Description

Don't be caught outside without sun protection! Coyote Organics has designed these unisex jackets specifically for sun protection and breathability for hot weather, also for comfort and versatility. With this jacket, you may never have to use lotions or creams to be fully protected. If sun is not your concern, these jackets can also be used for travel, leisure, and on a cool summer night. The many pockets allow you to go out virtually wallet- and purse- free.

 

“When you factor in wind, sun, harsh foliage and rapid temperature changes, the desert becomes the ultimate obstacle course for sun protective clothes,” said Shahar Tsadeek, founder and lead designer of Coyote Organics. “While virtually everything else on the market falls short against one or more of those conditions, Coyote Organics desert apparel is designed to thrive in all of them.”

A New Mexico-based clothing designer for more than 20 years, Tsadeek began by sewing his own clothes for a bicycle trip across Europe and into the deserts of the Middle East. His design philosophy is based on experience, personal testing, and a modest aesthetic that allows his clothing to blend in to daily life at work, at home, and on the trail.

Coyote Organics utilizes premium organic cotton and hemp fabrics that comfort the skin, generous sleeve and body cuts that enhance free movement, and an innovative flow-through ventilation system that allows air to move intelligently through the garments.

The Coyote Organics apparel line was designed with an acute awareness of the need for skin protection in the company’s Santa Fe home (elevation: 6,000 feet).

“Skin protection is not a luxury in the Southwest, it’s essential. For a piece of clothing to be truly effective against the desert sun, it must be wearable, convenient and practical enough to be worn all day, year round. Something that sits in your closet isn’t going to help, said Tsadeek.

Tsadeek has been living in and exploring deserts throughout his life. The products and design philosophy at Coyote Organics reflect his love for that climate and the knowledge that the right clothes can make it accessible to anyone.
