AirExchange SolarShield Hoodie keeps you cool and protected during sun-soaked adventures
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’ve taken the AirExchange SolarShield Hoodie on alpine hikes and desert climbs, and it crushes in both environments. It breathes incredibly well, even under a pack, and the UPF 50 coverage is clutch for high-exposure routes. The scuba hood and thumbholes make it my go-to when the sun's relentless but I still need to keep moving."
We’re always chasing light and elevation, which means sun protection and breathability are non-negotiables. The AirExchange SolarShield Hoodie from Marmot has become our go-to layer when long days under blue skies are on the itinerary. Whether we’re racking up pitches on an alpine wall or pushing pace on exposed ridgelines, this hoody keeps us cool, dry, and shielded from harmful rays.
Its ultra-light, recycled mesh fabric wicks moisture fast and dries even faster, while flat-felled seams reduce irritation when we’re under a pack or harness. Thoughtful details like the fitted scuba hood, zippered side pocket, and thumbholes help dial in the coverage and utility. This is the layer we reach for when our route gains vert—and the sun won’t let up.

Almost perfect but tight in the arms
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love almost everything about this sun hoody - the color and material are great. The fit is almost perfect, but the arms are oddly small/tight in the forearm area. I am 5'11 with a thin/athletic build and the forearms are the only spot that feel weird or too small. Not enough to return it over, but the fit is definitely a little off.

Perfect Outfit for Outdoor Adventures
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely love the Women's AirExchange UPF 50 Hoody! It's incredibly lightweight, breathable, and perfect for outdoor activities. The fabric keeps me cool even on hot days, and the UPF 50 protection is a huge bonus. The fit is flattering and comfortable, and the hood provides extra sun coverage without feeling bulky. Highly recommend for hiking, running, or just staying protected in the sun!

sun staple
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Full coverage! Was looking for something with sleeves and thumb holes. Material is light and breathable. I like that there are lighter color options and darker ones. Outside during summer or while hiking I feel protected from the sun!
