Free shipping on all orders.

Sun shell, hood, four pockets
- UPF 50+ nylon: a densely woven 100% nylon face the supplier rates at UPF 50+, blocking over 90% of UV.
- Full-length zip: one centre zip runs from hem to chin, finished with a hook-shaped pull.
- Four pockets: two zipped at the chest, two with a flap and a press stud at the hip.
- Drawcord hood and hem: two cords at the hood, two cord locks at the hem.
- Elasticated cuffs and a vented back yoke that lets heat out across the shoulders.
The cut is relaxed. Size S measures 112 cm around the chest with a dropped raglan shoulder, so it layers over a tee without pulling. The shell is unlined and weighs about 500 g, light enough to roll into a daypack. The supplier states no care instructions.

Frequently asked questions
Is it waterproof? No. The surface is treated so light rain beads and rolls off, but this is a sun shell, not a rain jacket.
How does it fit? Relaxed. Size S measures 112 cm around the chest, so take your usual size for a loose, layerable fit.
What does UPF 50+ mean? It is the supplier’s rating for how much ultraviolet light the fabric stops: more than 90 per cent.
