Alta Elite Trail Hood ROARK Men's Hoodies

Sun protection that runs with you

This is the piece you want when the sun's relentless and you're not planning on slowing down. The Alta Elite Trail Hood from Roark packs UPF 50+ protection into a hooded long-sleeve top that's so light and breathable you'll barely notice you're wearing it. Made from GRS-certified recycled polyester, it dries incredibly fast and moves with you through every stride. It's a favourite of Roark's own trail ambassadors — the kind of piece they reach for on hundred-milers and long days in exposed terrain. Just as valuable for a summer hike on the South Downs as it is for a desert ultra. If you run or hike in the sun, this is a no-brainer.

Some brands make clothes. Roark makes excuses to leave. Founded in 2010 by Ryan Hitzel — a restless artist, former Volcom creative and the kind of bloke who'd rather be digging through a back-alley market in Oaxaca than sitting behind a desk — Roark was born out of a road trip from San Francisco to the Mexican border and a deep frustration with an outdoor industry that had lost its sense of story. Ryan wanted something that wasn't just a surf brand, or a skate brand, or an outdoor brand — he wanted a brand built around the lifestyle of adventurism itself. The kind that sees every trip as a chance to discover something worth telling people about.

Each season, Roark's crew picks a destination somewhere on the map and heads out to test their gear across surfing, climbing, skating, running and whatever else the road throws at them. That real-world thrashing is what shapes the collection — purpose-built pieces that work just as well on a Himalayan motorcycle expedition as they do in a pub in the Lakes. It's gear designed for people who never quite know where they'll end up, and wouldn't have it any other way.
