Reviews Summary
Customers say these sunshirts are lightweight, comfortable, and provide excellent coverage for outdoor activities like hiking, kayaking, golfing, and beach days. The fabric is described as soft, quick-drying, and breathable, with many appreciating the hood and thumb holes for added protection. Users find the fit generally true to size, though some prefer sizing up for a looser fit or to wear over swimwear. The shirts work well for water sports and dry quickly when wet. Many customers own multiple colors and have become repeat purchasers. Common feedback mentions the versatility for both athletic activities and casual wear. Some note the high neckline and a few mention color variations from photos.

    Color is very versatile!

    This color goes with almost anything, which makes it an excellent sun hoody/coverup for any outfit! Having more space around the neck area in the hood would be nice, as I find it slightly constricting when I wear my hair in braids down the front. This hoody performs so well for water sports and is incredibly durable when wearing a PFD over it. Please note that I received this product to try as an employee of Carve Designs.

    Love it

    Beautiful color, soft fabric! I love the design, and the coverage of the neck area from the sun.

    Perfect Sunshirt for sun and comfort

    I live in Miami and kayak, SUP, and snorkel often. This shirt is comfortable enough to wear before, during, and after activities. It is light weight and provides full sun/wind protection (love the hood) while paddling, while being not-too-clingy so I can wear with shorts or pants on my way to/from the water. Going to bring it on an upcoming trip to Polynesia as a multi-functional staple. Also love the yellow! It’s very bright without being glaring neon—goes beautifully with blues, greens, and purples.

    Soft and comfy

    Beautiful slightly loose fit which is just when I wanted to go over a tank top or bathing suit. Super soft!

    Color not as pink as pictured

    Fit well, like the material just wish the “pink” was the same color as pictured
