Long, exposed climbs that require an extreme amount of focus and extraordinary protection from the sun just got a little easier to plan. Named after the first 15.4b free climb, by Outdoor Research's own Beth Rodden, the Optimist Sun Shirts and Hoodie make you feel lighter, drier, and more honed in than ever on your big objective. The Optimist Sun Hoodie is perfect for people who hate applying sunscreen to their ears and neck, as the hoodie fits nicely around your face and under a helmet for no-brainer UPF armor.
