Customer Reviews Outdoor Research Echo Hoodie

I love all of the Echo products, and this is a fantastic option for sun protection. Great coverage but extremely lightweight, packs so small there's no reason not to take it along.

Such a great purchase. I use this on most hikes and colder runs. Keeps me warm without overheating and acts as a good sun barrier on the occasional sunnier northwest days!

This shirt is prefect for the days, it's hot and sunny and you want to keep the sun off of you but also keeps you cool. The first day trip I used this, I was in love! My favorite part is the hood has a spot for your ponytail. The echo collection fits true to size.

I purchased this hoodie for covering up in hot weather while at camp, or hiking. I like to have a very light, silky article of clothing on hand at all times in case I need to shield lightly burned skin or have a block from insects. This top is lightweight and doesn't irritate the skin. the neckline is high and the hood close-fitting. It's great for all-over protection without being too hot. I'm 5'4, 130lbs and it fits comfortably. I wish it were available in more classy/neutral colors, beyond black and gray.

Perfect fit. Perfect weight. Love it!

This is my 2nd Echo Hoodie. Love them both. They have remodeled the design but love them equally. Would buy again and again. OR just needs to work on more color choices.

I wear this top to run and mountain bike. Great breathable material and the best sun protection. The ponytail hole in the hood is a cute idea although I don't use it. I do like the fact that you can pull the "mitts" over your hands. I bought this top solely for sun protection and will probably wear it while climbing too. I wish it came in some other light colors.

Loved the first one so much, I bought another! Gotten a lot of use on hiking and mountaineering trips. Please make more colors!

Great shirt. Lightweight, comfy, durable. Perfect for warm weather hikes at high elevation.

I LOVE this top. It's my go-to for spring, summer, and fall recreation. It's super lightweight, soft, flattering, and fits well (not too loose, not too tight). So far it's performed excellently hiking, trail running, xc skiing, gardening, and biking. The hood fits nicely over a trucker hat and I love the ponytail slit in the back. I've found that I can easily wear this top over sundresses and tanks. I'm usually a size medium and the medium fits perfectly. The arms are long enough for lankier folks too! The only negatives about this product are that it snags easily on velcro and does not have thumb holes. I wish it came in even more colors!

I love everything in the echo line. It's the best lightweight material for all things outdoors.

I loved this shirt so much that I bought two more! It's ultra lightweight so I can wear it mountain biking, even in warmer weather. I have had melanoma, so I'm hyper-sensitive to sunlight and love the hood for when I'm just hanging around outside. And, as nerdy as I look I can even bike with the hood up under my helmet.

A great addition to my Colorado adventure wardrobe. So far I've used it on a 5 day float and it was perfect for sun protection, a little bit of wind protection and overall style. I might have to get another color too!

This is my go-to hoodie for all outdoor adventures, warm or cold. I run in it, go climbing, skiing, yard work, work out at the gym, go paddleboarding, and just wear it around town. The fabric is ultra light weight, though tends to snag so be careful! I have 4 of these, and I love them all!

Oh my goodness. This is my new favorite shirt. I bought it with the thought that it would be great for hiking in Torres del Paine, but the plague has delayed that hike for later. This shirt did absolutely prove its worth on Easter Island in November, though! It's such a light, breathable shirt that provides just that little bit of coverage desired when the temp drops a little. It's a comfortable fit - not too tight or loose. The hand mitts built into the cuff are a little odd and a little useful at the same time.

Function: This top has served me well in any venture that I've put it through thus far. I've worn the top climbing, both indoors and outdoors, running, hiking, and as everyday wear to a brewery :) I love how slim the fit is without being skin tight, so in theory I could wear a shirt underneath, but usually choose not to since I get warm very easily. I've been impressed with the odor control; if there is any odor, it is very minimal so I don't ever feel self conscious when wearing it. The material is super lightweight, but keeps your body's temperature under control quite nicely. I wouldn't wear this top alone on a chilly windy day hike, but if I were running a trail in those conditions, I would probably wear it alone. Sizing: I am 5'10", 160 lbs, 37" chest, 29" waist at the navel, and 39" hips. I bought a Large and it fits me perfectly! I have long arms, broad shoulders, and a long torso, so I typically size up with a Large. Sometimes larges just get wider instead of longer, but I did not have that problem with this top at all! It's exactly how I would want it to fit :)

Great light fabric, fit and color. I haven't used it outside yet, but can't wait to do so!

This has become one of my favorite products EVER! I wear it as a base layer for high output winter and summer adventures alike. It breathes like a dream and feels great against the skin. 10/10!

Best woman's sun hoody on the market . Fit is great. The stowaway mitts are nice for cooler days.

These shirts are a godsend for long days out in the high heat of the summer. Perfect sun protection, not too hot in the blazing sun, especially when you're traveling over snow. I also appreciate having a long sleeve on when the wind picks up and your sweat starts to cool you. I'm normally between a S and M (5'9, 140lbs, large chest) and I went with the medium - perfect fit. Not tight, but not too loose. These are the perfect layer for adventures in the Cascades during the alpine climbing season.

I recommend this product to anyone! I primarily use this for hiking. Not only does this keep you cool during the heat, but also keeps you warm when you need it to. It is extremely light weight, breathable, and fits nicely (not too big or small). I envisioned something like this in my head, and never thought I would find it. Unfortunately I put a small hole in it, grabbing my pot off the stove- so be mindful, it is sensitive to heat. But, responds very well to gear tape. I will be ordering several more- once they get back in stock. Amazing product.

I hardly ever order women's clothing because it never fits right. This time I did because of the pony tail hole (I think it's so funny!!) and the fit is great. It doesn't cling and I feel comfortable wearing it. It also weighs nothing and half the time it's like I'm not even wearing a top. I might have to get one in every color.

My wife loves the Echo Hoody! I bought her two. They are great for sunny days in the mountains. She works on bumble bees so she wanted a dull color because the bright colors attracted the bees to her, which interfered with her research. So if you work on bees....

Great color, great fit. Love the hood. 5-8, avg / athletic build.

Very breathable but also great to wear on cool nights
