FAQs

What is the primary benefit of this shirt?

The shirt offers a combination of insect repellent treatment and UPF 50+ sun protection, making it ideal for outdoor activities in sunny and potentially insect-prone environments.

Is this shirt suitable for cold weather?

No, this is a lightweight shirt designed for active performance and warmer conditions. It is not insulated and would not provide sufficient warmth in cold weather.

How long does the insect repellent treatment last?

The duration of the treatment's effectiveness depends on usage and care. Following the recommended washing instructions will help maintain its efficacy for as long as possible. It may diminish over extended periods of use and washing.

Can I wash this shirt in a washing machine?

Yes, the shirt can be machine washed at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

Does the shirt have pockets?

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels damp after washing.

Ensure the shirt is spun adequately during the wash cycle. Hang it in a well-ventilated area or use a tumble dryer on a low setting. The quick-drying nature means it should dry within a few hours.

Insect repellent seems less effective.

The effectiveness of the treatment can decrease over time. Ensure you are following the washing and care instructions precisely. Consider if the shirt has undergone extensive use or washing cycles.

Zipper is stiff or snagging.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of wax or a graphite pencil lead to the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
