Vertx Launches New Full Sun Hoody, Supports Skin Cancer Foundation

Vertx, a leading manufacturer of cutting edge outdoor performance and tactical gear has released its new Vertx Full Sun Hoody. Engineered for maximum comfort, protection, and durability, the Full Sun Hoody is built for those who demand more from their gear—whether in-the-field, on the trail, or under the sun.

Vertx is partnering with the Skin Cancer Foundation during May’s Skin Cancer Awareness Month. It will donate a portion of proceeds from every Full Sun Hoody sold during the month to support the foundation’s mission to reduce the incidence of skin cancer through education, prevention, and early detection.

“The Sun Hoody was created for long-lasting, do-it-all performance,” said Aaron Silvestain, Director of Marketing and Ecommerce at Vertx. “It’s a product designed to protect our customers and allow them to perform. Our partnership with the Skin Cancer Foundation allows us to extend that mission by enlisting our customers in the fight against skin cancer, which is the most common form of cancer in the United States.”

Available in men’s and women’s styles, the new Full Sun Hoody brings versatile, technical performance to every adventure. The women’s version is an extension of Vertx’s collaboration with world-champion shooter and tactical athlete Lena Miculek – The Lena Collection. It continues the brand’s commitment to designing purpose-built gear tailored for women.

“From its UPF 40+ protection to its abrasion resistance and thoughtful design, the Sun Hoody is built to go the distance,” said Anne Thurman, VP of Product Development at Vertx. “What really sets this product apart though is the integration of the innovative 37.5 Technology. This fabric technology helps regulate core temperature and boosts comfort and energy efficiency. This makes it the ultimate choice for staying protected and performing at your best under the sun.”
