Description
The Equinox Guard Hoodie cuts down on contact with biting insects in hot, humid environments. Full-coverage design limits skin exposure, and the high-gauge fabric blocks bites while promoting airflow and wicking sweat. A scent-free Insect Shield® treatment actively repels mosquitoes, ticks, and other disease-spreading insects. It’s rounded out with a mesh facemask and a long tail that tucks into your pants for extra insect defense.

This is the first Sitka
Review by Jill L. on 30 May 2026 review stating This is the first Sitka
This is the first Sitka item I’ve bought and I am loving it!
A week prior I had a walk in the woods and came back with 5 ticks I hadn’t found. Subsequently I had to medicate and it thrust me to the decision to purchase insect resistant clothing.
A second walk in the same woods with the Sitka shirt -
I found no ticks.
I am anxious to purchase the equinox pants next! Seeking more ultralight clothing options for lengthy hiking not just a day ir two. Thanks Sitka!

Works as advertised!
Review by Kevin P. on 27 May 2026 review stating Works as advertised!
During turkey season in Arkansas where I get to hunt, ticks are abundant, “skeeters” are non existent! As the ticks are as stated abundant, any knowledgeable person will also spray with a tick deterrent such as permethrin or deet. Normally with other clothing, one is still gonna have a tick slip through and latch on. That did not happen while using my Sitka Equinox “GUARD”. Very pleased with my hoody!
