The Men's Patagonia R UPF Hoodie is a surf top made from light and fast-drying 85% recycled polyester and 15% spandex jersey with four-way stretch and 40+ UPF sun protection. Designed for chafe-free comfort, it features a self-fabric hood and neck, flatlock seams, and seamless underarms for a smooth next-to-skin feel during paddling. The three-panel hood conforms to the head with an adjustable drawcord for a secure fit, and the brim helps shed water while shielding eyes from the sun. Practical details include a boardshorts connector at the center-front hem, thumb loops at the cuffs, a key loop, and a zippered back pocket with a corrosion-proof plastic zipper for secure storage of surf and paddle essentials. The close-to-body fit ensures maximum comfort and reduced drag in the water.
