The Billabong Re Issue 50+ UPF Long Sleeve Rash Vest is an essential piece of technical surf apparel designed for surfers and water sports enthusiasts who require reliable sun protection during extended sessions. Featuring a snug, performance-fit cut and a high 50+ UPF rating, this garment effectively blocks harmful UV rays while staying securely in place amidst waves. While the form-fitting design provides excellent utility in the water, those who prefer a loose, casual fit may find the tight compression feel to be a departure from standard streetwear sizing.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A 50+ rating indicates the fabric blocks 98% or more of the sun's UVA and UVB rays.
It is perfectly suitable for swimming, snorkeling, or any water sport where you require sun protection and movement security.
This vest is designed for a performance, snug fit. If you prefer a more relaxed fit for casual wear, you might consider sizing up, though this may impact its performance in the water.
No. Heat from a dryer can damage the recycled polyester and elastic fibers. Always air-dry in the shade.
It provides minimal thermal protection. It is primarily designed for sun protection and anti-chafing, not as a replacement for a wetsuit in cold water.
The vest is designed with a performance-fit cut. Ensure the fabric is not twisted and pull it on gradually to distribute the compression evenly.
Ensure you are rinsing the garment with fresh water after every use. Saltwater crystals can break down elastic fibers if left to dry inside the fabric.
There is no complex setup for this garment; simply slip it on prior to entering the water. For the best fit, ensure the garment is pulled taut over your torso to maximize the performance-cut benefits.
