Description
The Bamboo Shade Long Sleeve II is the second generation of this women’s style, now with an updated and super dialed fit. Same indulgently soft and stretchy fabric, same impressive UPF 50+ rating.
Naturally odor-resistant and temperature-regulating, it suits travel and an active life equally well — holding a just-right temp when the forecast, or the airplane air conditioning, throws you for a loop. The fabric weight gives it a really nice drape.
