Customer Reviews Smartwool Active Ultralite Hoodie

I was given the hoodie by a friend and I bought one more to sleep in!

This is a perfect layer for long flights. It is lightweight, provides a bit of warmth but not too much and the hood can be used pulled over the eyes to block out some of the light. Wore this for a 34 hour multi-leg flight from Cape Town to Edmonton. No odor, no itch.

I bought one of these in every colour. I love the fit and feel of them. They are soft and lose fitting, allowing for plenty of movement. I teach in one everyday and they have held up to over a year of multi washes and kid abuse! I could go either way with the small or the medium but I like just a little more space of the medium.

feels so good

Took this with me in case there was an evening chill on my C&O/GAP bike tour (June 2023). Ended up using it a lot more than I thought I would! The mornings started around 55 degrees and I layered this with a "sunshirt" and my cycling jersey and I was very comfortable. It also saved me after I'd ridden 5 hours in the pouring rain and was waiting for my clothes to dry at the laundromat. I think it shrank just the tiniest bit after the first wash (following all laundry guidelines) but it didn't alter the way it fit too bad. I got it wet again and just gave it a little pull at the sleeves and around the shoulders.

Very liteweight hoodie felt like nothing.

Soft and light

I wear this all the time. Love it.

Truly my favorite smartwool piece! It's light and so soft. Perfect for layering, sun protection. Great relaxed fit! A new staple for my active wardrobe!

Love it!

Love this shirt. Love the color, weight and softness. Great.

This is my favorite sun hoody. It's nice and lightweight, thin wool, has a loose fit which is perfect for running, is super comfy and doesn't get stinky since it's wool. It's more affordable than other wool sun hoodies but seems similar quality. This is the third one I've purchased because I love them so much and wear them year round hiking, running and biking. I really like the copper color too!! #sweepstakes

This Hoodie is the perfect weight, length and color (gray). It wears well and the sleeve length is just right for the thumbholes not to 'pull' the sleeves down.

Great alternative to poly sun shirts: cooler in summer because of the breathability. Sleeves are long enough to cover my wrists. I'm 5'8" with long-ish arms and many shirts are too short in the sleeves. Great color additions this season, so now I have four. May not be as high a UPF as some poly sun shirts, but it's waaay more comfortable. It is not scratchy, unlike some heavier merino-blend sweaters I've tried for winter wear (which I've returned because of the scratchiness.)

love them all!

Perfect for travel. Rolls up to fit in a small backpack, and is ready to wear on the trail or on a plane.

Love it! It's a loose fit and perfect for fall hiking! Plus the green color is so great!

Wonderful drape of fabric - and the shade of dark blue/green is simply stunning... just wish they had in other colors (NOT a fan of the other two colors available). If it were longer, would make a fabulous dress!

Wear it around the house. It is very lightweight and comfortable

Perfect hoodie for summerso light! It's perfect to cover my neck and ward off any chill from any breeze or air conditioning.

Great shirt for just about everything! This does run big! I'm typically a M in smartwool 250 baselayers and sweaters, but I got a small in this, and it still fits slightly large, but not uncomfortably so.

This can't be wool! I love this shirt esp with the hood and wear it for active walks. Light, comfortable and roomy. I esp love the hood to keep the sun off my head and neck

I love this light weight hoodie! Perfect for traveling! Compact and warm.

This is where the too thin comes in very handy, its good for layering when the weather is warm or you just want to be able to take a nap in the airplane with a cover on your head. This time I got the darker color since the lighter colors tend to be quite sheer

I live in a warm climate but love hoodies so this is perfect. It's thin enough to wear when warm but the wool would still be fairly warm in cool weather too. Nice material and good color.
