Equinox Guard Hoodie Reviews

Wore my my first trip

Wore my my first trip of the year. Wore it under a heavier hoodie and jacket on mornings that it was near 30 degrees. By 11 am just had this on as at top with temps in the 70s. Worried about wearing in the green briar so tried to stay out of them as much a possible. Got stuck one or two times and no rips.

This is a great early

This is a great early season top. The chest pocket is massive. The facemask makes packing stuff in easier. It is great to not carry a separate mask. So far it seems the insect guard works. It is still early spring here, but mosquitoes are out, and I am fine. For those who want the lightweight of the ESW and the coverage of the light hoody, this is for you. The best part is you have protection from bugs as well as stink. Polygene, and insect guard make this top a must if you are going to be in the woods!!

The Equinox Guard Hoodie was

The Equinox Guard Hoodie was a wonderful addition to my hunting apparel. The built in insect guard is a life saver on those mornings when you run out of thermacell juice or you show up with no insect repellent. The built in face mask is a nice touch too! I usually put a layer underneath it if I think there's a chance I'll sweat, but when it gets wet- it dries out super fast.

The shirt had great breathability

The shirt had great breathability and the built in mask and hoodie is awesome. Upon receiving the shirt there wasn’t any odor like other protectants have, not mention being concerned about any harmful liquids touching your skin. After using the shirt I can confidently say I did not find a single tick on me after many sits beginning from mid April through the end of May.

I was fortunate enough to

I was fortunate enough to hunt in the Equinox shirt this past spring and was super impressed! The stretch and comfort of this piece is out of this world, seriously a game changer! The insect shield work flawlessly with zero chompers chomping. This shirt is honestly one of my favorite offerings from Sitka in a long time!

I used the Guard Hoody

I used the Guard Hoody on every turkey hunt last spring and never pulled a tick off of my skin. It is super lightweight and breathable for late season spring hunts when temps start to climb. And you can easily layer underneath with a core heavyweight or grinder shirt for those chilly mornings. The shirt stretches and moves well. The hood/face mask combo has maximum coverage to minimize the chance of a pesky mosquito finding her way in.

The Equinox Guard Hoody is

The Equinox Guard Hoody is exceptionally lightweight and breathable for those warm spring mornings. Having tick repellant along with the internal liners built into the garments is critical as ticks continue to get worse here in the northeast.
