UPF 50+ means that the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, offering excellent sun protection.

Can I wear this in a chlorinated swimming pool?
Yes, the rash vest is specifically designed to be chlorine and saltwater resistant, making it suitable for swimming pools.
Is this rash vest suitable for sensitive skin?
The UPF 50+ protection helps shield skin from UV damage, which can be beneficial for sensitive skin. However, individual reactions to fabric can vary.
What is the percentage of recycled fabric used?
Please refer to the product's composition label or the product description for the exact percentage of recycled fabric used in this specific item.
How should I wash this rash vest?
It is best to hand wash the rash vest with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and do not tumble dry or iron.
Will this rash vest protect me from jellyfish stings?
This rash vest provides protection against UV rays and minor abrasions, but it is not designed as a barrier against jellyfish stings.
Troubleshooting
Rash vest feels stiff after drying.
Ensure the rash vest is thoroughly rinsed with fresh water after each use to remove salt or chlorine residue. Air dry completely away from direct heat.
Color appears faded.
This can occur with prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store the rash vest in a shaded area when not in use and follow recommended washing procedures.
Fabric has lost some elasticity.
Avoid excessive stretching of the fabric and do not use a tumble dryer or iron, as high heat can degrade elasticity. Proper rinsing and air drying are key.
