The Kuhl Airkuhl Hoody combines a lightweight breathable fabric with saddle stitched seams for comfort. The hoody also has thumb loops to keep your hands a bit warmer and a lightweight hood. This layer is a perfect base for Spring and Fall when temperatures are unpredictable and when you are active and may need sweat management.
Full Review
This isn’t so much a fashion hoody as it is a practical baselayer during the Spring and Fall when weather and temperatures are less predictable. This kind of hoody is great to have stored in a small pack just in case and provides sun protection and warmth when its needed.
Fabric
The fabric gives you protection from the sun while still being thin. Its soft fabric helps wick sweat away from your body and the hoody comes in a choice of colors and sizes.
Fit
I found the fit true to size. I tend to like the option to roll up my sleeves sometimes for temperature management so I found the elastic cuffs slightly too tight to do this easily. Hopefully the stretch will ease over time and make this easier.
Features
The thumb loops are a nice touch to help protect most of your hands when its chilly. I also like how well the seams and ‘waffle’ finish on the inside make it so comfy to wear.
Verdict
The Kuhl Airkuhl Hoody combines a lightweight breathable fabric with saddle stitched seams for comfort. The hoody also has thumb loops to keep your hands a bit warmer and a lightweight hood. This layer is a perfect base for Spring and Fall when temperatures are unpredictable and when you are active and may need sweat management.
