Underlayment hoodies are my favorite gear. This one did not disappoint. Great for scent and sweat control. Highly recommend .

Light and comfortable

Hoodie fits well and is extremely soft and comfortable to wear. Doesn't sweat me out like a lot of the synthetic fabrics. I got a size XL and it fits perfectly.

Great purchase!

I love the merino 120 hoodie, it’s been perfect for use on its own for summertime temp regulation and doesn’t stink like a typical solar hoodie. I wore it on a 4 day camping/fishing trip and only came off at night. I have another hoodie in 150 weight from a different brand that had been my go to. This one is more functional with the zipper and is slightly more comfortable. I dunked my waders once during the fishing trip and with the exception of the expected wet wool smell the hoodie dried exceptionally quickly. My only gripe is that the mask stretches out pretty quickly in between washes and will not stay in place after the first couple hours of wear. I will likely purchase a second one to keep them both in rotation.

Great piece as stand alone in warmer temperatures and a terrific laying piece to start with on those cool mornings and as the day starts to warm by itself. True to size and very comfortable.

Disappointed

Overall seemed like a nice piece. Big downside was the durability. Wore it once a 3 mile hike and it had a couple holes in it. Love Sitka gear but wouldn’t recommend this piece due to the lack of durability

Only Sitka product I've been disappointed in

Among the dozen or so other hoodie products from Sitka I have in the same exact sizing over almost 10 years, this uniquely has a much wider wrist cuff and smaller neck zip. It is quite literally the only product I've ever been disappointed in. I'll take the Core Merino products over this all day long.

Core Merino 120 Hoodie

Like with most Sitka gear it more than meets my expectations. I wore the 120 for a few hunts as my to skin layer and then switched to my core lightweight for a couple of hunts. Switched back to the 120, liked it much better. I will stay with all of the Merino layers from now on.

Core merino 120 hoodie

I love this shirt as I will call it. It is thin and makes an excellent base layer. There is one annoying part that is kind of awesome at the same time. It is the face covering piece. It gets in the way when not fully worn, but it works well when worn fully deployed to keep your nose and face warm even in cold temps. I would 100% buy this again. Quite possibly will.

Make them longer please

Love how it feels. But one thing I don’t like is that no option for tall. Or just make them 3-5” longer and call it a day with all base layers. I dont know bout yall… but I like my base layers tight. I’m losing weight.. and I am in between xl to L. But I prefer Large so that it’s tight on me. But now this shirt when I use it for sports or other activities my belly button shows. Sitka please make them longer.. love your product that’s all I buy.
