"I enjoy the simms products I have. I wear another brand of sun shirt, but wanted to try these. The material is a bit rough and itchy to sit out in the sun all day."
— Grant (3/5)
"I buy all of my tech hoodies from Simms and medium fits me perfectly. This one was definitely smaller. My wife scored a new hoodie and we’ll see how this large fits when it comes in."
— Robert C. (3/5)
"I have many pieces if Simms clothing in size XL that fit perfectly. This sun shirt fits like a Large. It fits very very small."
— Michael V. (2/5)
"I have been telling EVERYONE that the Simms Solarflex was the absolute BEST sun shirt on the market. The material, the fit, the finger holes. This new version broke it all. If i could return it, I would (bought from my fly shop and wore it out the next day, shout out Feathered Hook). The material is thicker and more rough, the seams are sewn in a different way and rub like the previous version did not. And worst, the FIT is different. It is tighter almost everywhere and shorter in length. I have bought 1 for each season for the last 4 years. Last years the material got a bit thicker but the fit was still great. I hope my others last, this one is going to get buried under the pile. Hopefully they correct it next year."

"My favorite sun hoodie hands down. Im a 32 waist & 160lb and a medium fits perfectly if that helps anyone for sizing!"
— Johnny G. (5/5)
"Great fit and keeps me cool. I like how the hoody keeps the sun off my neck and face."
— Jim S. (5/5)
"They run a lot smaller than the previous year"
— Axl H. (4/5)
"I own this product in size XL. Ordered another, same size, and it is not even in the ballpark. Must be 2x too small. Had to return it. From the consistency of the reviews about sze, seems like this is an issue. Don't expect that for the price of the product."
— ete (1/5)
"I used to love this shirt. Now it's a different material (no longer slick and stretchy) and the XL I ordered is probably more like a Medium, had to return it."
— Matt C. (1/5)
"Super comfy shirt, the button snap at the neck is a nice option included as well 10/10 recommend"
— Zachary M. (5/5)
