Mens solar flex hoodie
"This new one isn’t my favorite, the fit has been changed and it’s weird to me . I like the prior version with the thinner stretchy material fits me better. The taper on the sleeves is kinda tight on my forearm."

"This new one isn’t my favorite, the fit has been changed and it’s weird to me . I like the prior version with the thinner stretchy material fits me better. The taper on the sleeves is kinda tight on my forearm."
— Dorian G. (2/5)
"This solar hoody is the best design Simms has ever put out. The slots in the sleeves for coverage of your hands is the highlight of the design. The only complaint I have is the sizing on this hoody is small. You need to order a large if you’re a medium, etc…If you are in need of a hoody that is great looking and functional, this is the bomb!"
— Tom L. (5/5)
"I love this shirt for summer fishing - the design, construction, fabric, comfort and the way it looks. Best hoody that I own. I'm 6' and 173 lbs. and I wear a medium."
— Peter K. (5/5)
"Attractive prints, I always like when the new line comes out. They are my work shirt LITERALLY every day. Sent these back immediately because I could not even fit them on my body. Hands would not fit through tiny sleeves and my shoulders would not fit in the shirt. I thought I ordered the wrong size, but I did not. I sent them back and went back to wearing last year's colors"

"Received more compliments of the color and style of my new solar flex hoody. Very comfortable on hot days! I’m a medium but had to go up to a large. Seamless exchange. Great service!"
— Todd L. (5/5)
"Nice, light, comfortable material, good for summer. The hood is well designed, does not blow off in the wind. Size medium is about right for me (6’, 173 lbs) but the fit is a bit too snug. I’m a thin guy so this is a bit surprising."
— Peter K. (4/5)
"This Men’s Solarflex hoodie fits smaller than my other recently purchased Solarflex hoodie?"
— Mitch L. (4/5)
"The Solarflex Hoody is the perfect all-day option for both on and off of the water. Lightweight, fast drying, and extremely sunproof makes it a great fit year-round whether it is the primary or secondary layer."
— Dan D. (5/5)
"Wow. Size runs a bit small, the fabric is really hot compared to all the other simms hoodies I’ve purchased. Love the new shorts. Disappointed in the hoodie."
— Scott H. (2/5)
"These are very comfortable, provide great protection, are cut well for movement and last me a long time. (I give them a quick hand wash and then hang them dry) I don't know what some are referring to when they say they are a little abrasive. Maybe it depends on the color or pattern? I wear several of the solid colors and find them to be extremely comfortable against my skin."
