"What is better for a global adventure than a canyon shirt? Yea, I'd always like to approach from the jungle to some crazy 7000M face in the Himalaya and go all out. But wearing the same shirt broken down in Baja chasing down car parts next to the beach? Why Not? Get one and live in it."
– Ben Clark, Alpinist
This fabric provides high protection against UVA and UVB radiation.
The UPF value of a fabric may be influenced by many factors, including:
Tightness of the weave or knit, Size of the yarns used, Fibre content or opacity of the yarns, Optical brighteners used in dyeing; and
Color of the fabric (light color tend to have a lower UPF rating than dark colors)
"We adjust all of these factors to develop performance garments that excel at their intended sport while providing optimal sun protection. Mountain Hardwear does NOT use any UV-absorbing fabric finishes. These wear off over time, and we don't like the idea of adding anything to your clothing that doesn't need to be there. Smart Designs. Smart Technology."
Our Verdict
Clothing is one of the areas where we think Montain Hardwear excels, the Canyon Shirt is a traditional looking shirt but with the attention to detail required to elevate it to a modern, technical piece of gear.
