This is part of our commitment to building gear that lasts through stages, not just moments.
Available for Baby, Toddler, and Youth Chasers.
***After your purchase, we’ll follow up with a size-up benefit when it’s time—so your next Chaser is easier to get when your kid grows.

1. Reduced risk of sunburn.
2. Protection for sensitive skin.
3. Defense against UV radiation, preventing skin damage, premature aging, and skin cancer.
4. Eye protection from the sun.
5. An alternative to sunscreen for those with allergies or forgetful sunscreen users.
6. Continuous sun protection without the need for frequent reapplication.
A UPF 50+ rating signifies the highest level of Ultraviolet Protection Factor for fabrics like swimwear and clothing. It ensures that only 1/50th (approximately 2%) of UV radiation can penetrate the fabric and reach your skin, offering excellent and top-notch sun protection.
UPF and SPF refer to different types of sun protection. SPF (Sun Protection Factor) gauges the effectiveness of sunscreen in blocking UVB rays, responsible for sunburns.
On the other hand, UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) measures how well a fabric blocks UVA and UVB rays. Additionally, UPF considers the fabric's durability over time, making it a more comprehensive rating system.
The distinction lies in the protection they offer: UPF clothing shields against both UVA and UVB rays, whereas SPF only protects against UVB rays.

Love love love. Great quality.
Loveeee
We bought this for my baby to wear to AirVenture where it’s notoriously hot, sunny, and humid! My baby stayed nice and cool and her skin was protected. So glad that I bought 2! These are so soft, stretchy and I wish I had bought these for her older sister and myself!
I’ve been wanting a sun hoodie and this one surpassed my expectations. It’s soft, breathable but keeps me protected from the sun. I’ve taken it hiking, camping & kayaking. Also love the zipper pocket on the side and the thumb holes.
The absolute best sun hoodie for babies! I’m so glad you make these in baby sizes :) it’s our new summer staple for our 10-month-old.
The sun hoodie is light weight, super soft, and great for the Colorado sun. We didn’t notice a big difference between the 3-6 month and 6-9 month so if you’re on the fence between these two sizes, I would recommend just sizing up!
Remember how CFCs tore a hole in the ozone layer, and then we stopped hearing about it? That’s because it shrank and 99% over the ocean and Antartica… and the entire country of Uruguay. I moved to Uruguay to be with my love and my baby’s father and was desperate to find a baby sun hoodie, since I personally rely on a rotation is sun hoodies. You can get burnt here anytime outside even with its cloudy and even when it’s cold.
Anyway, the hoodie is perfect. Soft material, the baby loves the hood, cool enough to wear while it’s hot out, warm enough to keep her comfy in the cool nights, good quality material that can be worn for awhile before it needs to be washed. I was hesitant because $$$, but I am happy with my purchase and will be buying one in every size as she ages.
Idea: have a second hand market on your website. Kids grow quick. Would love one central place to buy the gently used next size up and sell the size the baby grew out of.
Final note: if for some reason you are ever going to shut down, please reach out to me. I need to purchase every single size first.
I had my son wearing the infant version for our 150 mile, 21 day section of the Appalachian Trail. It's perfect for sun, bugs and a warm base layer. I won't bring the little one adventuring without this layer. Just sized up for his one year old summer 500 mile thru hike and kept the infant size for a future younger sibling. Big thanks for the great customer service also when I accidentally ordered the wrong size this time around!
She put it and wore it all day Sunday!!
After my daughter gave me a Chaser Hoodie for my birthday, I liked it so much I bought another. The fit is perfect, it's lightweight and breathable and best of all, it's UPF 50+. It's just awesome. I may even need a third!
Thank you so much for the support Lane. We are stoked you are so happy with it:)
We love it!!! Thank you for making a baby sized hoodie!!
Great sun.hoodie
Purchased one 3-6 month and one 6-12 for our tall 4 month old. Both fit well but I'm sure he wont be in the 3-6 after a month or two. Also purchased one fo me. Mens XL. 4 Stars for fit and feel. I would say mens sizes are over sized slightly. I dig it. Minus 1 start because how easily they stain. 4 month old = spit up. First time wearing and few spit up stains already. Nature of the beast I guess but surprised the shirts don't clean easier. That being said I'll probably purchase a matching one for mumma.
We stumbled across these at a farmers market while traveling from Texas to Colorado and ended up buying one for our 8-month-old, our toddler, and Dad. They were a huge hit with everyone!
They were perfect for hiking—lightweight, incredibly soft, and so comfortable. The hood was especially great for our baby because it helped keep the sun off his head without having to constantly fight him to wear a hat. The fabric kept everyone comfortable, and they've quickly become a favorite for our whole family.
We can't recommend these enough! Will definitely buying more since they wore these everyday for a week!
We LOVE this sun hoodie. Got it at the steamboat springs farmers market and wear it all the time. About to buy a second and third so we dont have to wash it so much— but even still it has held up GREAT to being washed 2-3x a week. Highly recommed!
Soft and comfortable. Perfect for hiking. Feels built to last.
Great product!
Light weight sun protection, love it!
Perfect fit ! Perfect style !
LOVE IT - this is a great shirt wonderful material. Instead of forcing my kids to wear their sunshirts (the gross ones from amazon made of plastic) they WANT to wear these ones. We bought one for my oldest and quickly bought two others for my youngest kiddos. All the colors are beautiful. Also when we had a problem with our order Ryan (owner?) did not stop until he made it right. 10/10 for product and customer serrvice.
We've now puchased our third onesie (3-6M, 6-12M, and now 12-18M). Love how soft it is and the built-in sun protection. Will absolutely get the next size up once our little one needs it (and may finally get something for mom and dad)! Bonus points for supporting a local business.
Absolutely love this hoodie. Our son wore this hoodie almost nonstop on our recent visit to Yosemite. He loved wearing the hood. It worked great to keep the sun off his fair skin and kept him cool. Highly recommend. I am hopeful that there will be larger sizes for kids available in the future? Our son is 5 years old and the size 5 fit him perfectly.
My whole family has two of these each (baby, preschooler, parents). Love the colours and how soft they are, plus they feel very high quality and should last for years. We’re wearing them to hike right now!!
So we got these in two colors along with little sizes for the baby boy (14 months). Usually we kick off our camping traveling season by this coming week (memorial weekend) . Sad to say we won’t be making it out soon due to a surgery. But the product is great, the material is soft and can’t wait to see the moisture wicking properties at work while hiking! Stay tuned for some awesome stuff!
