Equinox Guard Hoodie Reviews

Meah

It’s a microfiber hoodie. It’s nice, but not $150 nice.

Great gear

Awesome

CMF

Best sun shirts I have found!!

Great Piece of Clothing

I have numerous Equinox hoodies and love them all. They are great for layering or just wearing as an outer piece depending on the weather.

Useful

The guard hoodie works. The mosquitos and flies have been brutal this year so far. I used a different product for one trip and I am still scratching the bites on my neck and shoulders. With the equinox I haven’t experienced the bite through as before. The hood is deep enough to catch the brim of my hat, staying in place. The face mask rocks to cover my face and helps some with sun protection. I’m running three hoodies so far scouting.

Love the shirt

Shirt is both lightweight and breathable. It’s an awesome teal season piece but I don’t think the insect repellant part of the shirt to be all that great. Still had plenty mosquitos biting me through the shirt but then again I’m always the one fighting mosquito's.

I haven't been able to

I haven't been able to test this system against bugs yet. The shirt runs big. I had to exchange the hoodie for a smaller size. I'm 5'08, 185 athletic. I was swimming in the Large shirt. Medium fits much better.

Awesome product

Light weight and works great against the mosquitos. Hood and face net are nice as well.

Works great. Very thin material.

Hoodie

Love it

Seems to work as described.

Seems to work as described. Spent 4 hours in the woods with zero ticks and 2 mosquito bites. In July in Arkansas.

Material has not held up

Material has not held up like I would have expected. Took on week long 50 mile hiking trip, and shirt is already showing signs of wearing out

Best early season shirt

I like this shirt so much I now have it in sub alpine and elevate. I wish they made it without the hood in multiple solid colors so I would wear one everyday. It’s the best early season shirt I have ever had for Oklahoma. I normally wear an Xl shirt and in this shirt I wear a Lg.

I am a believer!

Recently hiked the Wind River Range of Wyoming where the mosquitos are currently off the charts. So glad I bought and packed my Sitka Equinox Guard hoodie. Ended up a lifesaver, at first for hanging around camp, then for sleeping in it and for the last day for actually hiking in. I had been going without because of the heat but the last day I wanted that extra bug protection, and I was pleasantly surprised that the hoodie was cool and comfortable despite 90ish heat.

Extremely light!

This hoodie was a fantastic addition to my lineup. It is lighter than even the core lightweight! Fantastic piece. Definitely note that the tail is longer than the core lightweight, but that helps it stay tucked in!

At 5'4 150lbs athletic, perfect

At 5'4 150lbs athletic, perfect fit. Only giving it 4 stars because it doesn't have much resistance in the way of thorns. I've only used it once and already had a few threads ripped out. Probably one of those things where I'd just replace it after a couple seasons. I really like the built in facemask into the hood, one less thing to have to carry/manage. The weave and permethrin treatment seemed to block mosquitos from biting through the fabric. Great hoodie, just recommend being mindful around thorns.

Have not hunted it yet,

Have not hunted it yet, but very impressed with the lightness and functionality. I like the features of the thumb loop and the ability to wear head or face covering that is built in. The insect repellency is yet to be tested though. But I fully expect it to help in that regard.

Excellent insect protection. Mosquitoes buzzed

Excellent insect protection. Mosquitoes buzzed my head the whole time but not one bite. No ticks either! It does run pretty big, especially in length. I got a M and its bigger than the L lightweight hoodie.

Equinox hoodie

Extremely light weight and comfortable.

Equinox Guard Hoodie

I'm looking forward to going out this season in this hoodie. It's light and breathable. I'm sure I'll be comfortable in the saddle after my walk in the woods.

Great Piece

Fits great, feels great, going to be using for early deer season and Turkey season

Equinox Guard Hoodie

Nice and light and does a great job keeping the mosquito’s away. Looking forward to trying it out Next spring and see if it also keeps wood ticks away.

Equinox guard hoodie

Repelled Alaska’s state bird, the mosquito.

Equinox Guard Hoody (large)

I love this hoody, it is super lightweight and comfortable in addition to its insect shield and polygiene capabilities. I bought this piece for turkey hunting but it has become my favorite fishing top as well.

It actually works like advertised

Lightweight and comfortable

Perfect early season/turkey gear!

Love this top. Very lightweight, fits perfect, and will be ideal for early season whitetail as well as turkey season.

Equinox Guard Hoodie

This is my go-to summer shirt. I keeps the sun and the bugs off. This is my third one in various colors. I use a large for early season bow hunts. It fits but the XL fits just a little looser and is more comfortable for everyday wear.

Best ever

Not one mosquito bite while warring and they were buzzing around all day. Will be buying another one

Great fit I almost forget

First Time Buyer

As someone who is just getting into hunting, I found the Equinox Guard Hoodie to be a perfect base layer but also something that works great as the main layer during those hotter months.

Love all my Sitka gear
