Too sheer for my liking
The Tide Pool color is pretty, but the fabric is much thinner than expected. I felt like I needed to wear another shirt under it for modesty, which defeats the purpose of a lightweight sun shirt. It also wrinkles easily.
Lightweight fabric and UPF 50+ sun protection makes the Sombra Sun Shirt perfect for throwing over a tank top when high noon approaches. Also available as a hoodie and in men’s.

The UPF 50+ protection on this shirt is excellent; I spent all day outside and didn't get any sunburn through the fabric. The recycled polyester blend is soft and wicks moisture well. My only minor complaint is that the fit is a little boxier than I prefer, not as flattering as some other sun shirts I own, even in my usual size Small. It still works great for its intended purpose.
The fabric felt cheap and scratchy compared to other sun shirts.
Got this for my wife in her usual size, but it was tighter than expected in the arms.
This Sombra shirt in Honeydew is exactly what I was looking for. The fabric is incredibly soft and smooth, feeling cool against the skin even in direct sun. It's much lighter than my previous sun shirt, and the moisture-wicking properties are noticeable during active wear. The standard fit in my usual size Small is comfortable without being baggy, making it perfect for paddleboarding or just being outside. I appreciate that it's made from recycled materials too.
