The Solstice Graphene is guide grit plus lab smarts.
This is the best baselayer we've ever made. Period. Years of development and iteration led us to a new synthetic fabric that feels like cotton, but wicks like synthetic. It incorporates Graphene nanomaterial for increased heat transfer and odor reduction and comes in at UPF 55+ sun protection to keep you from getting microwaved up high.
Function: The newest, best iteration of Bight Gear's classic baselayer. Graphene fabric takes this piece to new heights with a light-as-air feel, UPF 55+ sun protection, next-gen moisture wicking, and natural antimicrobial properties.
Layering: Good for a range of temps and conditions. Wear alone as a sun hoodie, or as a next-to-skin baselayer under other layers when things get cold.
Fit: Relaxed

Best store for all things mountaineering and outdoor fun. I’ll be attempting a summit of Aconcagua next year and you can bet I’ll be buying gear from Whittaker! My go to for “guide picks” always spot on! Dr. Gene

Perfect as a Base Layer or for Sun Protection
Used this Hoody during a recent trip to Summit Kilimanjaro. Worked great as a base layer during Summit Night, and was also light enough to be used on other days for sun protection. The hood was very handy for keeping the sun off my neck and head.

Love These Hoodies
I bought my first Solstice a few years ago, and despite wearing it probably close to once a week for anything and everything, it still looks brand new today. Well, other than a couple small holes that I accidentally put in it (and those holes haven't grown at all over time). I love the versatility of this shirt, light enough to keep me safe from the sun on hot summer days and also a great layer in the winter months. Finally got a second one, this 2023 version. Still a great fit and feel. Maybe I'm crazy, but my one observation is that to me it feels like the 2023 is maybe a touch warmer in nature than my older one. On those hot summer days I feel ever so slightly toastier. Not aggressively so, but enough that if available I'll grab my older one if I'm heading out for a summer day on trail or an extensive day of yard work.

Good quality at a great price with hood service.
The Bight Sun hoodie is perfect. Ill use it over the summer and as a base layer in cooler weather.
