120 g/m² hooded layer for long exposed days. No sun-protection value is printed on it.
three places, three grades
a grade with no reason is not a grade
- hikingsuitable
- Hood and long sleeves give continuous fabric coverage on an exposed section without adding a layer to carry.
- cyclingusable
- The hood does not sit under anything and will lift and flap at speed. Fine at commuting pace, not on a fast descent.
- commutingusable
- Hood bunches under a jacket collar; the fabric is light enough to keep on indoors.
Cycling grades account for back hem length, sleeve length with your arms forward on the bars, and whether there is a rear pocket you can reach. Rear pocket on this piece: no.

the piece
A light hooded top at 120 g/m² that keeps fabric between you and a long open ridge. We have not had it tested to EN 13758-1, so there is no UPF number on the garment or on this page — coverage is the honest description, a rating is not.

- sun protection (EN 13758-1)

Measured stuffed into its own pocket and compressed by hand — not a machine-compressed figure.
No water-repellent finish. This fabric soaks through in rain and is meant to be worn under a shell.
Not measured. This garment is water-repellent only, so no hydrostatic figure is published for it.
Not yet measured. No breathability figure is published and no breathability claim is made until it is measured to this standard.
Not measured. No UPF value is printed on the garment or shown on this page.
- No UPF value is published: without a test to EN 13758-1 a number would be invented
- Hood cut to sit over a cap brim, single rear adjuster
- Thumb loops on the cuff to keep the back of the hand covered
- Packs into its own hood, 0.4 L

Garment measurements in centimetres, taken flat. Tolerance ±1 cm — a run of fabric is never exact, and we would rather print the tolerance than pretend it away.
