Tops: I wear my Simms Hybrid jacket daily. I love the weight, reduced bulk, and the double breast pockets on fishing trips.The Patagonia Fitz Roy Nano puff hoody definitely wins in the 'cool factor' category in the Carhartt-esque colorway. 

Skwala has launched two merino hoodies that are absolutely badass, the lightweight 150 would work as a sun hoody or a base layer while the heavy duty 350 is the wool hoody I've always wanted on steelhead trips. Don't sleep on Skwala's Sol Tactical Hoody that solves the common issue of not having any pockets in a sun shirt. 

If you are looking for a cooler factor, peep the Howler Brother lineup. Other notable items that receive much love and attention in the shop are the Patagonia Insulated Fjord Jacket and their teddy bear-like Retro X jacket.
