The fit is flattering and comfortable, and the fabric feels high quality. Definitely a new favorite for hiking and everyday wear!

Love at first wear

I just wore this hoodie for 4 days straight on a backpacking trip. Breathable, effective, wicking and dries quickly, and I love the cheery coral color. I'm officially obsessed.

Great sun shirt, but…

As far as sun shirts go (and I’ve been shopping extensively for them), these may be the best. The material has a honeycomb-like weave that makes it more durable than the typical sun shirt. I ordered a few for my husband. The only reason I’m docking a star is that the color Baja sunrise looked more red-orange on the website; in person it’s totally prison issue orange. And I don’t like the other colors in women’s, so I end up with no alpenglow shirts even though they’re the best. BD needs to expand the color range for the alpenglow!

Awesome Summer Hoodie!

This hoodie works great during the summer for hikes, light runs, or spending all day at the kid's track meet. It fits true to size.

Different material to pro version, but still a great hoody

I purchased this since I absolutely love the version with a 1/4 zip -- I didn't realize this was a different material to that version. Still really like it, so no major concerns!

Perfect sun hoody!

I own it in multiple colors and the fit is perfect! I ran an Ultra in Moab this past March and it kept me cool/dry and warm/comfortable when needed. I love the longer length, lightweight breathable fabric, elastic around the hood to keep it from blowing off your head. Excellent quality!! I can’t wait to add more colors to my collection.
