Patagonia Capilene Cool Sun Hoody Top - Green - Grey - S

It is designed to be worn as a base layer or a standalone sun-protective top, but it can be worn over thin synthetic base layers if preferred.

Yes, the sun protection is built into the fiber construction, meaning it does not wash off after repeated laundry cycles.

The garment has a performance fit, meaning it is cut closer to the body to improve moisture-wicking efficiency.

The polyester knit is designed for comfort and is generally non-irritating, even during high-exertion activities.

While the fabric provides 40+ UPF, it is always recommended to apply sunscreen to exposed skin areas like the face and hands.

It is recommended to hang dry to preserve the longevity of the technical fibers and fit.

Ensure the shirt has adequate airflow; the wicking process requires evaporation to be effective.

Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces like Velcro or rough wood, and wash the garment inside a mesh laundry bag.

Wash immediately after use using a sports-specific detergent to clear sweat-clogged fibers.
