Men's slim fit UPF 50+ windbreaker in an 87% nylon, 13% elastane blend with four-way stretch. A slim athletic cut through the chest and sleeve layers clean, with a full-length front zip and chin guard, two external zip pockets and one interior pocket. Explore our full range of UV jackets.
The shell blocks over 98% of UVA and UVB on the skin it covers, and the cover holds after sweat strips your sunscreen. The quick-dry face fabric shrugs off a light shower and does not stick when you heat up, and the stretch moves with a run or a climb. True to size for a trim fit; size up to layer. Machine wash cold, hang or line dry, no softener to protect the stretch. See also our UV clothing.
The jacket you can carry all summer and barely feel: cuts the wind on an exposed ridge without the bulk of a real coat, for cool mornings that turn into hot afternoons. Browse the complete UV Max collection.

WHAT THE SUN IS DOING
The damage does not show up today
UV does not sting the way heat does, so you never feel it working. It stacks up quietly, one afternoon at a time, and turns up on your skin in your forties as spots and rough patches a doctor wants to look at. A cotton tee leaves your forearms and the back of your neck open to every hour of it. This shirt closes that gap.
WHAT THE SUN IS DOING
Wind and sun, one light shell
On an exposed ridge the wind is the thing you feel and the sun is the one you do not. The UPF 50+ shell cuts both, and it does it without the weight or heat of a real coat.
WHAT THE SUN IS DOING
It only protects if you carry it
The point of a packable shell is that it folds down small enough that you actually bring it. Sun on the way out, a shower on the way back, both handled from the side pocket of your pack.
WHAT THE SUN IS DOING
Blocks over 98% of UV, holds in the wash
The rating lives in the fabric, so a summer of trips and washes does not thin it out. Water beads and runs off, and the sun stays off your arms the whole time.
